Lots of "Ifs" is what concerns me.
If Willie Harris plays everyday at 2nd base, can he have an OBP around .400?
If Rowand is the opening day CF, can he bat his weight?
IF Garland decides to break out?
Every team starts 0-0 on April 1st or March 31st. In 2000, nobody had high expectations. We will see.
It just seems a lot has to go right for the Sox to compete right now.
