Thome's 2009 option kicks in
Jim Thome's $13 million contractual option for 2009 with the White Sox kicked in this weekend in Kansas City by virtue of his ninth-inning strikeout on Saturday night.
Thome needed either 600 plate appearances in 2007 or 1,100 between the last two seasons to guarantee the option, leaving him with 564 to pick up in 2008. With his four plate appearances on Sunday, Thome has 568.

What's the sound made when you miss the ball for another strikeout... SWISH!

he'll be done next year. asshole was padding his PAs in meaningless situations this year in order to feed at the trough next year.
the difference between a twins homer and a communist is that the communist knows what he's doing.
