Are the WS good enough this year to win the World Series?

Baseball Prospectus' PECOTA gives the sox just a 13% chance to win the central this year. The Twins are still the favorite with the indians just behind. PECOTA projects just an 83-79 record this year, but as we know, anything can happen in the expanded playoff.

If this sox team gets hot at the right time, they could absolutely make a playoff run. I think they could use a little bit of bullpen help, and the back two starters dont exactly dazzle me. The sox will be right there with the twins smashing bombs, but with the addition of Simmons, and that Maeda, Berrios, Pineda, Happ rotation, I think the twins still win their 3rd straight division title. Don't sleep on Shane Bieber and the tribe as well. And once Mize, Manning and Skubal are up in Detroit, there's going to be about 13 ace pitchers in the AL central. Gonna be a fun division to watch this year....other than watching KC lose 105
