Not sure if serious with the Koyie Hill on the bench.

Really it is too early to be able to tell what these guys are going to be. It would be sweet if the big 3 make it, but it is hard to even guarantee that.

there is no way to predict their lineup in 2015, you are assumming all their position players are coming from in-house which is highly unlikely, though I understand why you went that route. just stick it out bro things will get better soon, and that's coming from a sox fan

if all those guys are on the squad and good in 2015 I will be shocked. most from the farm? very unlikely that they will all pan out. Might need to trade and do some FA deals

C Yadier Molina
1B Joey Votto
2B That guy from the movie theater that got busted for selling pot to minors in the M&M boxes
SS Castro... Fidel Castro
3B Resurrected Ron Santo
LF Someone related to Theo Epstein, like a 3rd cousin 6 times removed that he met at an aunt and uncle's 50th anniversary celebration back in 2001
CF Matt Szczur
RF Sammy Sosa Comeback Tour baby!!!!

Rotation
Random Dude's cousin's best friend's plumber
Jeff Samardzija's pet monkey
That chick who played the 3-breasted woman in the original Total Recall
Two words: Yngwie Malmsteen
Broken down pitching machine used by a Little League team on the Southside for batting practice

Well, this is only just slightly more unlikely than the original post anyway.

1) hasnt there been like 10 threads of this kind already

2) who the fuck knows what the roster is going to look like?

3) you're assuming that all the specs are going to pan out and be good, and be a contender (very doubtful) I bet the roster isnt close to that.

4) shark as an ace? really?

There will also be FA signings, if the team were to pan out like that. Especially to th starting rotation and 'pen.

Ya, we all know that... I specifically said "completely in-house" for a reason... it is more of a Cubs Minors fantasy draft per se.

Soler would be the RF. If we are going completely in house assuming everyone reaches their ceiling the pitchers would Vizcaino, Shark, Maples, Underwood, and Johnson. Maples and Underwood have a lot higher ceiling than Blackburn, but Blackburn is "safer" than those two who have a lot of inconsistencies with their mechanics.

C - Castillo (nope)
1B - Rizzo
2B - Barney/Baez (Baez prolly)
SS - Castro
3B - Baez/Vitters (hopefully Vitters but maybe not)
LF - Soler (50/50 on yes)
CF - Almora (no idea yet)
RF - Jackson/Szczur (50/50 on both)
SP - Samardzija, Vizcaino, Wood, Johnson, Blackburn (huge tossup on the starters)

what I think of Jntg's roster

Unless some of our pitchers can do anything in the minors the next few years.. by the time we have ANY amount of good hitters up.. We'll be getting free agent pitchers.
