Saladino remember had disc issues in his lower back at the end of last season and through this off season. Those really never go away even with surgery (and I don't know if he had surgery or not). That's a bad situation to have for a professional athlete.

Feel sorry for him. His salad days are over as a big leaguer. No longer a prospect after this season's flop at the plate.

Uh, he's gonna be around this team for a bit yet as a utility guy

Crede, Hermanson and Jenks say hello...Jim Thome as well, on the back issues. Started to bother Konerko late in his career as well.

Ron Hansen (60s), Bill Melton, Bart Johnson and Eric Soderholm were some folks from a bit longer ago who also had careers basically end due to bad backs.

He's no longer a prospect because he's 27 and has played in 191 games over three seasons.
