whitesoxfan101 Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 He still hasn't pitched since late June, all emails, google searches, and otherwise have turned up nothing, and it wasn't a promotion. It's obvious he's injured, I'm just curious what is wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 Tribune reports he has arm tenderness, and will throw in the next few days and will remain in the bullpen. Might as well just keep him out there so he can become Matt Thornton Jr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWSGuy406 Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 Yeah I tried emailing Phil Rogers, but haven't gotten a response. I'd have to imagine he's in some way injured... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BearSox Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 another great pick by a great scouting staff.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 What was the publication that said he couldn't maintain his velocity at his current arm angle without hurting himself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danman31 Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 Dead arm period? I wouldn't get worried yet. It's not uncommon to shut down or limit college first round pitchers anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxfan101 Posted July 14, 2007 Author Share Posted July 14, 2007 http://chicagosports.chicagotribune.com/sp...1,7410479.story Aaron Poreda, the Sox's first pick in the 2007 draft, is scheduled to throw a bullpen session Saturday and stay in the bullpen until he regains full strength. Poreda was clocked at 97 m.p.h. in his last start for Advanced-Rookie Great Falls on June 28 but experienced tenderness in his left arm. He has struck out 10 in nine innings. At long last, an answer. Damn it didn't take long for him to get hurt though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cuz were the white sox, my question is, why wasnt duane schaffer out of a job before the draft? if he was such an integral part of it and was fired for his poor performance in work, why was he allowed to be a part in that draft, one that comes in a time of dire reloading of the farm system Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poreda actually has some gas compared to Lance Broadway for instance. And what about Nevin Griffith in the 3rd? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marky Mark Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 I asked him what was up with his arm and his relieving. He said, "Sup bro, well after my first two starts I told the trainers that my elbow had some pain and they freaked out and shut me down for two weeks. Now for the last couple of weeks they have been babyin me back to healthy. Hopefully I'll get to start soon cuz my arms healthy and go to good. Thx alot for the interest and take care" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 Its probably a case of the guy overthrowing trying to impress his new team and earn his bonus money all at once. Once they get him relaxed he'll be all right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
