Keppinger Headed To The South Side

Following the loss to third baseman Kevin Youkilis, via free agency, the White Sox went shopping for a new third basemen. That was Jeff Keppinger who signed a 3 year $12M deal. Keppinger can play all the infield positions except first base, and he is the second hardest player to strikeout over the last 3 years. Only outfielder Juan Pierre is tougher tgan strikeout than Keppinger. Though we will not see the type of power we saw from Youkilis, Keppinger hits at least .275 and can get on base. The addition of Keppinger will bring depth in the infield and will make it a battle for pitchers at the plate
