We're gonna regret that trade when Hudson ends up with similar numbers to EJax and were stuck with the price tag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThunderBolt Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 This trade is never going to sit well with me. Watching this game he's throwing against the Mets isn't helping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThunderBolt Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 Huddy's slider is working tonight. Looks to have a nice 8 MPH disparity between that slide piece and his fastball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 The highest "game score" Edwin Jackson recorded this year was 85. I wonder what the number for Huddy is today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitesoxfan101 Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 (edited) I know the inevitable "how do YOU know how much Arizona wanted?" response will come to this point, but it's just a shame we gave up Hudson for Edwin Jackson. I find it almost impossible to believe that the price for him was that steep. Then again, I still don't think Huddy would have been anything more than a rotation filler 4th or 5th guy in the AL. Maybe the NL will make him look a lot better like it has so many other pitchers though. Edited August 1, 2010 by whitesoxfan101 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 I find it laughable that not only did we have to give up Hudson for Jackson, but Holmberg was to be added from our end as well. Insult to injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AWhiteSoxinNJ Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 AL vs. NL. Hitters park vs. Pitchers park. Let's all relax a bit before putting Hudson in the Hall of Fame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's all relax a bit before putting Hudson in the Hall of Fame. Ya it's only one start. I remember seeing the same things with John Ely when he had his hot start, who I was never a fan of cause of limited upside (though I hate Juan Pierre also so I didn't mind people hating on the trade), but I will root for him cause he is a sox fan. With that said though, I was one of Huddy's biggest fans since he was drafted out of Old Dominion. Didn't like the trade, but am willing to see what EJax can do with us. I will be rooting for Huddy for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's all relax a bit before putting Hudson in the Hall of Fame. No one is putting him on a pedestal. All people are saying is that his start was good and the trade was bad. One of which is fact. The other is opinion that people are worried will soon be supported by facts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sox made Edwin Jackson wait in a hotel room instead of coming to the ballpark till 3:00 ET while Kenny worked the phones. The Sox were clearly making efforts to move him.

I hope Edwin plays with a chip on his shoulder now trying to prove to Kenny that it is a GOOD thing that they couldn't work out a deal to trade away EJax.

He's had a "chip on his shoulder" for the past 4+ years now. But hey, maybe the 5th team in 4 years is the lucky charm for him...

This game was played in Citi Field in NYC, which is a pitcher's park. OTOH...we can kinda make the "going to a stronger league and to an even better power hitter's park" argument for why Jackson isn't going to improve.
