January 10, 200818 yr Kip Wells was with us for like 3 seasons though and had significant pitching time in the majors.... Fogg had like maybe 15 innings.
January 10, 200818 yr oh yeah i didnt even think about that. i knew he was pitching in the majors i was just trying to think of young pitchers that we traded
January 10, 200818 yr So does this list lend Kenny a little bit of credibility when the subject of trading away prospects comes up? No, Gregory Pratt will just use the list to show much of a failure his farm system is. I don't think Javier Lopez should be on that list either as he was hardly a "prospect" when he was traded.
January 10, 200818 yr Javier Lopez? The same guy who had already pitched in over 170 games for Colorado and Arizona?
January 10, 200818 yr QUOTE(bigruss22 @ Jan 8, 2008 -> 10:48 PM) Sorry to be offtopic here, but I just noticed you were from Ann Arbor, are you a student or what? I thought I was the only Sox fan here! I actually just moved out of Ann Arbor, I just haven't updated my profile to reflect it. Right now I'm in Carbondale, but I was in Ann Arbor for like 3 years previous. I'm not a U of M student, I was born there, moved to Chicago, then moved back for some reason. I was very disappointed to learn that even though I was moving to the Sox's state, I wouldn't get Sox games in Carbondale. Doesn't seem fair to me. All of Illinois should show them. At least I have WGN. And B-dubs like I had in Ann Arbor.

I had some Quatro's for the first time in like 3 years. I didn't see Jeff, but Kristin is still there.
January 11, 200818 yr I'm actually surprised to see the relative lack of success out of that group of players, who on that list has done anything in the league? Majewski, Fogg and maybe a few guys who had a cup of coffee in the bigs but that's about it. So maybe I won't rush to judgement just yet on the Swisher trade, I'll give it a few years, then we'll see

Fogg while overall for his career has struggled had a pretty decent season for the Rockies and was pivitol for them down the stretch. Than besides that Majewski, Frankie Francisco, Jon Rauch, and Matt Guerrier have had some success. Than the jury is still out on guys like Josh Rupe, Gio, Lumsden, Cortez, and De Los Santos. Not 2 mention he apparently really dropped the ball on Fabio Castro.

I'm in awe of it every time its mentioned. Edited January 11, 200818 yr by max power
