What was the LOWEST pitch hit for a HR last season you ask?

 

Delmon Young's lucky 3-run HR off Sale.....

The ball was about 11 1/2 inches off the ground.

EDIT: Delmon also had the 2nd farthest inside pitch hit for a HR. The #1 on that list? Miggy.

Hard to call it luck when it was IIRC the 4th straight slider of the sequence.

Hey Joe, or any other insider, is there anything new worth noting in the insider article "White Sox need a 3B."

Nah, nothing of interest here.

 

Just says Hahn's first choice would be to bring back Youkils, Viciedo to 3B remains a worst case scenario solution, and could look at short-term vets like Rolen, Chavez, Polanco, DeRosa. Could also consider Scutaro, Kelly Johnson, Keppinger, or Freddy Sanchez and put them at 3B, or move Beckham to 3B.

It does have a 'Customize' button on the site, so maybe one of the customizations you could get is to replace the Twins logo with a Sox logo.

 

I'm pretty sure that's what they do, it's just ironic that they put a Twins logo on it and advertise it on the White Sox site.

Correct. It's clearly an error as every other customizable item on there already has the Sox logo on it.

Is it just me or is this offseason dragging in regard to Sox moves?

 

The whole free agent market is crawling. The largest deal signed so far was the Jake Peavy $29M deal. Can you imagine what it must be like for other teams? Sheesh.

 

Winter Meetings in a week can't come soon enough.

It has, but it takes just one move to get this place moving and to predict moves off of that. Sox moves are also sort of in a holding pattern until AJ and Youk's destinations are determined.
