It could be but it's just so hard to give up an arm like that. We'll see, you could be right but I'd venture to guess that he'll be in the White Sox organization for a while.

People aren't excited about him because he had 1 nice inning, it's the fact he has a tremendous arm, one of the best you'll find in all of baseball. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nokona 197 Posted July 7, 2005 Bobby "You Cant Touch This" Jenks. "Flawless" "Trainwreck" (could co-inside with the new Boys Night Out CD of the same name) /street team "Laloosh" or "Nuke" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
southsideirish71 1,144 Posted July 7, 2005 I would say that if Jenks starts flooding the strikezone with 99mph GAS, it will be the audition for trading Mr. Takatsu or Mr. Vizcaino. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jake 318 Posted July 7, 2005 Jenks has to get us Oswalt if he's traded. And Oswalt better be locked up long-term. Might want to throw Ensberg in there too just for good measure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bmags 8,355 Posted July 7, 2005 i was just thinking how funny it would be to have back to back innings...the first with shingo and the second with jenks...try to catch up with that fast ball after seeing a 67 mph frizbee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chisoxfn 1,514 Posted July 7, 2005 QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Jul 6, 2005 -> 09:05 PM) It is very possible this could be an auditon for a trade, very possible, but I dont think that will be the case. However, he could almost be a centerpiece to a big time trade. If I were another team, I'd have to say of all the guys in the system, I'd demand Jenks, Young and than McCarthy. I'd also take Tracey over Gio and Anderson over Sweeney. In fact Anderson could basically get pushed up into the A list, although I'd take Young over Anderson (if I were the opposing GM). Thats just my perspective on what I'd be doing if I were another team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MattZakrowski 0 Posted July 7, 2005 When I saw him walk out, I thought 1 man to a pair of pants out there, then I saw him throw 99 and was amazed, he threw the 80 MPH change, and the 85 curve, but all of his other pitches were 95+, making me think he dosen't have a lot of confidence in his off-speed stuff.

Probably because he has no offspeed stuff. He's a flamethrower. 1.) 97+ Fastball with movement 2.) 12-6 hard 85 MPH Curve - out pitch 3.) Hard sinker that he learned this year and bearly pitches Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
