This will be an interesting year for the White Sox because they are going to find out what they have in Viciedo, Quintana, Santiago, and Flowers while finding out what Konerko has left in the tank. If the White Sox can get significant contributions from the young guys with contributions from the veterans they can contend. If the young guys contribute but the veterans go in the tank, well you have something to build for in the future. If the young guys suck, well, then the White Sox have a lot of problems looming for 2014 and beyond.

Quintana, he relies more on deception a little bit. That said, I agree he is still learning how to pitch. Hopefully I am wrong, I would love to be. Also, with Santiago, do not discredit his screwball. He is still learning to harness that pitch, but if he does, its going to be an out pitch.

We either need to go rebuild or buy......Sox seem to always be stuck in the middle somewhere...
I'd like to see Thompson, Mitchell, and Sanchez playing in 2012.......Deal Rios, Dunn, Floyd, and Thornton. Trayce Thompson will one of 1-2-3 hitter by 2015

League differential. Their secondary stats are nearly identical.

Yeah. I get that argument. I just don't buy it. We're talking about almost a full run differential (like .78 career). Not to mention, in his time in Detroit Sanchez still posted an ERA under 4 (once again, something Floyd has NEVER done in any season).

Yes, Danks will be back. But, he is a big questionmark in my book. It is yet to be determined how he will return from surgery. I actually am a bit worried that he just won't cut it.

If Peavy can come back from his injury and surgery the way he did, I'm sure Danks can also.

I'm comfortable counting on a full recovery from Danks, but Danks' and Peavy's injuries, prognoses, and recoveries are completely different.

The projected 2013 rotation looks strong. With Sale and Peavy atop the rotation, Danks and Floyd may thrive as the #3/#4 starters (as they did in 2008), and I'm comfortable sticking the winner of the Quintana/Santiago competition in the #5 spot (with the loser in Charlotte or the long relief role).

Pitching and defense looks very solid. Hitting should at least be average but if Flowers shows that he can hit than we will be looking real good. |

That said, despite what many here think, I can see Viciedo continuing to develop into a solid middle of the order hitter, and what Keppinger brings to the top of the order may more than make up for the overall reduction in power. Perhaps Gordon will finally get comfortable not being shuttled around the order like the last 3 years, and the offense as constructed meshes much better than Sox teams of the past. Who knows. That's why they play the games! |

Do you actually know anything about the Sox farm or what? Where do you come up with these wants?
