Top Players at each position in AL Central

SOX, Ramirez and Sale (over Kluber).

 

Cabrera (over Abreu), Kinsler (over Dozier), Plouffe (3B, most competitive/open field), M.Brantley (over Gordon), JD Martinez, Yan Gomes (over Perez), Lorenzo Cain, Victor Martinez, Holland/Escobar/Davis KC bullpen

 

 

4 Tigers, 2 Indians, 1 Twin, 2 Royals, 2 White Sox

 

 

Should have mentioned Robertson and Melky as being in the running at least...and Avisail, as RF seems pretty weak.

What about Finnegan and Duffy?

What about Finnegan and Duffy?

 

 

Finnegan's going to start in the minors (probably AA), just like Rodon.

 

Duffy will be fine.

 

 

What about the April Fool's Day joke? You really wanted to believe it, didn't you?

 

Reality check, I certainly would rather have Duffy and pay him $650,000 than pay John Danks 20 times that...but maybe you'd still prefer Danksie.

That's not the point. You basically said 2015 was over for the Sox because KC has Finnegan and Duffy. Have you changed your mind?

And what day did I say that? I'm guessing it was in October.

 

Probably it came before they added LaRoche, Robertson, Me.Cabrera, Duke, Samardzija, Soto, Beckham (pushed them over the top and past KC), Bonifacio, Rodon (to active roster), Crain, Albers, etc.

 

If the White Sox came back with the same team as ended 2014, yeah....2015 would have been over. With Viciedo starting again, I'm sure you believe the Sox are/would be the better team!!!

 

But what's your point, exactly?

 

 

That I should have gotten out a magic 8 ball and envisioned last October what Hahn was going to do this offseason...because I'm sure there are posts all over SoxTalk with you predicting/projecting exactly what has transpired, right?

 

Now you're just picking fights because you have nothing better to do with yourself, it seems.

The point is you must think Finnegan and Duffy are at the top of their position if the season is over because of them. And then you run this list. They aren't on the list, and you don't even support them on the list. I think that's a little odd.

 

And it wasn't October.

you mean you do not have Hahn's phone number..... sheesh what good are you.

Robertson, A. Garcia and Melky Cabrera aren't either.

 

They must suck.

 

How can the likes of Rodon and Finnegan be on any list when they're starting in the minors instead of relieving in the majors?

 

If you'll notice, they only had the TOP starters for each of the five teams.

 

Does that mean Jose Quintana and Jeff Samardzija also suck, or wouldn't/couldn't be the best pitcher on the Twins?

 

 

Yordano Ventura

Duffy

Edinson Volquez

Vargas

Guthrie

 

It's possible Volquez could be 2nd, but, then again, he could be out of baseball in two years. Anything's possible with that guy, just like Liriano.
