Heads22 Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Jun 8, 2007 -> 09:38 PM) Russell has fallen off a cliff recently. Whatever he had earlier is obviously gone. Gonzalez better not falter one bit. His presence is key to our future, whether or not he's a future #2 or #4 (as people seem to believe). Still wondering how we're going to match the pitching staffs within the division. De Los Santos is still too raw, and too far away. Egbert could see his way to the pen this year as his skillset would work best at USCF, but I'd kinda rather that didn't happen. Lefties are still hitting him a bit. Lefties are hurting Russell. Gio is limiting both, but I'd be surprised to see them bring him up for the pen. Of course, Vasquez and Reynoso in AAA are slowing down now, and I don't see Oneli coming up. Best case, Aardsma figures something out. MacDougal hasn't pitched in a while, IIRC, so maybe they are letting him get some rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Tizzle Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 Future All-Star Josh Fields completely whiffs on two sliders. Currently 0/11 on the season, and proving once again how pitiful this organization is at producing talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 Fields could face Lidge 100 times, and he'd probably K 90 times. QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Jun 9, 2007 -> 02:45 AM) Future All-Star Josh Fields completely whiffs on two sliders. Currently 0/11 on the season, and proving once again how pitiful this organization is at producing talent. The talent level we're putting on the field right now is the worst in a decade. Half the team wouldn't be in the majors on a high quality team. I hope KW is satisfied that he traded Garcia, Gload, and McCarthy, and he only got one guy who can contribute to the 2007 team. Any word on Jerry Owens? At least we don't have to listen to Hawk tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You still didn't answer my question of how we're expected to match the rotations within the division in 2008 and beyond. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're going to dominate with 10 #4 starters! Meanwhile, the Tigers have the potential to have quite a few #1 starters, as do the Twins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 Flash....I can't believe you were expecting a lot of runs tonight. Going down without even a fight.

We have so many bad hitters in our lineup right now. I'm absolutely convinced that Walker needs to go, and get someone new in the hitter's ear. I'm still wondering what Ozzie brings to this team right now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TitoMB345 Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 Over/under on the number of games before Fields gets a hit? is he pulling a Molina? Wow, a scoreless inning for Jenks. Who would have thought? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think 2008 = Gonzalez; 2009 = Egbert. Maybe Poreda is our LIriano. All they have to have him do is tilt his release and teach him a slider.

South Side Fireworks Man Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 8, 2007 -> 07:51 PM) Another start where Danks has little command. Soriano has 3 homers thru 4 innings. It must be nice to have the money to go out and get the top free agents. JR had the money to get Soriano or anybody else that was available. He just wouldn't let Kenny spend it.
