2 months in, coming up on the draft, seemed like a good time to bump this thread. Also, saw some discussion in other threads of who supposedly did or didn't see this team contending.

 

Of the 64 votes in the poll, only 5 put them in 95+ loss territory. The large majority figured for over .500, with the bell curve forming around the 82-85 win band.

 

Some of the posts are interesting. Will be fun to come back to this again in August, and in October.

Wow. 75% of the people on here think the Sox will finish over .500.

 

Incredible. I thought I was high back in college.

 

This one is a gem.

 

Too early to bump it?

 

f*** it. Seems that most was right, regardless to what happens the next 6 games.

They'll start off decent, but with some growing pains in the bullpen and on defense. By May they'll be in the race, and stay there near until August, ans the team starts to gel and hit. Peavy pitches surprisingly well, almost like old Peavy... Dunn has a big comeback year... Beckham does better than last year but still not quite there... and Rios sucks, but Fukudome takes more playing time. Then Peavy, Sale and possibly Humber start to feel the wear of massively increased innings, and start to dog down and struggle. One or two might even be shut down or moved to the pen, replaced by Molina or Axelrod or Castro. The team fades through September, but is on the outside edge of the WC race until the last week. 82-85 wins, and about 5 games short of the 2nd wildcard.

 

Other than Rios (who I was very wrong about), I was pretty close.
