I wouldn't just say political reasons...if Konerko's bat ever wakes up like it did in 05 after that horrendous start, then having him around for $12 mil a year is actually a pretty darn good deal in this market, and I think he's an excellent guy to keep around in terms of being able to deal with the kids as well. If nothing else, supposedly Anderson spent a bunch of the offseason working with PK on his swing.
It appears Brian was the one working with Kong's swing.
