From The Bard's Room- Floyd Rocked, We Wait In Joyful Hope for Second Coming of Aaron Rowand

This is becoming a really discouraging spring for the White Sox. Yesterday's 7-4 loss to the Rockies drops the Sox to 2-8 on the spring.

I know it's exhibition season, but I don't think it's so much to ask to not have the most losses of any major league team at this point, but here we are.

Gavin Floyd, who was looking like he would be the mystery 5th member of the starting rotation after a strong first start, got shelled for 6 runs in 3 innings yesterday, so now it seems we're back to square one and have no idea who is capable of of not making an Arnie Munoz out themselves in that role.

Meanwhile, our outfield situation and the rapid disintegration of Brian Anderson's career has us once again reportedly trying to get Aaron Rowand back from the Phillies, with a rumored deal including Boone Logan being on the table according to the Sun-Times.

An AL Central injury note, KC's second baseman Mark Grudzielanek is having his knee scoped and may miss a couple of months. This probably means Esteban German will be the Royals Opening Day second baseman instead of third baseman, while Mark Teahen will move back to third base instead of being in left field.
