Worth the read. I can't wait to watch Holland and AJP.

The White Sox and their fans won't have to see it. Pierzynski leaves on a high note. His reputation is not only intact, but unexpectedly close to sterling as far as the South Side is concerned. He will be remembered for stealing first, getting punched in the face and the other moments only he could have ignited, and the less flattering aspects of his tenure will lose the little significance they had.

It was a brilliant read, indeed.

I've never much cared for Pierzynski, and I'm not sure I would have been fond of the Rangers if they had offered him anything more than a one-year deal. But he's here, now. He's one of our guys, one of us.
