March 19, 201115 yr Throw out the wackiest of the wacky, or the most serious of the serious. My serious prediction is that Jake Peavy is the White Sox best starter this year. My wacky prediction is that Chris Sale closes out the final game of the 2011 World Series, and opens 2012 as the 5th starter (because this organization is not dumb).
March 19, 201115 yr Serious: Sergio Santos becomes the closer at some point this season, Beckman and Ramirez make All-Star team as reserves, Dunn breaks Borchard's record for longest homer in USCF history Wacky: Lastings Milledge finishes in the Top 10 in the AL MVP race, Oney gets a job at Baseball Tonight Edited March 19, 201115 yr by caulfield12
March 19, 201115 yr QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Mar 18, 2011 -> 11:14 PM) Out There: Carlos Quentin is traded for Jose Contreras at the trade deadline. Wouldn't that be weird...
March 20, 201115 yr I will go ahead and get started. Lastings Milledge will be a starting OF for the White Sox by June 1. Morel hits at least .280 on the season. Buehrle has a 5.00+ ERA on the year. Danks has a sub-3.00 ERA on the year. Your turn.
March 20, 201115 yr QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Mar 20, 2011 -> 03:14 PM) Didn't we already have a BOLD predictions thread like a month or so ago? I have no clue. If I knew, I would not have started this one.
March 20, 201115 yr There is a prediction thread that wite started still on the first page.. just sayin.

Have I missed something? Let's combine this thread and the "Out on a limb" thread.

March 21, 201115 yr Not a prediction. But I want to let all of Soxtalk know that if Thornton sports a better K-rate, WHIP, FIP, save% and saves overall than Soria I will get the Bieber tattoo. And to make it more interesting, he only has to trump Soria in 3 of those 5 categories for me to get the tat. J4L keeps his word. So save this post. Put it in your sigs or whatever.

Whatever, you caught the fever and already got the tattoo, so you're not even sticking your neck out. Looks like this on your lower back: Edited March 21, 201115 yr by Leonard Zelig

March 21, 201115 yr I'll just copy my predictions over from the other threads.... I'm going to say that Morel has a better season than Beckham did in 2009, but of course falls short of the ROY award because of some A's reliever. Also, Mr. Dunn is going to put a ball on the fan deck in center, making us forget about Jim Thome's long blasts. I can't find my post, because I can't find the offseason thread, but I am pretty sure I said when we signed Humber that he would win our 5th starter spot and do a pretty decent job filling in for Peavy.
March 21, 201115 yr Hot Fire will seize the 3B job by May 1st, make 40 errors, and fail to draw a walk in 450 ABs.
March 21, 201115 yr Juan Pierre will have a down year defensively. As far as wacky, I'll say Carlos Quentin actually stays healthy for the entire year and has the GW hit to win the pennant. Edited March 21, 201115 yr by SoxAce
