Thome is a classy guy. He always was.

So true. The best of the best. I hope the Sox can help him win a World Series ring before he retires.

Yesterday against the Indians, Jim had his 1300th career walk. Thome averages 118 walks per a 162-game season. That's pretty incredible.

P.S. Is it possible for someone to move this thread to the Sox forum?

No, it's not.

That's not a shame. It's probably awesome from the Phillies point of view.
