Default Welcome back Kip!

News: The White Sox signed starting pitcher Kip Wells to a minor league deal on Friday, according to CBSSports.com Baseball Insider Jon Heyman. Wells last pitched in the majors in 2009, when he went 2-5 with a 5.33 ERA for the Nationals and Reds. He pitched for the Long Island Ducks of the independent Atlantic League in 2010 and did not play for a professional team last season.

The Knights must be really desperate for pitching

All he does is take a roster space.

Too bad he never learned how to pitch. This is an arm that has disappointed nearly every team he has played for, including this one.

They need to bring back Josh Fogg, too.

Apparently Wells had a workout for the Mets a few weeks back and was hitting 93 on the gun so... OK.

You might as well pick Rick White and go for the Fab Five. I hated seeing him and his 6.61 ERA coming out of the pen.

Wasn't Kip the starting pitcher who did such a stellar job in 2000 in that Monday night game against Cleveland after the Sox came off the road trip where they swept Cleveland and the Yankees? That was an electric night to remember.
