Sox find their man?

The White Sox have finally found a possible leadoff hitter and centerfielder for the 2010 team....Juan Pierre. The Sox traded a couple of minor leaguers-to-be-named-later to the Dodgers for Pierre who was essentially their fourth outfielder who saw a lot of time last season when Manny Ramirez sat out for testing positive for a banned substance. Piere brings the Sox some valuable experience and a World Series ring he won with the Marlins in 2003. He will likely become the everday centerfielder for the Sox, a position he only played fifteen games last season. The 32-year-old Pierre did hit .308 for the Dodgers and stole 30 last season. Sadly this means the Sox have probably seen the last of 2005 hero Scott Podsednik, but then again we've said that before, so who knows.
