Another Addition to the Rotation?

Glendon Rusch To Attempt Comeback

 

Southpaw Glendon Rusch missed the 2007 season because of a blood clot in his lung. He's one of the good guys in baseball, and we're rooting for him here at MLBTR.

 

According to his agency, Rusch is ready to go and has declared free agency. The 33 year-old will throw a bullpen session for teams on Friday. He's been throwing for a couple of months now. Rusch has never had an arm problem, and he's lost weight recently. He's been throwing 86-88 with good command and should be considered for open fifth starter gigs. At worst, he makes a good swingman. I'm guessing he'd sign for $1MM with maybe another million or two in incentives

:roll:

I'll agree that Rusch is one of the good guys, but I can't see anyone giving him anything but a spring training NRI.

Did you forget Dusty is back? He'll make sure Rusch gets 3 years/19 mill

So true. Hell the sad thing is Rusch could be #3 in Cincy.

If Glendon Rusch goes to Cincy, how does Arroyo increase his career home run total?

Glendon Rusch is the kind of guy that you really like to see making a lot of money pitching for one of your rivals.

Get your bra's ready, man [expletive] is back!

Who wrote that? No, at worst he makes an awful pitcher who eats up roster space and money.

Couldn't be more true. I hope he pitches far, far, far away from the Cubs.

[Outshined_One]

I'm happy he's fully recovered from his problems, but I hope he stays the hell away from the Cubs.

You took the words right out of my mouth. He seems like one of the nicest guys around, but I don't want him on this team.

[hardcorecubfan]

wish him the best of luck in the american league, in the Nat'l he would probably be a Cub killer
