Dick Allen Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 (edited) Colon 3 ip 1 h 0 r 0 k so far. I'd like to see a few strikeouts, but considering he hasn't pitched for a while the results look decent. Hopefully he's throwing more than 88 and has an off speed pitch to go with it. Now its 4 ip with 1 hit. Didn't Contreras do the same thing in Charlotte. Maybe lightning can strike twice. Nah.

The Count came back and has been great, so the Sox are fortunate to have 4 solid SPs right now, Colon would just have to be a 5th starter.

bighurt4life Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 Just noticed that Cook is in RF in for Charlotte, finally got a well deserved promotion though it's probably too late for him unless he pulls a Podsednik. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavum Posted July 10, 2009 Author Share Posted July 10, 2009 (edited) Final line on Colon: 5 inn, 2 hits, 1 run, 2 bb, 1 k Torres is in. I assume he'll go four innings. Edited July 10, 2009 by flavum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danman31 Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 07:56 PM) Torres is in. I assume he'll go four innings. If he doesn't, maybe the Sox are looking at Torres as a possible bullpen option. Not that there is currently any room right now though.

scenario Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 (edited) Colon... 5 innings... 65 pitches... 40 strikes. I'll take that for his first outing against hitters in some time.

That would just about finish off our minor league system for the present. If we are going to give up Hudson and Flowers in the same deal, I would ask for Dan Haren at the very least.

I actually want Haren more then Halladay, but Halladay is the superior pitcher who would require a superior package. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haren is younger, and is signed through 2013 at an average rate of about 12.25M. As for the superior pitcher, it's actually much closer than you think. Haren, 73-57, 3.55 ERA, 1,118 IP, 1068 hits, 931 K's, 247 BB's, 1.18 WHIP Halladay, 141-69, 3.47 ERA, 1,930 IP, 1,881 hits, 1,393 K's, 437 BB's, 1.20 WHIP I think it would require a very similar package, Scenario thinks Haren would cost more, which I could actually believe.

Actually Haren would require more in trade. It's not just about quality of the player. You have to look at the contracts. You'd get Halladay for 1 year (2010) @ $15M. You'd get Haren for 4 years (2010-2012 +option year) @ an average cost of less than $12M per year. Teams always pay more to control a player longer... thus a richer package required for Haren. (You beat me to the draw Palehosefan.) Edited July 10, 2009 by scenario Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palehosefan Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 Tyler Flowers 2-3 tonight with a BB, average up to .301 now. However, Danks 0-4 and at .298 now, looks to be struggling after returning from the time off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scenario Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 (edited) Jon Gilmore with a walk-off double in the 9th for a 5-4 Kanny win. CJ Retherford with a bases-clearing 3-run double to help Birmingham regain the lead against Mississippi. Barons up 7-3 in the 7th.

ThunderBolt Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 Hopefully, this is a sign that Retherford is putting things together again. They need him if they're going to keep a decent pace in Birmingham. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxAce Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 I would say at this point, Dexter Carter probably has to throw a no hitter to finally move up to high A. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
