BHAMBARONS Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 Lots of rumors that after the Barons First Half ends on Sunday that Bobby Jenks will be on his way to the bigs and Casey Rogowski up to Charlotte which then will allow Villcais to maybe come of the DL or Wasserman to be promoted and Leo Diagle to be called up from Winston-Salem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwerty Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 Jenks would replace who...? He is not read for the big show yet anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, I'm kind of speechless. I've wanted to see what Bobby could do but do you think this is a little early BHAM or do you think he's ready?

Jabroni Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 (edited) I don't think that this will be happening anytime soon. Jenks is doing well but he still has a 3.00 ERA in AA with a poor walk rate. Edited June 13, 2005 by Jabroni Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But i agree it is way too early and i just don't see it happening at this point ( him being brought up). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I hear Kenny Williams really was impressed when he seen him. Nothing to left for him here I was hopeing it would be charlotte because I don't think he is ready.

His walk rate is cause for concern but his ERA is very misleading he gave 7 runs in the first game of the season and only 4 ER since.

They will unfortunately let him work out his kinks as our bullpen's jizz-mopper in blowouts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has his control been any better as of late or is he still having a ton of issues throwing strikes? The thing I'm really worried about if this happens is his mental stability I hope he's matured enough that if he has a bad outing or two in the majors that he won't lose it again.

Walk haven't been a problem as of late blowing away hitters with his upper 90's heat and 12-6 Curves. As for mentaly that is why I wrote what I did about hopeing Bobby isn't called up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just hope he doesn't get Mark Wohlers instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBAHO Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 It's good to see Rogo on his way to Charlotte. A good half season there, and he could be in the mix for 1B next season if Konerko doesn't re-sign. A Gload / Rogo platoon wouldn't be the worst situation if they both hit to their capabilities. Jenks doesn't have the best walk ratio, 17 BB's in 30IP, but it's not catastrophic. Look at the other stats, 35 K's and only 1 HR given up in 27 games, that's impressive. Now who would he replace? I can only see 2 options. Willie Harris (since they're never going to send down Timo), or Shingo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jabroni Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 (edited) Jenks' ERA is down to 2.87 after last night's game, just to correct my earlier 3.00 ERA stat. He had 2 K's in 1.1 innings and didn't allow a hit or issue a walk. He now has 15 saves for Birmingham. He only blew 1 save, correct?

qwerty Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 (edited) You guys are acting like wohlers was a scrub his whole career. He has a good string of three or four years in a row.

Well, headcase or not, I don't see how Jenks could possibly be any worse than Shingo. Shingo is a meatball waiting to happen and I'm sure his head probably isn't screwed on too straight right about now.

He only went crazy for about a year and a half which is pretty weird considering he pitched a couple more years after that without awful walk rates.
