As a Sox fan, I don't understand all the bad things with having Pods back. I think the team is better off keeping Jenks and Pods rather than dumping both and signing Figgins. Even if Pods regresses(which I'm sure he will), would paying Figgins 10 mil plus for the next 4 years be a smart move when we can have Pods for less than 5 for the next 2?

Rowand for Thome: FAIL
Relying on Colon & Contreras: FAIL
Betemit for Swisher: FAIL
Thomes been pretty damn good, compared to the other candidates (Freddy Garcia, Daniel Cabrera) Colon has been very serviceable, and with Richard pitching well Contreras has not been needed. The Swisher trade was bad, but there was nowhere for him to play and it was a salary dump
White Sox to DFA Betemit, Promote Beckham
