Sox Pick up Podsednik…

It’s been a week, and the Sox have a 4-3 record. Not great, but good enough to be in second place, a half game behind the Royals in the Central. Currently, they’re scoreless in Detroit.

But I thought I’d post the news that Scott Podsednik, who was released in spring training by the Rockies and signed by the Sox in light of the injury to Wise. But before you start falling on your swords, he’s been signed to a minor league contract and will start in centerfield for Triple -A Charlotte.

I’ll be honest, he’s not the 2005 alum I want back (it’s no secret I’m a huge Rowand fan) and I’m not sure I want to see him back in a starting role Chicago, but if he can contribute on a part time basis (maybe teach Wise how to bunt, once Wise comes back) that would be nice.
