Chicago White Sox pitcher Bartolo Colon is scheduled to make a minor league rehab start for Triple-A Charlotte on Thursday.

Problem is, the White Sox don't know where he is.
"I know where he is supposed to be right now. He's supposed to be in Charlotte, preparing to start Thursday," White Sox GM Ken Williams said Tuesday, according to the Chicago Tribune. "Efforts to contact his agent have been successful. Their efforts to contact their client have not been so successful."
Colon, the 2005 AL Cy Young Award winner, had been working on rehabbing his left knee in Arizona after starting the season 3-6 with a 4.23 ERA in 11 games. He joined the White Sox as a free agent this season.
"He's ready to go in terms of competing," Williams said, according to the Tribune "If he gets to the point where he's ready to mix in more of his breaking balls, he has a place here. If he doesn't, he doesn't have a place here.
"If he's in Charlotte on Thursday and he starts, then we have him on the program we want him to be on and he'll be a candidate for [our] doubleheader July 24," Williams added, according to the report.
The White Sox put Colon on the 15-day disabled list on June 9 with inflammation in his left knee.

Maybe he's in Argentina?

Or hiking the Appalachians

SI

Did they tell him exactly which Charlotte to go to? Charlotte the city in the state of North Carolina, Charlotte the harlot, Charlotte's Fine Clothiers, Charlotte's Web, etc...You have to be specific with these guys.

Charlotte the harlot? Not familiar but it rhymes and sounds funny

SI

Maybe he's bangin' a girl name Charlotte.

They check the Michael Jackson funeral?

Hope he wasn't hanging out with Steve McNair... (too soon?)

If we could smite on this board, I'd dock SI 5 points on general principle.

Get in line ;)

He pulled the same shit last year with the Red Sox in about August and they just didn't bother trying to find him.

Has anybody tried looking in restaurants near Charlotte?

were missing an over the hill pitcher... meh fine by me.

This is no surprise. While he was with the Angels, no one could find Colon at all except for a few months in 2005.

they found him.. lol and this article is hilarious, Ozzie is awesome haha..

Oh, man. Guillen is amazing with some of those quotes! :D

"I worry about Colon because Colon was a big-time Michael Jackson fan. He might see the TV and cry all day long. He maybe is in L.A. at his funeral, because I can't find him."

SI

Outside Shaq, Ozzie is the best sports quote around.
