BHAMBARONS Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 QUOTE(Hangar18 @ Jun 14, 2006 -> 07:30 AM) Wow. Cant believe the DBacks just outright released him. Thats a lot of money Well he sucks plain and simple. He won 5 games since he joined AZ and has a 7.00 ERA. He couldn't get outs in starting rotation, or the bullpen, or at Triple A the D-Backs gave him two more starts and was crushed so it was time for him to go. He wasn't going to get it right in AZ he was booed off the field in his last two outings. He is still walks people but now the velocity is down to 86-88 you just can't get away with doing that.

BFirebird Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 QUOTE(rudylaw @ Jun 15, 2006 -> 04:55 PM) Isnt he the guy that Sox fans were begging to get a few years ago? Yeah...he was a part of the alleged Andruw Jones deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punch and Judy Garland Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 From my recollection, Sox fans were appalled at the idea of getting this guy whereas he seemed to be an obsession to an extent of one Kenny Williams. Luckily we have all five rotation spots filled so Kenny can't fulfill his Russ Ortiz fantasies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackTalkThai Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 I hope Dave Dombrowski is watching this transpire and realizing that he has a similarly useless and overpaid relief pitcher on his hands *COUGH TODD JONES* that would be in his team's best interests if he got rid of. With the exception of the K and BB totals, Ortiz and Jones have put up nearly identical numbers this year. ERA's in the mid 7's and both are giving up just about a run per inning pitched.
