[QUOTE="champaignchris, post: 1392030, member: 26283"] I know you Sox fans are probably sick of the Cubs comparisons, but I really see your team in about the same place as the ‘14 Cubs. That team got off to an awful 13-27 start exacerbated by a bullpen blowing a ton of games. Then Arrieta and Hendricks solidified the starting rotation and the team was only a couple games under .500 for the rest of the season. They then won 97 games in ‘15. I could really see something like that happening for this year’s Sox. If it clicks for a couple of your young pieces part-way through the season, you could be a competitive team going forward, especially in that miserable division, and then be ready to compete all year long in ‘19.
