Viciedo, who carries 246 puffy pounds on a 6-foot-1 frame, could compete for jobs at third and in the outfield because many scouts believe he is a big-league hitter right now. It doesn't look like the White Sox got any better. There's plenty of bat here, particularly for a club that led the world in home runs (235) last season. Carlos Quentin returns from his wrist fracture. Ramirez returns from a superb rookie season, now to play shortstop. Fields (knee) and Owens (groin) should be healthy. And there's still hope to add a second baseman, perhaps Brian Roberts from the Orioles. It's not bad. It's certainly enough to hang near the top of the division, if the back end of the rotation amounts to anything. It's just not better, which is why you get the idea Williams isn't quite done here.

You also could argue there are only a couple of – if any – players in their primes (depending on your definition), leading to the kind of offensive inconsistencies the White Sox endured last season. from cbssportsline.com Edited February 1, 200917 yr by caulfield12
