The Chicago White Sox 2013 Preview/Drinking Game: Pitching and Predictions!

In case you missed it, make sure to check out the first part of this preview in which I discuss the MLB, the AL Central, White Sox acquisitions, and the Sox everyday lineup.
Chris Sale: Representin' for the gangstas all across the world (and FGCU).

The Rotation: (2012 stats)

The White Sox hope to continue their strong track record of keeping pitchers healthy, and with a strong bullpen and John Danks floating somewhere along the horizon, the pitching staff is promising, if not awe-inspiring. Keep in mind that I will use mostly traditional statistics with the exception of FIP, which measures what a player’s ERA should have looked like over a given time period, assuming that performance on balls in play and timing were league average.

The Ace- Chris Sale- #49- Throws: Left- (17-8, 3.05 ERA, 192 IP, 192K, 3.27 FIP)
Key 2012 Stat: 4.8 WAR
