Adam Dunn has a career year batting .265 with 44 HRs and 112 RBIs.

 

Konerko struggles a bit early but heats up down the stretch. Still has a down year with 23 HRs and 91 RBIs.

 

Peavy wins 15 games.

 

Sale wins 17 games and makes the All Star team.

 

The Sox are in it all year, and the division comes down to the last week of the season.

 

Hawk yells "Stretch, stretch, get on back there!" in an at bat where Dunn hits a pop up to second base. He then says, "He just missed that one."

 

An early April game is postponed due to snow.

 

100 randomly polled people in Kansas think that Ozzie is funnier than Robin.

 

Out to prove he's a good manager, Robin visits local restaurants to see if people will smile at him.

This is outstanding.

- Morel is hitting in the 3rd spot by June

- Paul Konerko steals two bases this year

- Adam Dunn hits the longest home run in the history of the Cell

- Hector Santiago is our closer from day 1 and keeps the job

- AJ finishes the year catching for the Marlins

- A key White Sox players suffers a season-ending injury before end of May

- Robin Ventura doesn't manage the 2013 White Sox

- Gordon Beckham is traded at the deadline

- K. Fukudome is our most reliable outfielder at the plate/in the field

I'm going out on a limb here, Gavin Floyd will win 20 games.

 

Chris Sale impresses as a starter winning 14/15 games.

 

Gordon Beckham wins gold glove AND silver slugger award at 2B.

 

Rios has a great first half, teams will become interested, management ponders trading him to unload his salary. Fukudome replaces him as the every day RF for the remainder of the season.

Hawk and Stoney get into a donnybrook.

Robin wins MOY.

Kenny moves upstairs willingly to let Rick Hahn fix his mess.

Sox are close enough for ONE BIG FINAL TRADE, which will actually work out.

Bench clearing brawl with the Tigers in the first series of the year against them. Robert Fick comes out of the stands and levels Alexei...Dunn sits on Fick.

Resignation or firing?

Positive thoughts for 2012:

 

AJP as AJP

Paulie as Paulie

Lillibridge as Aaron Rowand, sub but part of every game

Brent Morel as Crede

Alexei as Juan Uribe 1/2 size

Adam Dunn as an 06 Jim Thome

Alexandro De Aza as Scottie Pods with pop

Alex Rios as Jermaine Dye

The Tank as a 03/04 Carlos Lee

Escobar as Pablo Ozuna

Gord0n Beckham as the real Gordon Beckham

Fukodome as a Ross Gload/Geoff Blum

Tyler Flowers as better then Chris Widger

 

 

John Danks as Mark Buerhrle

Gavin Floyd as Jose Contreras (05 & 06)

Chris Sale as 2000 Randy Johnson

Jake Peavy as Freddy Garcia 2011

Phillip Humber as Jon Garland (05 & 06)

 

No El Duque

 

Zach Stewart as Luis Vizcaino

Santigo as 05 Neal Cotts

Crain as 05 Cliff Politte but better

Thorton as Dustin Hermanson

Addison Reed as Jenks 05

 

Still probably finish 5 games behind Tigers

Viciedo gets less than 400 at bats, either because of injury or because of being treated as a platoon player.

 

Alex Rios has a good enough first half that he would be tradeable and people call about him, but the Sox elect to hold onto him and he has a poor 2nd half.

 

thus a repeat of exactly what happened in 2010?
