Chicago White Sox pitching coach Don Cooper said he went behind former White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen's back to sign an extension is because Cooper was told Guillen was asked about giving his coaching staff extensions and said "let them sweat." "Cooper needs to look in the mirror," Guillen said. "He didn't back-stab me. I know who he is. He back-stabbed his fellow coaches, the guys he worked with for years. You got family? That's fine. Everyone does. We all knew Coop was (GM Kenny Williams' puppet.)"

Chicago White Sox RP Chris Sale will have what pitching coach Don Cooper calls an educational bullpen session Saturday, March 19, as Cooper tries to correct Sale's control issues. "He's still having location problems. Not throwing the fastball away from left-handers and getting it in to right-handers, and the breaking ball is not getting in enough," Cooper said. "He's leaving a few too many pitches out over the plate." Cooper said Sale has enough potential to remain in the closer's battle with RP Matt Thornton.
