Jayson Stark on Cintron

Featured Replies

Good read here folks.

 

Absolut Cintron

 

But one heroic swoosh of the bat later, he was the most popular guy on the South Side of Chicago.

 

And as he rounded the bases, as shrieks and tears and fireworks erupted all around him, Alex Cintron told himself one thing:

 

He was now, officially, a member of the White Sox.

 

"That's exactly what I was thinking: I'm finally part of the White Sox team," said Cintron, who did hit three pinch homers (and two game-enders) in Arizona last year. "When you come through with a big hit like that, that's what you think. I did this last year with the Diamondbacks, but this was different. To come out and hit a home run in a big moment like that, against a team like the Tigers, was a great feeling."

This is his chance to be a fixture in our lineup right here.

 

He may play again tomorrow, and if he hits well again, the calls are going to start coming in for him to start over Uribe more often.

 

Needs to make sure he doesn't give up any errors with his defense though.

That's exactly what I thought when he hit that too. Welcome to Chicago, Alex. :D

On another note, reports out of Bani say that Juan Uribe's newborn baby has a spastic swing and he can't lay off ball four.

Did Uribe name his baby Alex? It works for a girl or a boy.

Oh! So that explains why you always disagree with me in the "buster. :D

I have been calling for more Cintron in my last few Hot or Not articles. Nice to see him producing.

I'm suprised Jayson Stark knew the Sox played yesterday with the Yankees and Red Sox playing.

Cool nickname! :cheers

It's funny to see so many people call Cintron worthless up until he hit that HR. Now he's amazing.

People are so damn fickle. Everyone was on ledges about the Sox for the past couple weeks and until the 8th inning. And now they don't even remember any of that.
