The White Sox will have an interesting decision
to make this offseason concerning Joe Crede as rookie
third baseman Josh Fields (above) continues to impress. Whether a deal happens in the offseason or during the 2008 season, however, Crede will not make it through his walk year in a Sox uniform

Scott Podsednik's future with the White Sox is
cloudy at best. ''I don't know what direction we're
going to go,'' Guillen replied, when asked if Podsednik could be counted on for 2008. ''I always like speed, but in the meanwhile, when you're on the DL two or three times a year the last two years, then, well, we have to look at ourselves and say, 'Can this kid really help us in the future?' I ...

Draft While that guaranteed contract is nice, the real
money for draftees is the coveted sneaker contract. Back in March, there was talk that Kobe was trying to get Durant to sign with Nike . Now, according to Sports Business Radio , Greg Oden has gone the way of the swoosh. The terms and amounts of the deal were not disclosed, but as SBR points ...

Imagine this scenario - You have just been
drafted by the Houston Astros in the 16th round
to play the sport that is probably your first love. The 16th round (there are 50 total rounds for perspective sake) doesn't guarantee huge money but it's early enough to listen to the offers. The problem is you have also signed a national letter of intent to play football at Ohio State. What do you ...

The complete lack of football newsworthy items is
fantastic. That means no one is imitating Pacman Jones
nor do we have any freak accidents. Instead we have our head coach apologizing , in so many words, to the Big Ten for the national title game and eager to get going in August. And, just what about this coming year? Depending on who you talk to, expectations are all over the map but there ...

After winning his 300th game as White Sox
manager Saturday night, Ozzie Guillen expressed bigger ambitions. "I
want thousands, to be honest with you," Guillen said Sunday morning after becoming the 11th Sox manager to reach the 300 milestone. "I hope I'm in the game long enough to compete with Tony [La Russa], Bobby [Cox] and Joe Torre, those type of guys. Today, you have to be lucky; you ...

I've found that thinking about the upcoming football
season helps get my mind off that unmentionable game
in January. Sure, the new season is still months away but there are enough questions to fill that time-gap and then some. Unlike last year, the 2007 campaign will yield a wide ranging difference of opinion amongst faithful and the so-called experts. The defense returns almost intact, ...

DeShaun Thomas was locked for Ohio State for
about 8 days. Earlier today, MaxPreps.com reported that Thomas
has backed away from his commitment to the Buckeyes. Thomas, for the unfamiliar, is the 6'8" basketball wunderkind from Indiana whose style of play compares favorably with LeBron and Kevin Durant. So far, all Thomas has done is average 29 points and 13 boards...as a freshman. It should ...
