Everyone has been screaming for rankings. I wanted to wait for a while, but I’m also tired of being harassed. Remember that it’s December 30th, and this list will surely change by the time the season starts. Also note that every team has at least one catcher on this list, some teams two....

The right guys got the right message. I’ll get into the he said-he said silliness of White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen and hitting coach Greg Walker later. But the bigger story is that the right hitters got themselves right. For one night, anyway. Jim Thome, Joe Crede and Paul Konerko all homered. O...

Whatever is supposed to go right for the White Sox is going exactly that way, even when players stink. Right, Paulie? Right, Jim? Right, Mark? Carlos Quentin continues his revival of the role of Joe Hardy. Alexei Ramirez barely scores on a sacrifice fly when he's probably the only guy on the roster ...

Let’s see if the most recalcitrant of traditionalists knows of whence St. Louis speaks when it reminds one and all that it, among many if not most baseball cities, knows well enough from blown calls and human elements. Consider this, from your ancient history. Specifically, Game Two of the 188...

If Jim Edmonds can play, great. If not, bye. Simple. That's all that Cubs fans should worry about with the former dreaded Cardinal (see former evil Piston Dennis Rodman for details). That's all that Cubs players should worry about, too. Look, you could find some White Sox players who weren't happy t...

The White Sox have it all wrong: They should get shut out when Mark Buehrle's on the mound, seeing as how he'll give up a pile the way it's going, and get seven runs for John Danks, who looks like he could protect a lead. More importantly, manager Ozzie Guillen changed his lineup for Tuesday night's...

I love Jim Thome. I don’t think Aaron Rowand is Superman. But I think that trade killed the White Sox and will continue to kill the Sox for who knows how long. It doesn’t make sense if you compare their careers. Thome is going to the Hall of Fame; Rowand is going to the hospital. But it makes pe...

It starts with Kenny Williams, who, the joke goes, is balanced as a general manager because he has a chip on each shoulder. It filters down to White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen, who is an uncapitalized reality show (and figures to remain that way as long as his employer owns a piece of Comcast SportsN...

Jake Westbrook was the hottest Indians’ pitcher this spring. The good news for Westbrook is that it carried over to his first start against the White Sox for this afternoon’s 12:00 game. The bad news is that the Tribe offense was shut down by a better performance from starter John Danks,...
