Carlos Quentin Sleeps in His Uniform
Had the White Sox reached the second round of the playoffs last month, left fielder Carlos Quentin likely would have been added to the active roster, Williams said. ''Last time I saw Carlos Quentin, he was hitting balls out of the ballpark to straightaway center field, telling me it won't be long before he's ready to play,'' Williams said of a chat that took place before Game 4 of the American League Division Series against the Tampa Bay Ray. ''Carlos was going to take live BP if we ended up going back to Tampa (for Game 5).'' Williams is confident Quentin will be ready when spring training opens in February. ''He's probably ready now,'' Williams said. ''Knowing Carlos, he might have his uniform on already, sitting in front of the TV with his bat.''

And, fortunately per the article above, Cub fans are still idiots.
Cubs fans still love their team, despite another postseason flop. Tickets went on sale Thursday for the January Cubs Convention and sold out in 24 minutes
Whoosh!
yeah, faithful fans are nothing if not idiots.

One of these days, the Rawlings Gold Glove people will realize that they really should stop lumping all outfielders. It’s ridiculous, really. All six Gold Glove outfielders were center fielders (Ichiro did move back to right at some point) — which is absolutely absurd. There were only 20 center fielders (again, including Ichiro) who played enough games to qualify for the ESPN fielding statistics, and SIX of them won Gold Gloves, about one in three. If you play center field in the big leagues, winning a Gold Glove is like being the seventh caller to the radio station.
And yet the Sox haven’t had a Gold Glover since Ventura….
Without looking it up can you name the last White Sox Gold Glover not named Ventura? (I had to look it up)

At least the voters realized the center fielders are better than the corner outfielders.
That doesn’t happen many years.
I agree all three outfield positions should be separated, but on some level it’s funny that we honor both the best shortstop and the best first basemen. I mean, is there a Cosmo award for best-looking bald woman or an Oscar for best movie to gross under $5MM?

third best DH last year? probably should cut him.
this really shows how fucking god awful the DH position was last year. so fucking awful that rocco baldelli, who played like 10 games or something and also received a slight fielding deduction, was eighth. jason bourgeois, perplexingly, also was fifteenth.

google says
The WAGS time when U.S.? It ’certainly the wonderful Danielle Gamba. The former Playboy coniglietta to be a thousand in this period. His love with baseball player of the Chicago White Sox, Nick Swisher is finished on the front pages of local gossip magazines.
The two are shown in public, have no fear to hide the paparazzi: from the most tender moments in banal situations such as sitting to browse the pages of a magazine, the couple does not miss its fan updates on the love story.
And while the 28enne born (his father was Stewie catcher in the years’70-’80 league in the U.S.) has gained last January, the jersey of the team in Chicago after three years at Oakland, Gamba is the most popular of semrpe world of showbiz.
The photos on the various newspapers ose sector (including Mystique Magazine, FHM and Maxim in his curriculum) not enough anymore. The model is increasingly in career and, thanks to this public report with a sample of sport, guadgana visibility from day to day. At that point the world of television has already called and next year should also get his film at the cinema …
I better not post the pictures from the article…

I am speaking as a Sox fan for 49 years.
No real (old) Sox fan applauds the enemy combatants on our home turf, unless it’s Ripken retiring or something. They were cheering the Sox. You are sadly mistaken. And if you were cheering the Rays, God have mercy on your soul.
That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.
