Ankle...

A twisted ankle that this time of year isn't a big deal. Let him rest it out. Hopefully that is all that it is.

why does the box score say Freddy Garcia is playing 2b?

Just a hunch, but maybe a minor league camper wearing #43 fooled someone.

Has Jenks ever come to camp ready to go?

My thoughts exactly. He seems to get hit hard in spring too. I'm not worried.

I thought the same thing. Haha.

at least Beckham's putting on a clinic.

 

Rios as well. Both have hit the ball real well today. Funny I told some here that Mitchell would still be a PR or late inning replacement OF/PH after getting reassigned in the last game thread, and here he is getting injured. Hopefully it's not serious, but I hate to hear it's his ankle which is not a good place to have a guy, especially with speed, get hurt on.

Tell that to Robin Ventura.

He's had a little issue with his calf and apparently couldn't find anyone to catch him this winter so he's a little behind. I can't imagine the White Sox wouldn't have been able to find someone for Jenks to throw to. For all the maturing this guy seems to be doing, it just shows he still has a ways to go.

Yeah, seems like no excuse to me. Go to any college, and I bet those players would be lining up to catch a major league closer.

I'll catch him. I'd pay for the experience. Just give me a whole lot of F***ing armor.

Ventura did a little more than twist an ankle.

Freddy got a walk and then scored

remember that? I had a hard time watching that.

Between Ventura at home, Moises Alou at second, Jason Kendall at first and Cliff Floyd's arm at 1B, I'd like to be able to un-watch all 4.

how about cameron and beltran in the OF? that was sick.

Geoff Jenkins at third is one of the worst I've ever seen and Ruben Mateo at first to a much lesser extent.

Remember that guy from San Francisco, who ended up having his arm amputated. Hameker I think?

Dave Dravecky had cancer cut out of his pitching shoulder then pitched again 10 months later but in his 2nd start back pitching to Tim Raines his arm just snapped.

thats the one

They have the story of his cancer and injury on youtube.

Shame, because THAT is the lineup I'd want to see tonight. Who do we have then? Paulie, Pierre, Jones, Kotsay, Teahen. Remind me who's pitching tonight?

Lucas Harrell starting.

We are making up for the last game vs. them.

I'm going to Murphys bar (wrigleyville) for some girls birthday tonight, do you think I can catch that game there?

Went to the Sox game in Tempe today. I had another great time. I got autographs from Ramirez, Beckham, Gartrell, Morel, Armstrong, and great pictures with Beckham and Ramirez. Also, got Chris Chambliss and Jenksy to wave, Peavy to give me a nod, a thanks from Jacob Rasner, and Tony Pena to give me a fist bump. Game wise: Rios, Peavy, and Beckham look great. Dialed in and ready to go. Matt Long looked great as well. Jenksy was shaky, nearly all of his pitches were flat, and his curves didn’t break. I saw what happened to Jared Mitchell, and it was pretty frightening. He read that ball perfectly off the bat, and hit the wall hard. He lay there as rounds of applause, and chants of “Web Gem,” echoed through the stadium. I hope he’s ok.
