southsider2k5 Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 http://blogs.chicagosports.chicagotribune....-white-sox.html Clayton Richard to start Wednesday for White Sox By Dave van Dyck Left-hander Clayton Richard will start in Cleveland in Wednesday for Jose Contreras, who apparently will be sent to the minor leagues for regular work, although the White Sox have not officially announced that. Richard started eight times last season and was 2-5 with a 6.35 ERA, but said that experience will help him. "Coming up last year as a starter and spending really my whole professional career as a starter, I'm comfortable in that role and excited to get another opportunity," he said. Contreras threw a bullpen sessions for pitching coach Don Cooper Sunday morning and said he felt fine. "Whatever they want to do is fine," he said. "I just want to help the team win."

elrockinMT Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 (edited) He pitched a couple good games last year so hopefully he steps up Edited May 11, 2009 by elrockinMT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleHurt05 Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Good to hear, albeit a week or two later than it should have happened. Hopefully he can build off the success he had in his starts late last year, especially that one at Yankee Stadium. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
