Guest Smues Report post Posted April 27, 2005 Huzzah Foster finishes it and Smoltz gets his first win as a starter since....2001? 1999? I don't remember if he got a win as a starter in one of his few starts of 2001. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He'll be sent down when Wang is called up to join the rotation. But I could be wrong. Both deserve a chance. Bean has a career 11.68 K/9 rate in the minor leagues, along with a reasonable walk rate and very low HR rate. And according to Baseball Prospectus, Wang's projections were every bit as good as Jaret Wright's, before Wright's injury. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bruiser Chong 0 Report post Posted April 27, 2005 It should be noted that with two outs, Hollandsworth was up in a spot that was originally Dubois'. Of course, Dubois getting to play a complete game is unacceptable, especially when Holly's .214 clutch bat is rotting away on the bench. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Czech Republic 0 Report post Posted April 27, 2005 Dusty Baker has gotta go, but this is Chicago, and you know Jesse Jackson would be on it in a heartbeat demanding that the Cubs hire another black manager, as well as another black coach, and sell 5% of the club to a black investor. Preferably, all these positions would be filled by Jackson's sons and relatives. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KingPK 0 Report post Posted April 27, 2005 Lovely, now Schilling goes on the DL because of a bone bruise in his ankle. This means Matt Clement is the #1 starter for a while and that John Halama is going into the rotation. They're probably going to have to dip into Pawtucket as well since they aren't going to rush Miller in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
