listen, we could go tit for tat all night,

 

Speaking of which, did you read P. 32? It's rather humorous.

Why must you mention everyone that isn't work out?

Not Young, Sweeney, Anderson, Gio, Haigwood, Owens, BMac, Liotta, Valido, Haeger, Rogo, and Tracey?

 

I'm not saying you're wrong, but lets wait until one of them actually contributes a thing at the MLB level. It's way too early to judge any of those guys.

This team sure hasn't been clutch for a while

living and dieing with the longball...

I'm not saying they are gonna be studs either but you could go through any team and bash their system based on busts...

lol hmmm, thank you Captain Obvious, Mr. Darren Jackson.

Tim McCarver is pissed. DJ is stealing his style.

jims my hero. I wish I knew as much about baseball, women, life, beer, food, cars,(oops not cars) as Jim. PS T-bay winning 5-0.

 

I'm glad we got this out in the open.

Well there you have it folks. Where is that "print" button?

BTW -- McCarthy's line tonight (in a rain shortened game): 7 IP, 7 Ks, 3 Hs, 0 R, 0 BBs.

 

His ERA is down to 4.18.

 

Quick saying that he's just gonna be a #4-#5 is one of the dumbest things I've read on this site in a while.

Agreed, but a lot of teams have a lot more to show for their farm system in the last 5 years than the White Sox do. Luckily, we've made some trades that weren't blockbusters that really helped this team (Garland, Uribe, and Marte).

Why's that? It's too early to tell about McCarthy, but he doesn't jump out at me as a sure-fire MLB starter for years to come.

QUOTE(JimH @ Aug 13, 2005 -> 08:50 PM)
bTW the official site is saying Podsednik to the DL is possible, and management or scouts are telling Guillen that Jerry Owens is ready, but Guillen doesn't think he is.

 

So apparantly they're looking at Owens if Pods is out.  We'll see how it goes.  Guillen wants a leadoff guy.

 

 

Jim they should have DL'd him last week when he hurt himself. He has not been the same. THis is why you don't worry about where griffey plays.

Why not?

I worry that Pods won't be the same for the rest of the year.

What were Jon Rauch's numbers back in 2000, when he was considered the top prospect in baseball. The Sox and Expos/Nationals would have loved for him to be a #4 or #5 starter.

Why not?

 

Because he has a very, very straight fastball. Pitching in about half of your games at the Cell, you better learn to pitch down in the count.

Too many people jump the gun with young players (it makes sense to be worried I suppose, with all the busts there are), there may be rare cases, but a starting pitcher in the Major Leagues needs time to develop and learn how to pitch to Major League hitters. Garland is a great example

Tony G is killing us.

They are saying this is an injury he got while playing CF against Oakland. He has been hurt for some time.

I am sorry did any of the guys you mentioned make it? How many of them will make it? how many will play for this team? Last year did you think Diaz was going to be a major league pitcher for somebody and have a career in the majors? You see I didn't.

WTF is Adkins still in there?????? Viz hasn't pitched in a while

Rauch got injured, and never struck out over nine per nine IP at a level above AA. He also never had the control that McCarthy had.

 

BTW, Fathom, McCarthy must be doing something right to have struck out almost 120 in about 105 IP...
