Daniel Hudson: He's the one for whom just about everyone has been waiting. After starting the season in Kannapolis, Hudson had successful stints at each of the full season affiliates and now completes his stunning rise by joining the major league club. His blended line in the minors: 147.1 IP, 105 H, 34 BB, 166 K. His GO/AO rate of 0.86 (which declined at each successive level) is a worry considering the way flyballs tend to fly out of the park at the Cell. His delivery appears a bit unorthodox, which may explain some of his success. He relies on a fastball/slider combination. For a fuller scouting report, I'll refer you to Sox Machine.
Jhonny Nunez: He spent a bit of time with the White Sox earlier this season, pitching in two games for a total of one inning. His blended line between Birmingham and Charlotte was very good: 70.2 IP, 57 H, 26 BB, 79 K. The 24 year old righty, like many relievers, uses a fastball and slider (which is a plus pitch). He can mix in a changeup but it's not very good. He has quick arm action and generally throws from a low 3/4 slot.

Tyler Flowers, c, White Sox
Flowers is not slated to get much playing time for the White Sox until they completely fall out of the playoff race. But the Braves’ 2005 draft-and-follow will give a sneak peek as to why the White Sox expect him to be their everyday catcher in 2011. Acquired in the Javier Vazquez trade last winter, Flowers showed once again this year why he’s one of the better catching prospects in the minors, mainly because of his bat. He has plus power from the right side and enough patience to get into hitter’s counts where he can drive the ball. Behind the plate he’s still a work in progress. He continues to struggle to block balls in the dirt and threw out only 27 of 93 basestealers between Double-A and Triple-A.

Well, that if any of the Replacements
are playing, the season is toast. Not just Flowers.

Much better to have DeWayne in the lineup while they're still officially in it.
Oz is playing to win.

Yes, he is a kncuklehead.
Though to be fair, no DH today, and AJ has been our best/most consistently good player lately, even trhowing out Span twice last series!

Asked about his thoughts on the weekend, White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen said simply, "Well, we came to New York and visited the new Yankee Stadium. It is a very nice ballpark. We also stayed at a very nice hotel. That's all I can really say about these past three days."
i dont think so.

Went to a ticket broker this morning and the guy in front of me was trying to sell tix for today's game.
The broker refused to offer him anything due to lack of demand/interest.

So much for the "Greatest Comeback In The History Of The Damned Dome" momentum.
Hey, Jesus had his skeptics, too. Fortunately, that was all cleared up.

Don't know yet. Not a football fan.
It’s been since last October that I haven’t spent a Sunday with the Sox.
I’m scared.

Expect great things from DWizzle today.
