Crazy Spring Training Predictions Heading Into Opening Day

Featured Replies

Based on what we're seeing/hearing in spring training what are some predictions on the team heading into spring training.

 

Here's one:

 

The White Sox will buy out John Dank's remaining salary and he will not make the OD roster.

The White Sox will trade for Christian Yelich

The White Sox eat John Danks' contract and trade for Astros OF Preston Tucker

I don't know what the cost would be but man, I hope your prediction comes true!

LaRoche stays injured and Travis Ishikawa makes the OD roster, putting up similar if not better numbers to LaRoche for the rest of the season.

This isn't a prediction. I'm just hoping La Roche and Danks are not on the 2016 White Sox Opening Day roster. I don't care if they're traded or released. I just hope that they are both gone. It's time to move on without those two stinking up the team.

Why the hate for LaRoche this early? I would get it if he's just doing awful throughout spring training, but didn't he hit a homer in his first or second game?

 

Wouldn't it be reasonable that their might be a bit of a bounce back this year?

 

He's owed money, so why not see if there is a bounce back, I agree that he should be immediately replaced if there are no signs of such bounce back.

 

Danks on the other hand... I haven't heard much good from him in years.

Nobody on SoxTalk calls Sox ownership cheap.

White Sox move Danks to the pen.

Trade for Jay Bruce.

You can bet the house on this prediction. ;)

Lawrie has a breakout year with 25+ HR's and 85 RBI and ,800 OPS but starting rotation carries the Sox into the playoffs.

John Danks goes 33-0 with a 0.00 ERA, wins the MVP, CY, and GG Awards, and leads the Sox to the World Series.

Jose Quintana will his worst year with the Sox, but will still get 16+ wins. Media outlets will then begin to talk about him being one of the best values (output/contract) in baseball.

LaRoche hits 15 bombs against RHP and Avi hits 10 against LHP as a DH platoon

Latos wins Comeback Player of the Year

Robin Ventura wins Manager of the Year

Sox average 29,000 a game

One of Jackson or Latos delivers a comp pick when they leave here.
