Like... in 2015? Probably last? That offense is pretty terrible.

People would be very happy with the draft pick position, and there would be no need cheering for losses as those would come by the dozens naturally.

 

If this is supposed to be White Sox draft picks, Davidson, Santos and Cotts don't belong.

Yes, I'm aware of that...there's virtually no way to fill out a team without going to minor leaguers or former minor leaguers in our system.

 

I don't even think Chris Getz is still playing baseball, or Josh Fields. Maybe Fields is...

 

 

I only included Santos because we basically "reinvented" him as a pitcher, so you can't say the Sox don't deserve at least 50% or more of the credit for that one.

Why leave out Chris Sale?

 

 

Because I was trying to make a team out of former Sox minor leaguers and/or current ones.

 

Then the infield would be obviously be Abreu, Beckham, Alexei, Viciedo probably in the OF over Sweeney, etc.

Chris Sale has only been a member of the White Sox organization for his whole career, and spent about as much time in the minors as Gordon Beckham.

Last by mile.

He only wanted an excuse to mention Carter, Morse and Young

Yea not one of Caulfield's best threads, although some people probably won't be surprised here.

Now that's a line up. 50 homers and 60 rbi's a possibility for Abreu there.

 

EDIT: And why does Josh Paul have to be on the Sox? He did much more for us as an opponent than he ever did for us as a member of the team.

In a time warp or black hole.

 

Who's Jose Phegley? His Cuban cousin?

 

No John Ely? Scott Eyre?

The Phegley surname is actually an Americanized version of a Swiss/German name. So if he were in fact Josh Phegley's cousin, he would have to have gotten the Cuban heritage from his mother.

 

It sure is crazy how Phegley went to SoxTalk darling to irrelevant in a short span. Is his hitting now a result of Charlotte's stadium? Either way, I don't think he's the answer at catcher. Could the Sox go a Martin/John Buck/Kurt Suzuki direction in the offseason? With Dunn coming off the books they might be able to spend. But that begs another question, is Wilkins a starter?

 

It would be unlike Robin to insert Wilkins in a platoon like we saw Ozzie do in 2007 with Erstad/Mackowiak/Owens.

 

Suzuki signed an extension with the Twins. Buck's done, pretty much. And Russell Martin will have 10-12 teams going after him, so it depends on the price and the fit.

Why don't you include Sale, Abreu, or Alexei?

Or Q. He was a minor leaguer when he was stolen from the Yankees.
