Position Battles: LG & RT
Honestly, there's only so much you can say about offensive line battles. As important as they are, hey're really not all that exciting. To keep from having two OL battles on consecutive days, we're combining them into one post. Left guard above the jump, RT after it. Oh, and sorry about no picture,...
Position Battle: FS/SS
Funnily enough, safety was an area of concern not too long ago. Now, there’s a plethora of talent there - if you could have too much talent at a position, this would probably be that amount of talent. All four of the players vying for the two jobs are great safeties, making this one of the...
Position Battle: DT
The Terps brought in a new defensive coordinator this year, Don Brown. Brown was most recently the head coach at Massachusetts, and he was mostly successful there. I don’t think he can be much worse than Chris Cosh and his weird LEO position. Brown faces his first major personnel decision...
Position Battle: TE
The Terps are well known for their good tight ends: Jeff Dugan, Vernon Davis, Joey Haynos, and Dan Grownkowski are a few of the best that have come through the program. They’re also well known for their use of two TE sets. In this offense, at least two TEs will see a decent amount of playing...
Position Battle: #2 Running Back
This one is more of a position battle in name than in reality. The winner will gain a few extra carries, but the loser will still see the ball a decent amount. All three backs are too good to allow one to see all the carries. But it's stil classified as a position battle and I don't want to move to...
Who Will Play Second Base for the White Sox? And, is The Cheat Dying?
Let's address the second - and far more important - question after the jump. First, though, Kenny says Gordon Beckham is in the mix for second base: “Oh, yes. He’s starting at that position or starting in the Minors,” said Williams during a talk just prior to Wednesday’s...
Viva La Revolucion! White Sox Cubano News with a Bullet
Dayan Viciedo is no longer a teenager as he turns 20 today. Jose Contreras is now officially a Cuban-American as he obtained his US Citizenship today. Due to Conteras' return to Miami for his citizenship ceremony, C&C's bullpen session has been pushed back to Thursday. Saturday or Sunday is...
Sunday SSS Spectacular White Sox News & Notes
Merkin says it will be Contreras and not Colon who will open the season in the rotation: I'm just guessing here right now, but I think Contreras will start the 2009 season as part of the rotation, but Colon, who is coming back from an elbow injury, will not but won't be far behind. By the way, I...
Attrition in the Battle for the Keystone Sack
Apparently Gordon Beckham getting more of a look at second isn't just because he's the bestest ever, as both Jayson Nix and Brent Lillibridge are ailing. Nix has a right quad injury, while Lilibridge has the flu. Or the flu-like. Both are expected to be out until Wednesday. Since our lord and...
Anthony Montgomery is the backup, but probably not for long
Starting tomorrow during the Redskins @ Giants game but continuing for most of the season I will carefully be watching for Anthony Montgomery in the lineup. I'll get to why in a moment. Briefly before that, make sure you check out the team's final roster heading into the season available at the...
