southsider2k5 Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 That could be it for the big guy Jerry Crasnick @jcrasnick Jose Contreras has a torn ligament and tendon in his right elbow. Or as the #phillies would call it, "soreness.'' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 (edited) He's a good man. He actually told KW to sign Alexei Ramirez and told him if he didn't work out, they could take Ramirez's salary out of his check. Obviously that wouldn't happen, but he is one of the biggest, if not the biggest reason the Sox distributed World Championship rings. And there's no way he's only 40.

LittleHurt05 Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 He says he is gonna try & come back but that will be tough. Good luck to him, thanks for being an ace in 05. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swingandalongonetoleft Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 Damn. One of my favorites from the WS era. I was thrilled that he wound up on my NL rooting interest afterwards. Whatever he decides to do, I wish him well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donny Lucy's Avocado Farm Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 Man... poor guy has had 3 or 4 serious and painful injuries. Not just "shoot, I can't play through this one" but more of "shoot, i cant lift a fork to feed myself" or "shoot, i can't walk to the can to relieve myself."

Chisoxfn Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 Jose, you were a rock. Would have loved to see you pitch in the bigs when you were in your 20's (which must have been 30 years ago, haha). Best of luck in the recovery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve9347 Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 From mid 2005 to mid 2006, Jose Contreras was the best pitcher in all of baseball. That was a key period in the history of this franchise. I will always love him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
