Player Notes

July 2, 2008
It was a hard-fought battle, but the White Sox emerged 6-5 over the Cleveland Indians this evening with eight hits spread through six hitters. Catcher A.J. Pierzynski was weapon of choice, going 2-for-5 with two homers on the night, good for two RBIs and two runs scored.

Our View:Pierzynski quietly hit .326 last month though his run production is lacking (just 11 RBIs through June). Getting off the hump and driving runs in should be priority #1 to improve his offerings moving forward.

June 22, 2008
A.J. Pierzynski was held hitless on Sunday night ending his 15-game hitting streak.

Our View:Amazingly, A.J. started the streak hitting .279 and ends it hitting just .299, only .013 points above his career mark.

June 20, 2008
A.J. Pierzynski hit his hit his fifth home run of the season on Friday afternoon to extend his hitting streak to 14-games.

Our View:A.J. is hitting .306, this a year after suffering through a prolonged drought that led to just a .263 average. Whether you love or hate the guy, his production has certainly been a nice bonus this year, especially with other catchers failing to live up to expectations.

June 19, 2008
A.J. Pierzynski went 2-for-5 in yet another White Sox offensive onslaught against Pittsburgh. The catcher now has a 13-game hitting streak.

Our View:The second slot in the White Sox batting order has provided Pierzynski owners with some additional runs. The starting catcher has 32 runs scored on the season.

June 11, 2008
A.J. Pierzynski extended his hitting streak to eight game with a 2-for-3 performance on Tuesday night against the Tigers. In fact the White Sox catcher is hot. His two hits last night gives him five multi-hit games during his current streak.

Our View:Pierzynski is hitting .424 (14-for-33) in the eight games and has raised his season average to .302.
