DBAHO Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 Well so much for the thinking that Nelson was going to majorly help our pen about a month back when we had the likes of Logan up here. Montero's outing tonight gave me a little bit of hope. He'll need to cut down on the extra base hits and HR's, but at least the guy throws strikes. Gotta feel for Nelson though.

ShoeLessRob Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 QUOTE(greg775 @ Jun 7, 2006 -> 11:17 PM) Will Nelson get a World Series ring when we win it? If Kevin Walker got a ring last year ... I'm sure Nelson will get one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Tizzle Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 Didn't forsee surgery, but knew from the moment reports surfaced of his velocity he was meat. If only I had the search feature available. There were numerous people giving myself and others flack for doubting his ability. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxfan101 Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 Not surprising at all....and after hearing his comments today on Grimsley, I'm glad he won't be playing in our uniform anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalapse Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 QUOTE(MHizzle85 @ Jun 8, 2006 -> 12:33 AM) What did he say about Grimsley? Basically that what Grimsley did (ratting out his fellow ballplayers) was wrong simply because you're supposed to look out for the other players in the league. Which is just a stupid comment to make. Instead of taking the oppertunity to rip Grimsley for using and distributing HGH he goes ahead and rips him for ratting out other cheating pricks.

KevHead0881 Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 Somewhere Jabroni is crying. So, what was your favorite moment of the Jeff Nelson era? His stay here is almost as memorable as the immortal Jose Paniagua's stint a few years back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bjm676 Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 Yep, he sure is finished. I heard during the game that Nelson told Ed Farmer that he's going to hang 'em up if he's has to have surgery. The 4 appearances were memorable and will lodged in my brain forever.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
