Cubs by at least 20 games in the regular season. The White Sox have the best MLB team Detroit, top 5 team Cleveland, and the always pesky Twins to deal with. They have one good starter and then who? They have no speed, who's their center fielder Brian Anderson, who can't even hit a fastball. Konerko starts out slow every year, and can't run. They signed Juan Uribe who has an OBP of .250. I will say that their bullpen is absolutely sick.
The Cubs have to deal with the Brewers and maybe a suprisng Cincy, Houston should be formidable as well. The Cubs have 8 guys trying to become starters, and some other great talent they will probably use to pick up a good #2 starter some time before the trading dead line, maybe sooner. Jon Lieber whould win 10 games as the number 5 starter. The Cubs will win 95 games, White Sox 64
And all you band wagon Sox fans, why don't you actually go to the games this year, The Cubs will win 5/6 this year and you will finish 2nd worst team in baseball.
