'Bromance' time ... Putz signs!! - Inside the White Sox

Digital Eyes Will Chart MLB's Unseen Skills

Jenks is not a happy man, and it has nothing to do with another offseason beginning with trade rumors. Instead, during a weekend chat with MLB.com, Jenks took umbrage with the White Sox once again calling out his conditioning at the end of the 2009 season.
