PAUL KONERKO RUMORS & GOSSIP

Konerko shoots his mouth off defending Quentin

White Sox first baseman Paul Konerko has curiously come to the defense of his ex-teammate, Carlos Quentin. By now you know that Padres outfielder Carlos Quentin was hit by a Zack Greinke pitch, and that he charged the mound, and ended up fracturing Greinke’s collarbone, resulting in the Dodger pitcher missing two months.

Paul Konerko is the ultimate ladies man, based on this perfectly timed photo

So this happened on Opening Day in Chicago, during the Royals-White Sox game. Normally a picture involving Paul Konerko, Chris Getz and Rusty Kuntz doesn’t incite much interest, but if the three of them are aligned appropriately, as they are in the above picture, it turns into a rip-roaring good time. As sophomoric as it may seem, it’s still OK to laugh…laughing at perfectly...

Former Dodger Konerko looks back at career

LOS ANGELES-- When Paul Konerko broke into the big leagues with the Dodgers in 1997, he was supposed to be the next Mike Piazza or Eric Karros. He wasn't even sure he was going to be the first Paul Konerko.

Paul Konerko: Hall of Fame worthy?

Everyone in Chicago knows the value and skill of White Sox team captain Paul Konerko. However, his recent numbers have been attracting the attention of baseball fans and authorities across the country.

Chicago White Sox: One month in

Suffice it to say that the Chicago White Sox surprised pretty much everyone this April. As I’ve said before, it doesn’t look like they will become the awful 95-loss team that analysts predicted. Going into May, their record of 12-11 has them vying for first place in the AL Central. It is true that the Sox were in contention last year before the Detroit Tigers got red-hot, but...
