Yay!

Now we get to see another (bad) Sox pitching prospect, courtesy of Dwayne Shaffer (or however his name was spelled, I’m way to lazy to go look it up).

How long before the Blue Jays bash in Broadways brains?

I swear, that’s the way I talk. It’s not something I tried to consciously do.

You are meant to be together.

Peas and carrots. Don’t fight it.

We’re a pack of a-holes.

there is trouble brewing in the southside

no grinders left on the roster… new comers never learned to grind, ex-grinders are tired of it.

one more shut out and Fire Greg Walker will be in full swing

Lupe, release the balloons!

Youre forgetting Getz.

It's like he's a cyborg sent from the future to draw 22 walks a season or something.

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

Up next: Second baseman Clayton Richard

Soft grounders to the right side will never be so exciting

He played there in college

May as well give him a trial. If he succeeds, the Sox don’t need to keep Owens around.

But Egbert’s demotion does not mean he has dropped completely from the big-league picture.

“It’s not fair for the kid to come out for two outings and all of a sudden, he’s down in the Minor Leagues,” said White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen of Egbert. "I think we need a guy fresh to be here. That’s the reason we did it. Egbert yesterday, he throw seven ground balls. We couldn’t catch it or it was in the right place for the Toronto hitters. It’s not something you can control.

“You can’t do nothing about it. Now I know what he can bring and what he can do. We worry about can he recover for two innings and other stuff, all the little things behind the scenes. I like what I see. He no was the greatest one, but I see a lot of ground balls and I like that.”
