Dale Torborg is the son of ex-manager Jeff Torborg. He was also a wrestler known as the Demon in the now defunct WCW. He was supposed to be a KISS wrestler or something. He is currently the Sox strength and conditioning coach.

He was also involved in that whole Pierzynski/TNA wrestling thing. The dude is huge (6'7"). Here he is in a Sox jersey body-slamming some dude...

I was wondering who that was. After staring at it for a while I was wondering if somehow Hermy changed his hairdo.

As the wrestling historian here, I'll explain.

 

WCW towards the end was trying anything and everything to pop a rating. One such idea was to get KISS to perform live on an episode of Nitro.

 

Which they did for a boatload of cash. A part of the deal to do so, was to have a wrestler in their likeness.

 

Dale was called "the KISS DEMON~!~!" He of course had KISS intro music and he even came out of a coffin or tomb or something insane like that.

 

Real failure.

I wanna say Torborg is the conditioning coach.

How strange is it that Joe Cowley writes an article about Dale Torborg right as we are discussing him?

 

Sox trainer also knows championship rings

The caption:

 

"World Series Champion Chicago White Sox general manager Kenny Williams, left, vents his anger for Frank Thomas to manager Ozzie Guillen during spring training at the Sox training facility in Tucson, Ariz., Sunday, Feb. 26, 2006. Seething Williams fired back at former slugger Thomas, calling him "an idiot" and saying "he's selfish" after his latest comments criticizing his ex-team. (AP Photo/Charles Rex Arbogast)"

 

That'll be an interesting story tomorrow.

I'm not sure the rest of the player photos from the Sox Photo Day (2/26/2006) will be posted at Yahoo.com so I found them at GettyImages.com. Unfortunately, they all have a watermark on them. But I still thought you guys would like to see them.

Well maybe those action shots of Bobby were just taken at the worst possible time. He really doesn't look much different than he did last October in that studio shot.
