SweetJfour Posted July 16, 2003 Share Posted July 16, 2003 If nothing else we know that the White Sox are an outstanding farm system for grooming relief pitchers. Anybody check out Keith Foulke last night? OOPS!!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlliniKrush Posted July 16, 2003 Share Posted July 16, 2003 I'm sick of people tooting the rocky biddle horn around here He wasn't that good when he was here, how many times did they got get rocked? Furthermore, and more importantly, not one person said "oh no, we gave up rocky biddle to get BARTOLO COLON". When we gave up Foulke for Koch, people had doubts right away, and that's fine. But remember we got Colon for Biddle. I'll take it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IlliniKrush Posted July 16, 2003 Share Posted July 16, 2003 There's always something like "geez, biddle has X amount of saves for the spos, wish we had him, nice job kenny" around here So easily people forget that was the Colon deal.

IlliniKrush Posted July 16, 2003 Share Posted July 16, 2003 Wins for a starting pitcher don't mean all that much because most of it isn't even controlled by the pitcher anyway. Colon has pitched pretty well this year and has been the unfortunate recipient of some bad offensive performances and bullpen performances. The foulke trade, well, that trade sucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't take out frustration of a bad Koch deal on the Biddle/Colon trade Two separate issues That's what i meant when i said this, i guess it wasn't clear, not a huge deal I just meant that people always seem really mad about biddle being gone because of Koch sucking it up, and that's not a fair assessment because they forget that we got Colon for him and Liefer and Osuna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IlliniKrush Posted July 16, 2003 Share Posted July 16, 2003 I've been pretty satisfied with him this year. A few hiccups, but pretty solid overall, and he's logged what like 5 complete games? It's certainly not a "bust", and i think if this team was playin better it'd lift his level of performance as well. If the ERA was a bit lower, maybe like 3.75, i'd say that he'd be performing exactly how i expected him to. Regardless, Rocky Biddle sucked here and only showed few signs of promise and Liefer and Osuna, well, they aren't doing much now are they. That deal was totally totally worth the "risk". And even if Colon isn't here another year or two or whatever....were Biddle, Liefer, and Osuna gonna be part of this Sox team for years to come? I'm not so sure about that.
