    Value Alert: Chicago White Sox +2000 to win AL
    Their batting will come around soon. Pitching staff of Sale, Smardijiza, Quintana, Rodon. Bullpen not terrible. I think they can get it together and win the division.

      Lol +9000. I'm sure you can get those odds later in the season. Div is a coinflip.

        to win the AL Central, you mean?

        I'd offer you 20/1 for points if you want

          i just dont think they win it and think 2000 is a bad line. we will see

          royals and tigers are just way better than white sox

            +2000 is 5%.
            I think that's spot on.
            Look at the lineup. Abreu is and will be the only real threat. Melky's power is gone since he doesn't juice anymore, LaRoche is getting old, Ramirez was a little bit lucky last year with his power outburst (15 HR after 8 and 6 before), Avisail Garcia will come down to earth, too, as his BABIP is much too high.
            The bullpen has improved a lot compared to previous seasons but their rotation isn't much better in reality than the rotation of the Tigers or Royals IMO.
            And both Royals and Tigers have the much better lineup.

            This division indeed will be a coinflip but more between the Tigers and Royals. Don't think that the Sox will play a huge role.

              Royals/Tigers
              Royals/Tigers
              Indians/White Sox
              Indians/White Sox
              Twins

              is how I think it plays out

              Indians/White Sox/Twins COMBINED may have a 10% chance.

              White Sox alone definitely not 5%.

                IMO White Sox are the absolute worst team in the American League.

                    White Sox I have rated as the worst team in baseball Dane I will root for myself to be way off and you have a chance at the end of the season.

                      They suck right now, but that won't last. Unless he's hurt, Sale will be dominate. Noesi will be replaced with Rodon who has ace potential.

                      They basically have a roster of guys about to rebound.

                      If I could find a future on them winning the division, I'd take that over the AL. ...but if they just make the playoffs, they have a chance.

                        Not a bad pick at all, they actually have very few holes in roster at all, (one of the better off-season's), divisions just too tough and they don't have truly enough pitcher depth for October).

                          You can get around 7-1 for division.

                              mngambler just decided to be an asshole today, it's okay though. Dane sees the potential of this team and there's nothing wrong with that.

                                It's okay. He gets a little cranky the day after Trever May outings. Don't blame him honestly.

                                  I think KC is plus $ to win division...that has some value...along with Royals to win AL again...think they have what it takes to repeat.
