July 20, 200817 yr QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 20, 2008 -> 05:10 PM) WHat is Chuck Haegers schedule? Pitched last night.
July 20, 200817 yr I'm guessing we'll see somebody called up for a spot start (or be the long man backing up Masset if he starts). If they bring up someone to start.... Haeger started on Saturday. Broadway is pitching on Sunday (game already started). So those two are likely out. Whisler could be in line, but he's not on the 40-man. I'd love to see them bring up Clayton Richard. But I'm guessing Egbert, who would be pitching on 5-days rest on Tuesday and has been throwing very well lately. Edited July 20, 200817 yr by scenario

July 20, 200817 yr Show us something kid. It'd be REALLY refreshing to see a minor leaguer come in an earn a prominent role on the team. OR, show us you're ready for the MLB so we can trade you for a good SP.
July 21, 200817 yr i looked around online and couldnt find anything of a scouting report on him. whats the deal? only thing i saw was that rotoworld says he is to be " the next heath phillips of the white sox farm system"
July 21, 200817 yr yep yep - any info on his stuff? all i can find is rotoworld calling it "mediocre" they probably said that about burelhe too. =)
July 21, 200817 yr I've listened to a few of his starts via mlb audio. His fastball was in the 92-93 range. He threw off speed pitches that dropped down to around 77-78. Don't remember much about his repertoire, but do remember he threw an effective curve in the games I heard.
July 21, 200817 yr QUOTE (hi8is @ Jul 20, 2008 -> 07:51 PM) right on dude, thanks this has to be a showcase for a trade, no? Maybe. But who knows? If he looks decent, I'd keep him around for pitching depth. Can never have enough pitching in a pennant race. Especially the way Contreras and Javy have been throwing lately.

July 21, 200817 yr QUOTE (spiderman @ Jul 20, 2008 -> 08:18 PM) I'm expecting Texas to pound him. The same Texas team that just scored a whopping 3 total runs in the last 3 games?
July 21, 200817 yr with the exception of russells last outing i liked what i saw from him and frankly id rather have him on the roster than masset, but im excited to see richard....when he was drafted not a lot of people expected too much out of him,
July 21, 200817 yr QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jul 20, 2008 -> 08:29 PM) The same Texas team that just scored a whopping 3 total runs in the last 3 games? They clearly hit much better in Texas, but I still like them against a minor league pitcher.
July 21, 200817 yr Richard is probably the replacement for Jose who was DL'ed and Carassco called up to replace him, carassco is the long man so i'm guessing Richard will get JC's next start
July 21, 200817 yr QUOTE (spiderman @ Jul 20, 2008 -> 08:05 PM) They clearly hit much better in Texas, but I still like them against a minor league pitcher. The Twins entire rotation is made up of minor league pitchers.
July 21, 200817 yr Ive seen him pitch twice this year. The sox are pretty high on him. He looked great in the southern league. Kind of remind's me of Buehrle a little bit, little more on the fastball though. Obviously doesnt have the stuff Mark does, but he has an excellent move and is quick to the plate. He also works very fast. Hope that helps
