Call me a pessamist, but I really don't see much for our team. We lost
good pitchers and replaced them with offense and our weakness on 07 was
pitching. Unless we get the Mets to give up Santana cheep, I doubt
we'll do much... we don't have much in the way of pitching, and all the
bats in the world won't fix that.

AL East: Boston, NY Yankees, Toronto, Baltimore, Tampa Bay.
AL Central: Detriot, Cleveland, Minnesota, Chicago White Sox, Kansas

AL Wild Card: NY Yankees

NL East: NY Mets, Philedelphia, Atlanta, Florida, Washington
NL Central: St. Louis, Milwaulkie, Houstan, Chicago Cubs, Cincinati,
Pittsburgh
NL West: San Diego, Colorado, Arizona, San Fransisco

NL Wild Card: Philedelphia

World Series: Red Sox over Mets in 7

Hopefully I'm proven wrong, but in my mind, the White Sox enter 08 with
far more questions then potential.

Any suggestions for who the big trade will be?

 

I hope it's Brian Roberts.

It should be an interesting season!  Detroit looks really good and I
know Cleveland will be tough too.  The Sox have to come out strong and
do well in their series and especially so with these two teams.  The
Twins will be lucky to finish ahead of the Royals so we shouldn't have
to worry about them this season.

Go Sox!  Go Buehrle!!

The Tigers have a veritable murderers row.  Let's go Sox.

Poor Josh!  If any young player deserves to be in the Major Leagues it is him.

White Sox make roster moves

TUCSON, Ariz. -- The Chicago White Sox have made the following four
roster moves:

INF Josh Fields was optioned to Class AAA Charlotte;
INF Jason Bourgeois, RHP D.J. Carrasco and C Paul Phillips were
reassigned to minor-league camp.
With the moves, the White Sox have 28 players remaining in camp: 13
pitchers, two catchers, seven infielders and six outfielders.
This story was not subject to the approval of Major League Baseball or
its clubs.

I agree. Maybe sort of become the Sox version of Ryan Braun, lol!
