According to reports, former White Sox outfielder Scott Podsednik will be rejoining the club's major league roster after being called up from Triple-A Charlotte on Friday. Apparently, he's already on his way to meet up with the Sox, but the team will not be announcing any roster moves on their off day.

We're only two games into the 2009 season, and already White Sox fans are getting restless for a change at the top of the batting order. Never really sold on manager Ozzie Guillen's selection of Dewayne Wise to bat lead off, the fans have quickly grown frustrated with the lack of production from the journeyman center fielder. Fans booed him at the Cell during Wednesday's game. But Ozzie's sticking with his man... for now.

When the White Sox opened camp last month, there were a number of positions that remained unfilled, with numerous players to compete for the starting jobs in center field, at second base and in the starting rotation.

Unlike their rivals across town, with their backs against the wall the White Sox found a way to extend their best-of-five series beyond the minimum three games by beating the Tampa Bay Rays 5-3 at U.S Cellular Field.

Javier Vasquez pitched exactly as we feared he would in Game One of the ALDS against the Tampa Bay Rays, allowing six runs in 4 1/3 innings. The erratic Sox starter dug the team into a hole from which they couldn't recover before losing 6-4 Wednesday afternoon.

The White Sox had their ace on the mound Wednesday night, but it made no difference as the Sox dropped another game to the Minnesota Twins 3-2. The South Siders now cling to the absolute slimmest of margins -- a 1/2 game lead for the AL Central title.
