Thornton's master plan Sox reliever pitches goal: earning a spot in starting rotation By Mark Gonzales Tribune staff reporter August 23, 2006, 10:27 PM CDT DETROIT -- Matt Thornton has some unfinished business he wouldn't mind settling with the White Sox if asked. Thornton said Wednesday he would welcome a chance to join the rotation as a starter."I would love to start again," said Thornton, who resurrected his career this season with the Sox as a reliever. "They're having a heck of a time getting [brandon] McCarthy in the rotation right now. He had a great career as a starter in the minors. "That's something I don't worry about. If they came to me down the road to see if [i'd] want to start, I'd be more than willing. I'd love to." Thornton, 29, was a starter in the Seattle organization until he reached the majors in 2004. After he walked seven in his only major-league start against the White Sox, the Mariners optioned him to Triple-A Tacoma to "get it figured out," he said. "I threw about 28 innings [in the minors], struck out 35 and walked eight, but I never got a start in the majors again," Thornton said. "It blew my mind, especially with the way their starters struggled." Thornton said he threw harder as a starter than as a reliever until this year "because my first inning was my worst as a starter, which is one of the reasons I struggled as a reliever. I had to settle in. You have to get a feel for things and work as you go, and the first inning was my rough inning." Thornton said he noticed a significant difference in his velocity when he was sent back down as a starter. "I would throw about 93 m.p.h. in the first inning but 96 or 97 by the fourth," he said. Thornton's quick development enabled the Sox to option rookie Boone Logan to Triple A Charlotte in mid-May, with Thornton taking over the late-inning left-handed duties in place of struggling Neal Cotts. Thornton, who had a 2.65 ERA in his last 38 games entering Wednesday night, has enjoyed his role as a reliever with the Sox with the likelihood he'll easily surpass last year's mark of 55 appearances.

Best of luck to you

Hell even if by some miracle they win the WC whoever they face will just punish them and send em home...

Funny thing is with these Tiger fans, you couldn't get a person to admit they were a Tiger fan last season...

Heard on the Score, Wilson was picked up by St. Louis...

It sure would be nice if one of our pitchers could learn that its ok to have a lead and friggin keep it...

Excellent game by Vazquez....bout damn time!!

Doesn't Mulder have a messed up hip?? I think that is what's causing most of his problems...IMO

Not exactly considered Chicagoland I guess but its Silver Slipper in Ottawa.... Club O is alright too. You can always check this web site as well http://www.stripclubdirectory.com/directory.asp

Offman saying Sox made no moves... glad I woke up earlier and lost sleep for this...sheesh

I think if KW needs to do anything is he needs to get a backup who can actually play CF. Rob should not be playing in CF...EVER.

Lets see if they can score some runs here....

Pods picked off lucky for him they threw it terribly

You'd think they would want to listen to the singers b4 they let them go out and butcher it...yikes

If it Owens and Garcia... Deal send Zito now.

Run ourselves right out of that inning.

Uribe running like there were 2 outs there...

BMac just about gave me a friggin heart attack there...

Bmac just making this game interesting and giving Jenks a chance for a save... yeah yeah that's it.

Man and they are right back in this friggin game.

Maybe they can learn something by watching AJ there...

Well lets see if someone can finally friggin come through
