I spoke to him. He has a great outlook on things. I really wish him well, but John was the man that we wanted,&#8221; Lamont said. &#8220;Chris wants to play third every day, but obviously that&#8217;s not possible with us.&#8221; \u00a0Unable to find a trade partner, the White Sox released Sabo on June 5th.<\/p>\n<p>Sabo&#8217;s numbers in a White Sox uniform were:<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<table border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"0\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th bgcolor=\"#c0c0c0\"><span style=\"color: #000000;
