April 20, 200817 yr QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Apr 19, 2008 -> 11:25 PM) He is in AA, so it doesn't affect anything. he's in AA but he's a veteran pitcher as far as MLB experience is concerned, the sox could bring him up from AA if they wanted to

He's a 23 year old pitcher that the Sox lost in the Rule V draft, the A's decided it wasn't worth keeping him on the big club all season so they returned him to the Sox for $25,000. He won't even sniff Chicago this season.

April 20, 200817 yr yeah, I think he's thinking of Roberto Hernandez, who was coincidently in the booth today w/ Hawk and DJ.

Basically he's back in our minors. Not sure where you pulled him blocking Wass out of.
April 20, 200817 yr This entire thread makes no sense. "Yes. This is going to get us to the playoffs!" We are in first place right now and this isn't exactly the time to make moves.

April 20, 200817 yr Someone obviously confused here. The kid weas a ruleV darft pick. Maybe he has some upside since the A's took him, but is it ever going to be with the Sox? Also, Roberto was on with Hawk and DJ last night over WGN. He said he was having a good ole time reconnecting with his family now that he is out of baseball.

April 22, 200817 yr I'm pretty happy about it, as I mentioned in some other thread where this came up. He was one of two pitchers we lost in a recent Rule V draft that I was a little annoyed about (the other being Ryan Wing).

April 22, 200817 yr As Dan pointed out in the games thread; Rodriguez and Fernando Hernandez combined to hold the Diamond Jaxx hitless over the final 4 2/3 innings. 2IP, 1BB and 3K's.
