While I wouldn't go so far as to call Mark Buehrle's final spring outing brilliant, it should be good enough to quiet those who wonder if the Sox kid gloves with Buehrle are a result of some undisclosed injury. He got a couple of extra outs thanks to some poor base running by the Rockies, but generally appeared healthy and ready to take the mound in a less than 6 days, assuming the weather holds. After the game, Ozzie Guillen made it official, Buehrle is the White Sox opening day starter.
