supernuke Posted January 25, 2003 Share Posted January 25, 2003 Rick White got absolutely tatooed last year with the Colorado Rockies. He was throwing line drives all over the place, so they cut him, and the Rockies were absolutely desperate for bullpen help. He would have made Ritchie look good. We have all these promising pitchers in the minors, so we should give them a chance to win the job. The staff ERA just went up. Most pitchers get Tattooed in Colorado, White pitched quite well once he went to St. Louis and he has respectable career numbers. Besides that you can never have too much bullpen depth.

The staff ERA just went up. if you look at white's numbers from colorado you can kinda piece together what happened...his hits versus IP wernt that bad but his walk total was way up...probably means after the first infield pop up went about 450 feet he said holy s*** , what did i get myself into and started nibbling alot more..falling behind in the count then coming in and getting tatooed...that place is afriggen disaster to pitch in...darryl kile had an era around 6 there too..his career was fine after he left (rip)...hampton's probably will be too..and so will white's...

witesoxfan Posted January 25, 2003 Share Posted January 25, 2003 Goddamn....our bullpen's gonna be good....our starting rotation's gonna be good....our lineup's gonna be good....our bench may even be good. Goddamn....this season could be fun as hell....I can't wait. Goddamn, you know what sucks though? The beginning of ST is still about 3 1/2 weeks away still, or something like that....this is the most boring part of the year(especially if you don't live anywhere close to Chicago and can't go to SoxFest)....because there is nothing to do. There are no good players left(with the exception of a few decent ones that could make an impact on some bad or mediocre teams), football season is almost over(after next Sunday)....damn, this part of the year sucks. Goddamn....reality just dawned on me....this is going to be boring as hell for about the next 3 1/2 weeks....and then we'll get the thrill of ST and ST games for about the next 3 weeks....and then the last 2 weeks blow ass and are boring as hell.

Goddamn goddamn..i think the exact same thing...this is always the most boring part of the year...while i dont watch college BB in the regular season i do enjoy march madness...ill usually try and get in a pool with a couple of underdog teams..one of those where if you take a 15th or 16th seed and they get to the great 8...you get x amount of dollars..more if they advance further..12 through 16 seed has to make the final four....that type of thing...thats makes it alot of fun sorry for the tangent but yourt right..its god damn boring until march 31st!!

YASNY Posted January 25, 2003 Share Posted January 25, 2003 It sounds like white will be a set up man. If that is true, where does marte go. A spot closer or do we trade him. White = 6th inning man Marte = 7th/8th inning man Gordon = 8th/7th inning man Koch = 9th inning man Glover and Wunsch are used when the time is right....Glover when White or Gordon had worked on about 2 nights in a row, Wunsch when either Marte has worked the same as Gordon/White or when there is a lefty that we need to get out. I think we're going to have an incredible bullpen this year - one of the best in the league, if not the best in the league. I can't wait for the season to start. I was thinking KW said White would take on Rocky Biddle's role in the pen. u mean long reliever? That's exactly what I mean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
