    care to elaborate? I was thinking of plunking down for the sox pride club so i can get the presale.

    no cubs/sox tickets, no opening day. Yes they do give you a chance to purchase these tickets but not until exclusive pride club sales later in the year when there are only couple hundred avaliable.

    Also they never said what the gift would be and after repeated attempts to find out what it was and when we would get i never heard anything. Also other people didnt get answers as well.

    The Jim Thome Saga Ends

    White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen said he wants to make a decision on the possible future of Jim Thome with the club before he leaves Sunday for Miami.

    Guillen said he doesn't feel pressured with the decision to re-sign the popular slugger, but clearly, the call will be a tough one.

     

    "Sometimes, when you [decide] with your heart, you make the wrong decision," Guillen said. "Unfortunately in baseball, you have to [decide] with your brains, and I'm going to see what's best for the ballclub."

     

    Thome, who was traded from the Sox to the Dodgers on Aug. 31 and is now a free agent, has been rumored to be going to Minnesota. Guillen dismissed the Twins report and said he will not wait for spring training because it would not be fair to Thome.

     

    Guillen's plans to have a designated hitter by committee didn't seem to jibe with a place on the White Sox roster for Thome.

     

    "The only reason I'm holding [back on] my decision on Jimmy," Guillen said, "is because I don't know how many at-bats I'm going to give him, and it's not fair to Jim Thome or the ballclub. I don't want to walk in the clubhouse and try to avoid Jimmy because he's not playing. That's why we have to make it clear about the situation to both sides.

     

    "I wish I hated this guy. I wish I could say to Kenny [Williams, the White Sox general manager], 'I don't want to talk about him.' But this guy is so special to us, that's why we're talking about bringing him back."

     

    Williams said he will defer to Guillen on a decision.

     

    "I'm all for Jim to come back if it fits in Ozzie's plan," Williams said. "But, if it doesn't fit in Ozzie's plan and rotation, and Jim doesn't get enough at-bats to be Jim and be successful, then it's not a workable situation for the club, for Ozzie, or for Jim."

     

    Guillen said he prefers to have 13 pitchers on his staff, which could affect the Thome decision.

     

    Williams said he has told Thome that whenever he retires, regardless of where he plays in the interim, the White Sox want him to be a part of the organization.

    The local C-Store to me, Stripes, makes very good breakfast tacos, and decent fajitas at lunch. The burritos are cheap, but not too good. The hot dogs seem to be ignored.

    i know at the gas station where i live they put the hot dogs on at 9 am...a hot dog and some nacho cheese. :P

    I think Getz is more or less maxed out. Maybe he ends up as a career .275 hitter rather than the .261 he hit this year but he doesn't have the skillset of a .300 hitter and I'd be very surprised if he ever hits for power or plays gold glove caliber defense. Getz screams backup infielder to me, and not even a particularly good backup infielder at that.

    Really? What makes you think this?
