Sun Jan 9 2011 | 15:11 | White Sox ink Josh Kinney to minors contract |
White Sox signed RHP Josh Kinney to a minor league contract. |
Kinney was a reliable middle reliever for the Cardinals when they won the World Series back in 2006, but Tommy John surgery set him back and he hasn't pitched in the majors since 2009. That could change in Chicago. He had a 1.80 ERA over 60 innings at Triple-A Memphis last year and might be able to climb into the White Sox's Opening Day bullpen with a good spring training. |
