DonkeyKongerko Posted March 6, 2004 Share Posted March 6, 2004 Not sure if this was posted yet but Blackjack seems to have the right idea in his AL Central projections for 2004. linky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnB Posted March 6, 2004 Share Posted March 6, 2004 In my best Hawk imitation........."I love Black Jack" But seriously, I agree with him totally. Of course I'm one of the more optimistic ones here. What a mediocre division we have here, but hey, someone's gotta do it. Any one of these teams could win because all it takes is a few breakout players and a little luck to win 85-90 games. But my guess is that Ozzie Guillen's Chicago White Sox will get this division. Sure, the Sox took the most significant losses this offseason, losing Bartolo Colon and Tom Gordon, but they should have walked away with the division last season. If you would have penciled in Esteban Loaiza for 21 victories prior to last season, they would have been runaway favorites. Colon's gone, but Loaiza remains along with Mark Buehrle and Jon Garland to front the rotation. Billy Koch still closes. Magglio Ordonez, Frank Thomas and Carlos Lee add the pop, and Joe Borchard remains a superstar in the rough who could make a huge impact soon. All in all, Chicago should have enough to win this division. But it should have been enough last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

witesoxfan Posted March 6, 2004 Share Posted March 6, 2004 I liked this quote myself, mainly because it is true and I can't wait. Tony Pena and Ozzie Guillen managing against each other ... crazy days are ahead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HighHeat45 Posted March 6, 2004 Share Posted March 6, 2004 i dont agree with his AL East, i think it will go Yanks Red Sox Orioles Blue Jays D-Rays Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighHeat45 Posted March 7, 2004 Share Posted March 7, 2004 Yankes Red Sox Blue Jays DEVIL RAYS O's I have a feeling Tampa might jump out of no where this season. Baldelli, Huff, Crawford, all becoming stars, and if they can get DECENT pitching, I think they will be a team not many teams will want to face. O's in last????? 3 words Tejada, Palmeiro, Lopez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
