December 4, 201114 yr QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Dec 4, 2011 -> 04:42 PM) My next door neighbor is a solid guy but I wouldn't want him eating up a White Sox roster spot. I was trying to tippy-toe around talking about his actual play on the field (more to the point: at the plate) which I believe sucks. I don't really care about a guys character if he can’t play ball, but Danks was just a surprisingly cool guy. I wish him the best wherever he lands.

It definitely beats the alternative. Too bad it appears he will have to make his living doing something other than playing baseball.

Edit: His signing bonus was 500k. John was 2M Edited December 5, 201114 yr by hi8is

I'm sure it runs in the family.
