Ideally, Rauch would begin the year in Triple-A, but Sox coaches have been impressed with him this spring and he has made the rotation.

 Amazon.com: Gay Marriage: Why It Is Good for Gays, Good for Straights, and Good for America: Books: Jonathan Rauch   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Rauch, a correspondent for The Atlantic Monthly, columnist for National Journal, and a writer-in-residence at the Brookings Institution, tends to de-emphasize the all-too-common "equal rights" argument and suggests, instead, that gay marriage would be good for American society because it would increase respect for the institution of marriage itself.
Rauch addresses this concern and is upfront and honest about it and he should be commended for his forthrightness.
Rauch is a leading author and contributor to numerous magazines, including the prestigious "National Journal." He is often identified as a "libertarian" and less often as a "conservative." I consider Rauch to be one of the leading writers, gay or straight, in America today.

 The Bull Pen - Jon Rauch -- Super MR?
I think the nice part of the story is that Rauch, after being rushed by the White Sox bigtime, has finally found a niche for himself -- not to mention the fact that he's in a great flyball pitcher park.
Small sample applies, of course, but this is just the type of switch that a pitcher with Rauch's statistical background and stuff could latch onto and use to transform his career into a very useful player.
Rauch seems the most likely option, though general manager Jim Bowden could elect to promote another pitcher from the farm system.

 Rauch Could Be a Big Presence (washingtonpost.com)
Rauch views himself now as having come full circle, from the days when he was the top pitching prospect in the White Sox organization, only to suffer a shoulder injury in 2001 from which he has yet to fully recover.
Rauch's tenure in the White Sox organization was tainted by a rancorous ending, stemming from an incident last May during which he walked out of the team's clubhouse after being yanked, without permission and without alerting anyone.
At the time, Rauch called it a "miscommunication," explaining he thought he had permission to leave because he was being sent back to Class AAA Charlotte after the start.
