ThunderBolt Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Dec 4, 2011 -> 04:42 PM) My next door neighbor is a solid guy but I wouldn't want him eating up a White Sox roster spot. I was trying to tippy-toe around talking about his actual play on the field (more to the point: at the plate) which I believe sucks. I don't really care about a guys character if he can’t play ball, but Danks was just a surprisingly cool guy. I wish him the best wherever he lands.

It definitely beats the alternative. Too bad it appears he will have to make his living doing something other than playing baseball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: His signing bonus was 500k. John was 2M Edited December 5, 2011 by hi8is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure it runs in the family. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
