AngelasDaddy0427 Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 All I can see is flashbacks of Mark Prior in spring training... What if it turns out that he is done with the Sox and could never pitch again (I realize it's an extreme case scenario) would we still have to pay him 36 million or do we have some kind of an out clause.

The Critic Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 I'm not that worried about Freddy. I still "kind of trust" what they're telling us.....sort of.....maybe..... My guess about the contract is, I would think that Freddy gets paid by the insurance company that the Sox bought a policy on him from. I would think the Sox have some sort of injury insurance on all their contracts. Just a guess, though, I have no insider info...."I'm just a fan".....

SoxFanForever Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 He has tightness in his forearm, not a bad achilles and elbow like Prior did. They are not trying to rush him back and they are taking it easy with him to see how he responds to long toss and side sessions. I for one am not very worried. I think he will be alright.

Yoda Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 They should SHUT HIM DOWN. Why risk a pitcher who can possibly give you 20 wins year in and year out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hatchetman Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 it's concerning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witesoxfan Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 Not worried in the least. Give him the rest of the year off, and we are fine. If it were his elbow/shoulder/knee/achilles...then I'd be s***ting myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilliamTell Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 Yes just shut him down for the rest of the year. No harm in that, be safe here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 He has tightness in his forearm, not a bad achilles and elbow like Prior did.

Tightness in the forearm many times leads to problems with the elbow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Socks Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 Does anybody know how Jeremy Reed's forearm is holding up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxAce Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 Does anybody know how Jeremy Reed's forearm is holding up? I would say still sore, but I'm not his body. Judging by his numbers, I would say he's holding up alright.. BA (.299) SLG (.439) AB (221) R (38) H (66) 2B (9) 3B (5) HR (4) RBI (33) BB (22) SO (22) SB (13) CS (2) E (3) Horrible.. :rolly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
