November 4, 201510 yr If nothing else, signing him would mean that he would no longer torture our pitching staff. But seriously, I think he'd be a decent fit as a 4th or 5th outfielder.
November 4, 201510 yr Not a chance. But, this is thread worthy just in the hope that he leaves the AL and goes to the NL so he doesn't have to face the Sox anymore.
November 4, 201510 yr Is he better than Shuck, Thompson and/or Avi? Other than removing his ability to beat us up, don't see the appeal.
November 4, 201510 yr He'd be a good platoon mate with LaRoche but I think that's Thompson's job next season.

November 4, 201510 yr If another team in the division is smart they'll sign him just to torture the White Sox. According to STATS he's got the highest percentage of career RBI's against one team IN HISTORY! Mark

November 4, 201510 yr Author He did hit .301 with 8 homers last year, albeit a small sample size. I wouldn't mind him platooning with LaRoche. Edited November 4, 201510 yr by ChiSoxFanMike
November 5, 201510 yr QUOTE (klaus kinski @ Nov 4, 2015 -> 04:54 PM) If he didn't play us, imagine how awful his numbers would be. People say this somewhat jokingly, but he has 82 RBIs against us. The team he has the 2nd most RBIs against? The Royals- 25 RBIs.
November 5, 201510 yr QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Nov 4, 2015 -> 05:02 PM) He is a Sox killer whether is is on another team or the White Sox. Yeah, it seems like that's how it usually works out when teams try to solve their problems by signing them.

November 5, 201510 yr Signing him would ensure that he's still able to create more losses for the White Sox.
November 6, 201510 yr 35 years old, hasn't played a full season as a starter in his career......sure. Give him 1 yr/$3M, why not. Edited November 6, 201510 yr by Chilihead90
