Queer Eye for the Southside Team
The off season makeover of the White Sox continues. The White Sox yesterday signed long time Twins nemesis AJ Pierzynski to become their starting Catcher. AJ will provide the Sox with at least two years of a legitimate starting catcher for the first time since maybe the officer Karkovice era. AJ will bring plenty of attitude and moxie to a team that has lacked any really balls for a long time now. And as an extra added bonus, the price was right at $2.25 million for 2005, and the Sox own his arbitration rights for '06.
One more legitimate move might still be in Kenny Williams back pocket, as the Sox have been rumored to be as close as a $580,000 over two years difference of opinion to signing long time Japanese 2B Tadahito Iguchi. With the White Sox disenchantment with Willie Harris completely transparent, the Sox have tried all winter to find another 2B would could fill the #2 roll in the line up, and according to Kenny's scouts, Iguchi fits the bill like a glove.
All in all, the Sox successful off season continues...
