Re: Biggest Disappointment/Suprise (player) in Franchise

*sits back and waits for someone to say Trout or Kershaw*

Maybe I expect too much from Jose Abreu but he's hovering batting around .260-.265 and his HR totals are only on pace for 20 on the season unless he ticks it up a notch over the summer.
Todd Frazier
is actually surprising me as he's sitting at .280 for average.
Yoan Moncada
, no surprize there, he's a virtual video game god HoF bound.
I needed Jose Quintana to Cy Young the Sox to the playoffs, and though he holds his own, he's no Chris Sale.
There are a few ex-Oriole pitchers I would tend to avoid (Wei-Yin Chen, Bud Norris, Yovani Gallardo)
but Miguel Gonzalez quickly became one of my go-to guys for the Pale Hose.
I know Mayckol Guaipe is garbage hence his removal from the Show, but I still was hopeful in his one call-up relief appearance.
His lone 2/3 of an inning for me was enough to quickly release him back into the wild.
Frankly I dont know how he got 2 major league batters out, let alone 1.
Leury Garcia
didnt make the cut on the 25 man roster but I did give him a cup of coffee and come September if I dont have a chance at a WC then he'll get more of a chance as I can plug him into anywhere defensively.

overall IMO this is the more interesting Chicago team to play with in 2017 and it want take a hundred plus years to win it all for the Second City, even if I dont win it in '17.
