maggsmaggs Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 Day is good, but he is giving up too many hits per innings. Prinz would be a better choice, Day still needs more seasoning in my opinion. But I guess I was right when I said awhile back he would be up before the all-star break. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteSoxfan1986 Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 Day really just had a bad three game stretch. Good to see him called up, not to excited about Gonzalez though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maggsmaggs Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 We didnt need a power arm, we needed a veteran with major league experience who can throw strikes. Day is not that, but Prinz is that. I just don't get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chisoxfn Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 I'm stoked to see Day up here. He's got major league stuff, but I'm not sure if he has major league command yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually he was more successful against lefties in the minors than righties. I would rather him face lefties since righties will see his slider for slightly longer and have a better chance of laying off it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 Maybe it's me, but usually righty sliders pitchers get destroyed by lefty hitters, but they can dominate righty hitters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BearSox Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 Where was this awesome slider I kept hearing about? I was really excited to see it, but it really wasn't anything special. He does have a nice live fastball though. And Andy Gonzalez is useless. All teams need 5 reserve infielders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Tizzle Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 QUOTE(Heads22 @ May 28, 2007 -> 04:26 PM) Day should not pitch for this team again this year. Williams is desperate. He decided to call-up the reliever with the best-stuff over someone such as Prinz who is the more complete pitcher. Day's presence just reminded everyone who forgot that instant success and White Sox prospects don't go together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitesoxfan101 Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 A weird combo....a somewhat inspired callup in a gay like Day who has the stuff to get major league hitters out (those yearning for Prinz make me laugh, he's nothing) and also a pathetic callup to pander to Ozzie in Gonzalez.

Chisoxfn Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 What the Sox need is at least one solid veteran reliever (someone that can teach this young arms a thing or two) that isn't named Cooper (because he can only do so much). We need an outfielder and we need a reliever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
