As promised, here’s a lot of reading material for the rest of our off day: *Ozzie Guillen used his pre-game soap box to ask why Latino ballplayers don’t have interpreters readily available for them like Japanese ballplayers do, and also said that Major League Baseball doesn’t pay much attention to PED usage by the players [...]
Randy only has three A’s now
Randy Williams was a lot of things to a lot of people: a husband, a father, a redneck, left-handed, a flash-in-the-plan. But to Sox fans, he was mostly just the last two. And so RAAAAAAAAAAAAANDY finds himself heading to Charlotte after losing a duel with Erick Threets during Wednesday’s loss. Threets had a nice White [...]
This ‘Bridge wasn’t burned
If Brent Lillibridge’s Twitter comes true, it looks like an old friend is joining the White Sox: Getting to Chi could not be hardr flight cancll, switch to another flight delay 2 hours back to Charlotte. So can’t fly out til tomorrow. No official announcement has been made, but in this universe in which Lillibridge [...]
Santos breakin’ camp with big-league club
Congratulations to Sergio Santos. Just one year ago, he was giving up hopes of becoming a major-league shortstop. Today, he’s made an Opening Day roster as a major-league reliever. If he doesn’t pull a Larry Yount, Santos wins a White Sox prize pack including… *A major-league salary! With per diem and perks. *A major-league nickname! [...]
Goin’ mobile
After a successful test run on State of the Sox, I’ve activated a plugin that will make browsing and commenting on this blog a lot easier on many smartphones, such as the iPhone, Droid, Pre, various Blackberries and others. Give it a shot, and let me know if you have any problems. My phone ain’t [...]
Daniel Hudson, come on down (updated)
I’ll give Kenny Williams credit — his moves may not go over well with the mainstream media or a large percentage of the fan base, but it’s going to be pretty interesting for the baseball geeks among us. While Ozzie Guillen was preparing to not use Bobby Jenks in a key late-inning situation in favor [...]
Go West, Old Men: What do the Thome, Contreras trades mean?
As August came to an end, Kenny Williams officially brought his team’s postseason hopes to a close. The Gentleman Masher is now a Gentleman Dodger. The White Sox traded Jim Thome for Justin Fuller, who will never be more famous than he is right now. Somehow, they also sent Jose Contreras to Colorado for something [...]
Writing was on wall for four-pack of pitchers
While Jake Peavy won’t begin his rehab stint for another couple of weeks, Clayton Richard made an immediate impact for the San Diego Padres. He allowed just one run (a solo homer) over 5 2/3 innings, allowing more walks (three) than hits (two). He seemed to lose effectiveness his second and third time through — [...]
Lillibridge down, Nunez up
Jhonny Nunez gets a chance to prove the Nick Swisher trade wasn’t just a pure salary dump, as he replaces Brent Lillibridge on the 25-man roster. More tonight.
White Sox acquire Peavy (update)
It’s a done deal. The final tally: Jake Peavy for Aaron Poreda, Clayton Richard, Dexter Carter and Adam Russell. Kenny Williams is the master of “Shock and Hm.” After getting leveled by the surprise of it all, I recover and find that I have no strong feelings either way. It’s a fair deal. The Padres [...]
