The Ginger Kid Posted June 25, 2005 Share Posted June 25, 2005 Someone may have posted this already, in which case I apologize (it's the first time I've started a topic). But this was an encouraging blurb from the Trib: The Sox may have relief help within their organization. Double-A Birmingham closer Bobby Jenks and outfielder Chris Young were named to play for the United States in the seventh annual Futures Game on July 10 in Detroit. Jenks, 24, is second in the Southern League with 16 saves with 40 strikeouts in 352/3 innings. "Jenks is on a faster track than Young," said Dave Wilder, the Sox's director of player development. "He's up to 98 [m.p.h.] every day." 98??? That's sick. It would be nice to see Jenks fill the roll that Vizcaino is failing to hold down.

Personally I want to see him pitch in Charlotte for a bit if he continues to dominate there then give him a shot but first off Baj deserves a shot and out of everyone in our system Jenks is the guy the Sox need to be the most careful with imo.

jerseysox Posted June 25, 2005 Share Posted June 25, 2005 (edited) A) Jenks is a god damn mental case. And he's always hurt. Don't get too jacked up B) I'm pretty sure his Ks per 9 are pretty crappy if that story is right lol i have to stop breaking down things with capital letters Edited June 25, 2005 by jerseysox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalapse Posted June 25, 2005 Share Posted June 25, 2005 That means no Baj or Anderson in the futures game. That sucks. Although I really didn't expect Anderson to make it after he wasn't named an All-Star this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because the 2 in 2/3 did not have a space in front of it. Lousy observation on his part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
