Godzilla!!!

The White Sox have also shown interest in DH/Outfielder, lefthanded power bat and 2009 World Series MVP Hideki Matsui. Godzilla could fill a couple of different voids the White Sox will have in 2010. The first being the void of power lefty that Jim Thome used to fill. Although he isn't quite as powerful as Thome, Matsui did hit .274 with 28 homers and 90 RBIs last season. Matsui would also fill the void of World Series MVP that the Sox lost when the let Jermaine Dye go this offseason. Dye won his World Series MVP with the Sox back in 2005, but on paper Matsui would be a slight upgrade from Dye's .250 average, 27 homers and 81 RBIs. Ironically both players are the same age and would command similar salaries, both of which might be out of the White Sox price range.
