Chicago White Sox starter John Danks has had a mixed bag of results in his 6 full major league seasons. While showing flashes of brilliance and the talent to jump to the next level, he's never quite made the leap. Even with that, being a #2 major league starter has it's own perks and John Danks fiancee Ashley Monroe is proof of that.

The woman who will soon be called John Danks wife is a country music artist, and member of the female group Pistol Annies (whose members also include Angaleena Presley and the former Mrs. Blake Shelton Miranda Lambert). On March 5, 2013, Monroe released her second solo album, Like A Rose, which according to a review on RollingStone.com is "full of backroad debauchery and heartbreak."

Danks and Monroe were engaged in September, 2012. The announcement was made when Monroe went to Twitter to announce the good news,

"I said yes . . . I'm engaged to my John Danks! Best night of my life!"

The tweet was accompanied with the picture of the proposal laid out in rose petals on the bed, alongside her engagement ring. No word on the couple's planned wedding date.

Chris Sale is an unlikely, albeit qualified, name emerging as a candidate in the tight AL Cy Young Award race. At the start of the 2012 campaign, many wondered how his erratic delivery would hold up under the rigors and demands of a full season as a starter in Major League Baseball.

Sale has answered his critics questions as to whether he can handle this with a resounding response. YES! After being drafted #13 overall in the 2010 amateur draft, Sale spent most of his first pro season on the bus to various minor league seasons. In a surprise move, Sale was called up to the show in August and spent the rest of 2010 and all of 2011 with the White Sox working out of the bullpen before moving to the rotation in 2012.

Now some might see this as a pretty normal progression through the minors, which is a fair assessment. However, Sale admits to struggling with his 2010 season and leaving his wife and newborn son at home in Florida. Chris Sale's wife Brianne Aron Sale gave birth to the couple's first child, Rylan Sale while they were both students at Gulf Coast University, and at age 21. Brianne stayed in Estero, FL while Sale worked his way through the ranks. Before the 2011 season, Sale moved his wife and son to Chicago with him where the family looks to have a comfortable stable place to live for years to come.

Sale clearly loves being a father, as he told the Chicago Sun Times,

“It’s awesome. I love my mom and I love my wife, but there’s no words to explain having a child. It’s been a fun journey so far.’’

Brianne has done some modeling work, with a pretty extensive portfolio of print work. According to her Model Mayhem profile page, she is a 5'3", 111lb model who is looking for more paid work, aspires to be a massage therapist, and hates conceited liars. However, much to the chagrin of a bunch of our readers,... NO NUDE. Sorry guys... but seriously, congratulations to Chris! Well done, sir.
