With Riley Greene with a bad foot delaying his arrival for now, they keep improving that roster. Edited April 5, 2022 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chw42 Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 This division went from having 2 80+ win teams to possibly having 4 80+ win teams. Shit is getting real. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Parkman Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 (edited) We cannot take the idea that the Sox are going to win the division for granted. Every team in the ALC is capable of winning 82-85 games, with the right breaks in player development. The Sox have the highest ceiling but no ALC game will be a cakewalk this year.

CWSpalehoseCWS Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 It's amazing how the Rays trade one of their best offensive producers and they'll still end up being competitive somehow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might end up going the prospect route, but I wouldn't be shocked at all if Rays pixie dust happens and they get ~4 WAR out of a Brett Phillips/Harold Ramirez platoon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Meadows always kicks our ass, so from that standpoint, this really sucks. He has a 1.225 OPS against us in 49 PAs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOFHurt35 Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 We just added a 3 WAR player from 2021 and they added a 2 WAR player. You guys just like to freak out about everything.

Making half his starts in Comerica helps. This could be the most disappointing Sox season since 1995. I'm really nervous about the young talent the Tigers and Royals have, the Twins are no slouches and the Guardians can really pitch. This is NOT 2021.

It could be ok, but there are a lot of pitfalls and I don't think that the other four teams in the division are as far behind the Sox as most think.

I'm really nervous about the young talent the Tigers and Royals have. I understand that the Torkelson and Witt could be gangbusters and be worth way more than what the projection systems have them tabbed at. But they could also struggle at first like Kelenic did last year. There are no guarantees. You also have to consider that the Sox have a similar kind of guy in Vaughn, who could very well be a big offensive contributor this year. He also wouldn't have to get over the growing pains of being a rookie like those other 2. Neither of those teams have a guy like Robert who can take a leap from being a very good player to a borderline MVP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
