Paulie approves Kenny’s moves:
“I think Teahen, he’s kind of coming into his prime,” Konerko said. “I think that’s obviously a good move; you’re hopefully catching him on the upswing. Pierre, he’s (32), but he’s had a couple of years now where he didn’t play every day so he’s probably fresh and ready to go.
