SoxFan1 Posted March 28, 2003 Share Posted March 28, 2003 1st of all, this is my 1st post ever here on SoxTalk/SoxNet. I have been posting at FanHome for 3 years but finally decided to bring my 2 cents over here where it's all Sox Talk all the time. Anyways, I say yes. I'm not sold on who just yet but i say it would have to be a pitcher who could contribute and be the 3 or 4 starter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteSoxPride3035 Posted March 28, 2003 Share Posted March 28, 2003 We have 7 starters this year. We have Buerhle, Colon, Garland, Wright, Loaiza, Rauch, and Stewart. We will have one in AAA at the start of the season (most likely Rauch), and then once Wright gets healthy again, we will have 2 in Charolette. No need in my mind.

mac9001 Posted March 28, 2003 Share Posted March 28, 2003 I say no, there's no FA pitchers out there that could help us and i'd like to give the current guys a chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YASNY Posted March 28, 2003 Share Posted March 28, 2003 I don't think we need another FA starter. We have plenty of depth, I believe. Of course, all of them in the minors are question marks. Even Josh Stewart, he's only 20 years old. Does he have the maturity to handle it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDF Posted March 28, 2003 Share Posted March 28, 2003 first of all, welcome to the board next i don't think there is anyone out there that is intriguing. but this guy that pit release some interesting. however, i think we are ok with the starting pitchers we have.

SoxFan1 Posted March 28, 2003 Author Share Posted March 28, 2003 Thaks 4 the Welcome. Anyway, Matt Herges is the only intriguing free agent. He could very well come in and be the 4th starter. Chick Finley is out there also. I doubt hed want to come here considering the accident at the park last year. That was pretty funny though! I forget, what was the name of the group?

First off, welcome aboard Soxfan. Secondly, I love the idea of adding another pitcher. I guess I'm one of the only ones. I like Herges, but he's only a reliever in my mind, especially after all his arm troubles. Herges would be a great pick up, if the Sox weren't so deep in this area. To me Reynolds or Finley would be perfect fits, especially if one of our 4th or 5th guys struggles. Loazia doesn't have impressive career numbers and you don't know what Stewart will do. Finley will be around longer then Reynolds (as in available longer; thats my guess). Reynolds would be a sweet pickup. Sign him cheap, give him incentives and see what he can do. If Wright is down a long time, then we could be in some deep trouble with only 3 effective starters cause we truly don't know how Stewart, Loiaza or Rauch will pan out.
