Sirotka Released

Featured Replies

The Blue Jays have officially given him up. I wonder if the Sox go out and bring him back and see if he can make it back as a possible lefty reliever.

ummm not only no but hell no... correct me if im wrong here but siro hasnt pitched since he left here.. and with the bad terms he left on i highly doubt he will be making a comeback in chicago anytime soon.............

Actually no. LOL. I thought we were getting the better end of the deal and was jacked about the prospect of what could have been after the 2000 season. And 2001, as we all know, was a HUGE letdown :mad:

Last I knew Siro had a real problem with the Sox mgt. I doubt he's comin back here.

I always remember him mentioning after the trade he wouldn't mind coming back here when his contract was up and that he said he never had a problem with Reinsdorf.

 

By the way, it was a good trade, it didn't pan out, but the thought and concept of the trade was good.

Uhm, no.

 

He talked about coming back to Chicago, hinting the Cubs.

I love Sirotka, and I hope he can come back at pitch again, no matter where.

HSC called this one prefectly.No f***ing way Sirotka comes back to the South Side.

yeah, any pipedream of him returning to the 99-00 years is exactly that, a pipedream

Isn't it amazing how some careers end so quickly?

Sirotka may never be on a team again, may never be interviewed again, may never be "bothered" by fans again.

I don't know if he was a jerk or not, but it's amazing how quckly guys come in and fade away.

 

It amazes me how baseball teams have paid pitchers multi year contracts for so many years when the arm can go at any time.

It's probably the only philosophy Reinsdork has I agree with in THEORY. Now when every other good team is paying multi years and we aren't, we lose in the deal, but in theory I think JR is right on that one.

 

That said, give Mark B. a hefty RAISE!

I'm with you on that. I think its just so risky paying a pitcher so much over the long haul cause they are so succeptible for injuries, but its also something that just has to be done to compete.

 

Of course I think those times are changing now because I no longer think we will see guys like Sterling Hithcock making something like 7 million a year.

Most injurys pitchers can come back from. Surgry these days can revive many pitchers carrers, but you have to do multi year contracts to get pitchers locked up because they are the most important posistion on the field and the hardest to find 4-5 guys to start
