July 12, 200520 yr Ryne Sandberg , Yahoo Sports, picks sox world series in chicag. However he did say St louis will win it because of their hitting and improved pitching. What's your thoughts?

July 12, 200520 yr Ryno did pick us to win the division in the beginning of the year- have to give him props for that. Who knows- maybe Ryno has psychic capabilities? Jonny Daman was intervied by a Comcast dude and he also said the Sox have what it takes to win the world series. Peter Gammons said every little leager should watch the White Sox play because thats 'How baseball should be played" Starting to get the respect around the league yikes!

July 12, 200520 yr QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Jul 12, 2005 -> 06:09 PM) Look at the front page. Who the hell are these people?? there's reasons why the oldies tend to stick to the other forums.
July 13, 200520 yr ignore the criticism and ignore the praise. just go to Cleveland and put some air back in the tires.
July 13, 200520 yr Peter Gammons picked the Sox to goto the series around this time last year when frank was still around and maggs was coming back.......screw experts.......we got a long way to go and a lot of work to do

July 13, 200520 yr Injuries of course will play the biggest role but if they both make it to Oct at full strength then I see a closely fought battle. Gm's 1&2 at the Cell: Mulder vs Mark: adv Mark (wind will factor & experience counts) Carpenter vs Garcia: toss up at least 1 day off Gm's 3,4,5 at STL: Morris vs Jon: toss up Marquis vs El Duque: adv El Duque (NL rules make it easier for him to get out of jams) Mulder vs Mark: adv Mulder at least 1 day off Gm's 6, 7 at the Cell: Carpenter vs Garcia: toss up Morris vs Jon: toss up* *But gm 7 is anything goes. Who is likely to pitch better on 1 day's rest? Mulder or Mark? Mark. Who is more likely to pitch better at the Cell? El Duque or Marquis? El Duque. Who is likely to be more effective in long relief at the Cell? Suppan or Contra? Contra. So w/out question in gm's 1 & 7 the adv is with the White Sox. Gm 5 favors the Cards but there is that Mark playing before is hometown fans angle. Which leaves the White Sox needing to just split the toss up games to win the World Series. Yep. The All-Star game makes that much of a difference now

If the great peter gammons prasies us, then this must be the year!
July 13, 200520 yr There is a whole lot of baseball left to be played. This team is not deep. 1st and 3rd are problems if Kong and Crede go down. And before the Gload fan-boys come running, I'll agree if healthy, he's a great replacement. We have a solid 3-man rotation. Hell, everyone knows the weak spots. I could not see a scenario where we do not make the playoffs, I can see a first round exit.
