Daisuke Matsuzaka’s line in his start this week: Nick Swisher’s line in one inning of relief: From my perspective, this basically sums up the week.

At the end of the season, the White Sox dragged their feet (and their fans through burning coals) before clinching the AL Central title in what turned out to be a surprisingly mediocre division. Sure, they bounced back from an atrocious 2007 season, but more often than not, their age, lack of speed, reliance on [...]

Am I reading this right? The New York Yankees have acquired center fielder-first baseman Nick Swisher in a trade with the Chicago White Sox, baseball sources tell ESPN.com. Minor league pitcher Jeff Marquez is headed to Chicago in the deal, the source said. It’s uncertain if any other players are involved. If I were to [...]

The initial reaction in my noggin’ upon hearing that Ken Griffey Jr. was headed to the White Sox was one of some surprise. Although he is certainly no longer the player he was just a few years ago, Griffey can still swing a bat decently enough and potentially help a team looking for an offensive [...]

The facial hair situation for the White Sox has gotten even worse since last month. At least this time it’s UFH for a good cause! Nick Swisher gets a dye job on his UFH from Jeremy Campus, who has cancer, to raise awareness about breast cancer for Mother’s Day, which is this coming Sunday. (Let’s [...]

Note to copy editors: Please think of a different headline for Matt Cain stories

Dear ESPN copy editors, Monday was at least the second time you’ve run a “Cain Is Able” headline on the front page. You’ve run variations on this headline in the past. Other sites have used the headline, too. Here’s an info box where you used “Cain Is Able” as the header: It’s time to think of [...]

Crowdsourcing the Greats: The Greatest Center Fielders of All Time

We turn now to center fielders as we continue our ongoing series wherein we seek out the best players of all time at each position using the preposterous method of randomly googling the first top-10 lists we can find at that position and adding up the rankings.
