Does anyone receive more undeserved tongue-baths than Mark Buehrle? Graaa, he's a pitcher!! I was randomly watching a White Sox game on MLB Network last week, and at one point Steve Stone followed the familiar pattern: step one, completely undersell Buehrle's "stuff", step two, completely oversell his knowledge, guile, moxie, etc. I think he ended up saying that Buehrle had the worst stuff on the team, but was the best pitcher. Mind you, this was a team that included Jimmy Gobble. Basically, he's all brain and no physical ability (because control isn't physical of course, its a mental power) the baseball equivalent of Stephen Hawking.

I guess I'm in the minority here, but I think the Monarchs jerseys look hideous.
