I thought Scott Podsednik was from West?

Dang man, you're right. My fault on this one. When I read the wire news it said White Sox centerfielder and I thought about Podsednik.

the White Sox don't think they will be able to keep Konerko so they went and got Thome

Jim Thome still a very good power hitter with 50 homerun potential i think its even trade for both but with whitesox looking for more homerun power

Thome could also DH if they keep Konerko, which would allow them to move Carl Everett.
