7 Bold Predictions For 2012 White Sox

[Uman85]

Here are some bold predictions I'm making for the White Sox 2012 campaign. What are yours?


1. Adam Dunn will hit over 30 HRs and finish hitting over .255.
2. Paul Konerko will be an All-Star once again.
3. Chris Sale will pitch just under 200 innings and finish with an ERA under 3.00.
4. John Danks will win 15 games.
5. Addison Reed will become the closer before May.
6. The White Sox will be less than 5 games back of the division lead at the All-Star break.
7. The White Sox rotation will be in the top 5 in team ERA in all of Major League Baseball.

If that all comes true then we are contenders with the Tigers

all but 6 and 7

Peavy has a career year in a walk year
Rios bounces back to 2010 stats (not great, but good)
Dunn wins come back player
Morel hits 20+ home runs
Addison Reed is the opening day closer and doesn't suck
Young arms in the pen are average
Sox finish first or second.

Morel better hit the Powerade if he's going to hit 20+ HR's.

all but 6 and 7

that's exactly what i was thinking. and maybe #4

Prediction: Peavy's arm is going to fall off. Not figuratively; literaly. He's going to throw and his arm will be laying somewhere between the mound and home plate.

 

[Capt. Serious]

Beckham hits 25+ doubles, plus 15 HR's, .275-.280 avg
Rios hits .280
Peavy wins 13 games

Nah, he's built to be a power hitter (20-25 range) I just don't think he's matured enough yet. He's like Crede.

Here's hoping he doesn't get overtaxed since the Sox never actually stretched him out before this spring, as far as I could tell.
