The White Sox re-signed Pablo Ozuna to a one year, $500k contract. Ozuna played every spot last year except for pitcher, catcher and centerfield. He’s a replacement level hitter, but I guess he gives Ozzie Guillen some flexibility late in the game because Ozuna is a solid third basemen and shortstop. And he played on THE TEAM (the 2005 White Sox) so any time we lose a player, it’ll be looked at as if we’re breaking up the team that finally did it.

Geoff Blum was signed by the Padres, the same team he played for last year before we dealed for him at the trade deadline. Not a great loss, as Blum hasn’t had an OPS above .700 since 2002. Blum had his moment of glory when he hit the go ahead homerun in the fourteenth inning of game three of the World Series.
