March 25, 201412 yr Thoughts? Daryl Van Schouwen @CST_soxvan 11m Bovada has over/under props on Jose Abreu. Home runs at 28 1/2, RBI at 85 1/2 for 2014 season.
March 25, 201412 yr It's just a guess and we will be hearing a lot of people's guesses in the next week or so especially from the commentators and sports writers. But, it's always fun when we have positive feedback on a Sox player

March 25, 201412 yr Hopefully he's durable to play enough to get to those numbers, but I'm going to say they'll protect him a little this year, and he'll play about 140-145 games. 24 homers, 78 rbis
March 26, 201412 yr I think my prediction a while back was 28/106, making the assumption that he would be a great hitter w/RISP.
March 26, 201412 yr Under/under. Expecting some adjustment time, plus we've seen the Cubans don't like April in Chicago. Although would anyone here be disappointed with 25/80? The RBI projection isn't that high relative to the homers, but with this lineup that's probably fair.

I would be perfectly happy with 25/80, as long as it's .275+. That right there probably gets him a ROY award, unless Tanaka debuts just as well. 25/80/.275 would be nearly identical to what Prince Fielder did last year, but if, unlike Prince, Abreu can be just an average 1B, that type of season should net him a 3+ WAR, which would have put him #1 among AL rookies last year.
March 26, 201412 yr I hope over, and only if the adjustment period isn't too long or draining on him but I can't help but think as mature a hitter he is he won't hit a couple stumps throughout the season so if money was involved i'd go under....although barely. 23/74
