White Sox morning roundup

Share

From yesterday:

Adam Dunn now had four home runs and a 1.390 OPS this spring after belting a pair of homers off Bruce Chen in a 16-4 White Sox win. Perhaps more importantly, though, Dunn has struck out exactly one time in 24 at-bats. More to come on Dunn later, but needless to say, this has been an encouraging March for him.

The White Sox will honor the 40th anniversary of Dick Allen's 1972 MVP campaign -- which some say saved baseball on the South Side -- with a pregame ceremony featuring Allen and other players from the '72 Sox. The ceremony will be held before the Sox June 24 game against Milwaukee.

I examined Chris Sale's changeup, looking specifically as to how it could help mitigate concerns about a gulf between his numbers against lefties and righties.
Around the division: Ubaldo Jimenez had a successful start while Shelley Duncan hit his fifth homer of the spring for Cleveland, Joakim Soria is still weighing his options and Scott Baker hopes to ready for the regular season.
