It's sad to see a guy who led the league in ERA years ago and now...well, doesn't.

 

Welcome to the joys of pitching at SafeCo with an amazing defense behind you. Jim Parque could have been effective there.

Just got in and saw the bottom of the 6th. Where has the problem been tonight/ Freddy looked OK.

The problem has been Freddy throwing batting practice fastballs and all of his pitches have been very hittable, despite a good past couple of innings.

 

And, of course, we've gotten almost no timely hitting.

Does anyone know anything about the minor league catcher the Sox have, Lucy? I saw him in Spring Training, and he has an unbelievable arm.

Highly touted player when we drafted him out of Stanford. Great athlete, very raw and he supposedly calls a great game. The pitchers we've interviewed at FutureSox have all raved about Lucy's game calling ability and well defensive prowess.

 

OFfensively he's still building his game and he had some troubles early in his minor league career but he's done better as of late. Still he's a few years away from the show, but the upside is definately there as he's a top notch athlete.

You make great points in just about every post you ever produce, but Parque and effective should never be used in the same sentence.

You should know by now that Jim Parque is my standard for "excellence". Hell....Buehrle's been resembling Parque recently.

Leave Jim alone. He was very friendly and a good tipper when I waited on him back in the day.

Thanks, I'm going to keep my eye on him. I just saw him when they were taking infield and it was one of the most impressive throwing performances I've ever seen.
