White Sox organizational development failure personified.

 

 

Oh no.. there's been plenty of those. You've got to add asinine monetary payout to the description if you're going to be accurate in describing Joe.

Borchard had holes in two places:

 

1. his swing

2. his head

 

The Sox could've fixed #1 if he would've fixed #2. He thought the only way to get to the big league was to, as Earl Weaver once said, "hit the *bleeping* ball out the ballpark".

From what Boz has said, he's a nice guy, and incredibly smart too.

The hitting clinic he gave years ago at Soxfest was topnotch. It was one of the single best clinics I have ever seen. The kid is incredibly smart, and a student of the game. Too bad it never translated to the playing field.

Classy guy and from what I understand, that's why the Marlins have kept him around. They've dumped several other OFs and have hung on to Borchard despite his sub .200 batting average. Apparently they like that he's a good guy in the clubhouse and a hard worker.
