Chisoxfn Posted April 12, 2004 Share Posted April 12, 2004 I got to say, since were talking a bit about the draft...that Jared Weaver is as good as Prior was his senior year in college. This kid is going to be really special if he stays healthy. NASTY STUFF, amazing control. Its a darn shame the Sox couldn't take two or three of their early picks and move up with the Pads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soxman352000 Posted April 12, 2004 Share Posted April 12, 2004 Oh man, if this happens then I'll have a lot of Cubs fans to say I told you so. Cubs baseball: comedy at its finest. I agree it is like a comedy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

witesoxfan Posted April 12, 2004 Share Posted April 12, 2004 Damn Damn Damn Actually, It sucks that they will have an excuse. But Pettit is out for Houston, so it kind of equals out. We'll see how Tony does with the Cardinals. I can guarantee you that St. Louis and Houston are celebrating right now. Without Prior, the Cubs are toast. Their rotation is deep, but it is not deep enough to fill in for Mark Prior, who, IMO is the best pitcher in the majors, no doubt about it. They lose Wood, Zambrano, Maddux, or Clement, they are fine and dandy, but they lose Prior and they have no shot. Without Prior, they are a .500 team(if they're lucky). Pettitte is a mediocre pitcher for the money he's making, so with Clemens, Miller, Oswalt, and Redding, they are fine. Pettitte was not THE piece, THE ace of the Astros. Without Pettitte, Houston can survive. Without Prior, the Cubs may as well pack it in. If he is not back by July, the Cubs could be sellers at the deadline, because they could be 10 games back.

Nokona Posted April 12, 2004 Share Posted April 12, 2004 High Pitch Counts? Stupid manager? No guys. When they hung him on the cross they had to have pulled something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
