I think I like A.J. Pierzynski, guys
Enter your community projections for A.J. Pierzynski.
Will the focus shift elsewhere now that the former White Sox catcher faced his old teammates?
The catcher missed the 2012 All-Star Game after he wasn't selected by Ron Washington, but claims that he's over it and it's in the past.
White Sox chairman Jerry Reinsdorf released a statement on departing catcher A.J. Pierzynski.
Baseball's most-hated player used his powers of evil for good for most of his White Sox career, making an indelible stamp on the franchise in the process.
The first real rumors of the catcher's free agency might not be what he expected.
The R.A. Dickey trade between the Mets and Blue Jays sent four more catchers on the move.
It's becoming unlikely that free-agent catcher A.J.Pierzynski will return to the Chicago White Sox, despite the lack of interest he's encountered on the open market.
However, Chicago is reportedly content to start Tyler Flowers behind the plate.
Things have been quiet for the White Sox at baseball's winter meetings, but the front office has its eyes and ears open.
