qwerty Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Mar 16, 2005 -> 02:53 PM) Diaz however has a very very very very straight slow fastball. He doesnt really project as someone that can become electric out of the pen. His numbers out of the pen last year say otherwise. Even though it was a pretty small sample size.

Even though it was a pretty small sample size. Mike Jackson and Billy Koch looked pretty good in about the same sample size. His confidence is the problem. In Diaz's case its a new analogy(a 75$ arm and a 10cent head) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwerty Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 (edited) Widger is my hero. He hits a single that knocks in one run and makes in first and third one out. Edited March 16, 2005 by qwerty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jabroni Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 (edited) His numbers out of the pen last year say otherwise. Even though it was a pretty small sample size. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Diaz pitched 16.2 innings as a reliever last season. He could have just managed to get by without getting rocked for that amount of time, even with his crappy no speed/no movement fastball. Getting by for 16.2 innings didn't suddenly make Diaz's fastball any better. Edited March 16, 2005 by Jabroni Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But i do believe if he is gonna succeed it's not gonna be as a starter it will be as a reliever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jabroni Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 (edited) 3-0 Sox Umm... Diaz has a no hitter going... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Against the worst lineup in baseball. Sergio Mitre of the Flubs even made the Royals look silly yesterday. I did say it was a small sample size. But i do believe if he is gonna succeed it's not gonna be as a starter it will be as a reliever. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Agreed. The less innings for Diaz, the better.

JUGGERNAUT Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 You're all a strange group of fans. You seem to delight in trashing ChiSox players. I maybe the only fan left who still has hope in Borchy but you guys have all but flushed the toilet on him. Go Joe! 3-2 Sox after 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwerty Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 (edited) Rowand gets hit by pitch then konerko hits a ball in the hole to short but they barely get rowand at second ( he was safe, honestly). Then another single to make it first and second one out for timo. Yaya. Timo flies out to center. No tag since it was konerko at second. Two outs for my hero widger.

I see people give up on players all the time. A lot of people wanted clee gone in 2002 (because of his dfense) , a lot of people lost hope in Paulie in 2003, people wanted arow gone in 2003. I say joe is definately showing signs of improvement. Id like to hold on to him still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we trade borchard now we might not get much for him. If he continues to improve we can get more later or keep him. It does not hurt us to hang on to him. We already gave him that big bonus.

Maybe if he lost the "deer-in-the-headlights" look and opened his eyes when he's at bat, he could make more contact. "Zzzzzzzzzzzzz..."
