The White Sox's hairy situation captured two more players in its net Tuesday—pitchers Freddy Garcia and Neal Cotts.
A message on a clubhouse wall read in capital letters: "Freddy and Neal, A.J. (Pierzynski) threw you under the bus—you two must also get a haircut. KW (general manager Ken Williams)."
Garcia wasn't too amused and stared in the direction of Pierzynski's locker.
"Maybe I'll cut it a little bit, maybe a little bit," Garcia said. "I don't know what they want, but it will be just a little bit. It's not that long."
Cotts thought he eventually would be asked to get his hair cut but said he wouldn't cut it for publicity purposes.
"I have my own person I'm going to," Cotts said.
"If it was told to be done and not said to the media, it wouldn't even be a story. But it was brought up. I'll get it cut.
"Whatever [Chairman Jerry Reinsdorf] wants. It's part of the rules. It's kind of vague what the rules are. If [Reinsdorf] wants it shorter, that's the way it's going to be."
Cotts said he last had his hair trimmed in January.
I don't like this.. We aren't the yankees...
