White Sox fans rejoiced Monday afternoon as worthless right-handed relief pitcher Mike MacDougal was designated for assignment.
MacDougal, who seems to have a chronic allergy to the strike zone, has walked seven in just 4 1/3 innings this season. He also has a spiffy 12.46 ERA.
The Sox promoted Jack Egbert from triple-A Charlotte to take MacDougal's roster spot. Really, though, it doesn't matter who the Sox called up. Just about anybody would be better than MacDougal.
Hell, this kid would probably be better than MacDougal:
Looks like he at least throws strikes. He even kinda looks like MacDougal.
That's awesome.
