According to this morning's Tribune:

 

After the game, Guillen defended his decision to stick with the 25-year-old Anderson against Jones, but the Sox cleared room on the 40-man roster for an acquisition by outrighting first baseman Casey Rogowski to Triple-A Charlotte.

 

"I don't know yet," Guillen said in response to the possibility of sending Anderson to Charlotte to play regularly. "We have 12 pitchers. If we send him down, we have to get another guy to play center field to help us in the outfield. I don't know yet if that decision will be made. We haven't talked about it yet.

Interesting, very interesting, Let the speculation begin.

Terrero is coming up. I can forsee it.

Was Luis on the 40-man?

So, question...does this mean that Rogowski was able to clear waivers and no one else had any interest in picking him up?

I doubt we'd care if somebody even picked him up. He has no future beyond where he is now in our organization. Anyways, here comes Terrero.

Terrero is coming up. I can forsee it.

Or... with Pods out until at least June, Ozzie's obsession with speed and stats so far in AAA... don't count out the possibility of Owens coming up. He's already on the 40-man, though, so there could be something else at play here.

If you guys think Anderson has no clue at the plate, wait until you see Terrero against major league pitchers. BA does need to play though, and even if Terrero is no better, in the long run it is better for BA.

I actually was impressed with Gonzalez patience at the plate last night. Not that he should be kept-but we gotta take walks when they are offered. Anderson wont do that. I think Owens will be the guy.

Yeah it does. There's just not much value in 1Bman with no power.

Which always seemed odd to me, about Rogo. He hits for solid average, so he can make good contact. And he is built like a friggin grizzly bear. I really expected he'd develop more power.

But he's got gap power

If by power you mean another big looping swing we seem to produce, yuck.

So this means he is Rogoneski?

Maybe he will rejuvenate his career by changing his name to Casey Rogowski2k7.

Fixed

Rogo is hitting .141 in Charlotte with 1 homer. He soon will be 26 years old. I'm thinking there is little chance anyone would really want to put him on their 40 man, and if they do, I really doubt the White Sox would or even should care.

Yeah Terrero sucks. That's why it bothers me when people say 'Get Terrero up, Anderson sucks." Terrero is probably worse.

At this point, it is pretty hard to be worse than Anderson.

 

I was actually hoping they were freeing up a spot for Eduardo Perez. Especially with Thome hurting and Hall on the DL. He would be able to fill that need for a RH bat that can hit LHP.

Didn't Perez sign somewhere?

No, no he did not.

No, no he did not.

hmmmm....

Perez would be ideal right now. Especially considering our record against LHP (1win)

The Sox are 3-3 in games started by LHP.
