Jerry Krause has left his position as international scouting director to join the D-Backs. Had the position for less than a year. Lolz.

International talent? Who needs it.

What's with the WHITE SOX RESIGN DEXTER CARTER thread? Have the mods disabled it because it's not true or something?
No, it's because the thread already exists in the minor league forum.

Buehrle's was not, 5 IP, 5 hits, 4 ER, 2 BB, 6 K, 2 HR
Also worth mentioning it was against the Reds AAA team.

Double for Flowers. He's been above and beyond expectations this spring.
I'd like to know if the changes to his swing are legitimate, or this is just a small sample size/spring training illusion. Either way I'd bet he's traded at some point.

i think it was over before it even started. i knew there was no way it would be tehean, we know ozzie is a defense type guy
It was indeed over before it started. It's funny that people thought Teahen was going to get his butcher job back at 3B because he hit decently during a small spring training sample size.
Morel is the absolute right choice.

You don't know who Brandon Belt is? One of the top prospects in the game.
This.
Pretty sweet for a 5th round pick.

Do we really want Dayan playing a bench role though? It wouldn't hurt having him get regular reps in the field down in Charlotte
Thankfully, from what I've read it sounds like Sox management agrees that he needs many reps and won't be a bench option.
Sounds like the Sox are actually being conservative with Mitchell, and plan to start him in Kanny. I approve.

And why is that?
Dude needs plenty of reps defensively and offensively. No need to waste away on the bench like he did last season upon his callup. He will be in AAA. Bet on it.

I knew about the speeding ticket, but the officer was a Cubs fan? Then Pierzynski should have said "You should let me go so I can take out some Reds players considering the Cubs are going to be playing them a hell of a lot more than us"

The officer who stopped AJ for speeding was not a Cubs fan, taking down a perfectly good story a notch

Holy s***, who is that SS? Dee Gordon?
Dodgers top prospect. Him and Sands. Most of his value is defensive. Still questions about his bat.

Ask and you shall receive. Lotta glare in my place to compensate for, but you get the picture.
This picture is a lie. I just read an article from the Detroit Daily News that Miggy is no "fat cat" and all that weight is pure muscle.

Pena gives up a smash to right center against some scrub. 2-1 Dodgers. Holy smokes I hate Tony Pena
I'm no Pena fan myself, but Trayvon Robinson is a pretty solid prospect.
