| June 17, 2008 With 16 runs on the board, it was easy to see how the Chicago White Sox were going to put an end to the night for the Pittsburgh Pirates, winning 16-5.

The shortstop later declined to talk about his comfortable level with the club or his future. |

| March 26, 2008 Orlando Cabrera made another fielding error during battle with Milwaukee, and he now has four errors this spring. The Sox brought him in primarily for his defense and they cannot be pleased with their investment so far, especially since he also holds an anemic .217 batting average. |

"It's kind of early, though," Cabrera said. "I mean, I really like what I see so far. I've always liked Ozzie [Guillen], and I like the way he manages. I love Chicago, and my wife loves Chicago. Everything looks good, but I always let my agent and Kenny work it out. I have a lot of things to do this year with my new team. So I don't want to jump ahead and think about stuff like that." GM Ken Williams has said several times since acquiring Cabrera in November that he'd like to lock the shortstop up to a new deal; Cabrera is in the last year of his current contract. |
