While on the subject of Frank, somewhere on another thread there was a comment about some pathetic slide he made at home plate.  Can anyone fill me in?  Tks.

I'm not sure what game it was. He had a few weak slides last year. One game was against Minnesota, the other was against Tampa Bay. When you're that size and you decide at the last minute to slide, it's going to look just god awful. It was like he decided to slide, then stopped, then finished the slide. Like he just kinda flopped.

Mark Buehrle was asked by an ESPN reporter how many people in the dugout were laughing at Frank Thomas' "pathetic" slide at home plate last year. MB answered, "25."

Frank came into Spring Training and got all the crap off his chest. He has since been quite a team oriented guy. Working hard on defense, etc. His apprach is exactly what he did early in his career.... be selective and try and drive a pitch to right center or up the middle. He really seems to have the right attitude...... for now. We'll see.
