The Numbers Game

3 walks vs 16 strikeouts.

Great numbers if you're a pitcher. Horrendous numbers if you're the starting right fielder for the Chicago White Sox.

I was moderately excited when the Sox went out and grabbed Jermaine off the free agent market last December. I was under the assumption then that he could still hit and wasn't a lousy fielder. Thus far this season, he's been Joe Borchard-like at the plate and seems to be lost on high fly balls and shots hit to his right.

Is Timo Perez warming up in the wings?
