Jose Contreras was very upset when he heard the news about Ozuna, and he’s pitching like a guy whose mind is somewhere else.

Like Felix and Oscar

Pablo was the neat freak, Jose was the slob.

However, Jose caught, Pablo pitched. Interesting relational dynamic.

I used to actually enjoy Cowley

but I’m starting to like him a little bit less every time he twitters something. Was Cowley Ozuna’s personal driver or what? I think he is the one who’s mind is elsewhere.

I liked Cowley when he was with the Southtown

Ever since he’s moved to the Sun Times it has been downhill.

All Star Joe!

The greatest trick the White Sox ever pulled was convincing their fan base that "Ozzieball" ever existed.

Yep...this new automated dishwashing technology is great...

Plus I’m pretty sure it doesn’t count as heavy machinery, so I was able to drink freely.

Of course, tomorrow morning I may wake up to find I put the forks on the top rack, but that’s just the kind of crazy night this is….

Jose should be out of the game at this point

Or at least a coach should bring a cell phone out to the mound so he can talk to pablo.
