cwsox Posted April 10, 2003 Share Posted April 10, 2003 next they will be giving a try out to Jaime Navarro if only Eddie Cicotte wasn't banned from baseball, they could give him a try too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you can see the GM of the Rays going Jaime Navarro? Hell NO!!! Even I have standards! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steff Posted April 10, 2003 Share Posted April 10, 2003 So I guess we'll be hearing an announcement from Harold soon..? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clujer420 Posted April 10, 2003 Share Posted April 10, 2003 Well, the Devil Rays suck, and they are going nowhere fast, so I think this is a worthwhile risk for Sweet Lou. What's the worse than can happen? Rocker will blow a game or 2 and then get cut? BFD, what's the difference between 90 losses and 92 or 93? I feel that Rocker is good enough to be in the majors, but not for a contending team -- at least not until he gets some help for his issues. His antics could potentially cost a good team a shot at the post season -- but a team like TB, the potential gain outweighs the potential loss, IMO.

Chisoxfn Posted April 10, 2003 Share Posted April 10, 2003 Rocker's potential definately outweighs Parque's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CubKilla Posted April 11, 2003 Share Posted April 11, 2003 Paul Byrd to have elbow surgery on Friday to remove bone chips and will be out 2-4 months. Guess the Phillies didn't see that one coming Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BridgeportHeather Posted April 11, 2003 Share Posted April 11, 2003 So I guess we'll be hearing an announcement from Harold soon..? Or how about Sweet Lou becoming a player/coach!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YASNY Posted April 11, 2003 Share Posted April 11, 2003 I can see TB making this move. If Rocker can be anything close to the pitcher he was with Atlanta, come the trade dealine, he might have some value. I read several teams approached KW about our LH relievers at the end of ST.
