Addison Reed Traded to Arizona Diamondbacks

Reed Goes to Diamondbacks

Ugh. Reed was one of the only reasons I actually enjoyed last season. Now, he's on his way to Arizona. Looks like I got his autograph just in time ;)... Addison Reed saved 29 games in 2012 and saved 40 in 2013. He finished 2013 with a 5-4 record and a 3.79 ERA.


He was traded for an up-and-coming 3rd baseman from AZ's AAA Team, Matt Davidson.


Seems like he has medicre numbers, to me. As in, he has decent numbers in A ball (2011) but leading up to AAA seems like his numbers are decreasing; which tells me he is not ready for the drastic change players see in the MLB. His OBP is looking pretty solid, though. Hopefully, of course, I am proven wrong in my dismay.

Konerko, Gone Next Year?

White Sox lose to KC 3-2

Although both Paul Konerko and Adam Dunn both homered in tonight's game, it wasn't enough for a win. There's speculation that this year may be Konerko's last with the White Sox.

Paul Konerko's three-year, $37.5-million contract extension comes to a close after the this season. Let me tell you, the past, geeze, almost 20 years has been great with Paul Konerko. He's be a great leader, ball player and all-around good role model for baseball fan here in Chicago and all around the world. If it is his last year, I'm glad we got to see him in the World Series with us here in Chicago!
