    No, it wouldn't. The Cubs can shuttle him between the big leagues and the minors all season if they wanted to.
  2. CaliforniaRaisin
    Seeing as the temps are getting into the mid-90s during the day in Phoenix already, it's probably a good idea.
  3. CaliforniaRaisin
    Nice pics!
  4. CaliforniaRaisin
    Sort of like facing Prior, Wood and Z in the big leagues... (:()
  5. CaliforniaRaisin
    Haha, Gallagher, Veal and Samardzija? That's a hell of a front end of the rotation.
  6. CaliforniaRaisin
    Aww, you guys are going to see the White Sox? You'll miss seeing Mark Prior pitching at Fitch!!

    Teams definitely conduct try-outs. I went to an Orioles try-out my senior year of high school. I highly doubt they have a walk-on sort of thing. The Padres invited a Marine to camp who had just gotten back from Iraq. He's supposed to be a pitcher, but he's missing a finger or two on his throwing hand from when a flash-bang went off in his hand. I haven't heard much about how he's doing though... Not to lessen the story, because it is a nice one, but he lost a finger (I believe his pinky) on his non-throwing hand. I have not heard how he has faired so far this spring, but I'll check it out. http://www.baseballamerica.com/today/majors/features/263439.html

    Nah. It'll end in the 9th... Was that a prediction? That was an abrupt and quick way for the Diamondbacks to win it.
  10. CaliforniaRaisin
    Carrie Muskat chimes in. Mentions what Samardzija thought of his facing Barry Bonds.
  11. CaliforniaRaisin
    Yeah, the Cubs took him as a 19th rounder in 2004 (as a sophomore - he slipped because of his bonus demands) and he returned to college. Wasn't he at GT when we drafted him, but then he transferred to Tulane? Yup. That year, the Cubs drafted EPatt and Owings. Eric signed with the Cubs and Micah decided to transfer to Tulane.
  12. CaliforniaRaisin
    Scott Eyre now in.

  15. CaliforniaRaisin
    Awesome.
  16. CaliforniaRaisin
    Huh, who is Jesus Valdez? Minor league OF, he was at Peoria last season and will be at Daytona this coming season. I see... Is this his first action this Spring? Probably, he doesn't have any PAs before today.
  17. CaliforniaRaisin
    Dempster gave up 1 R on 2 hits. DBacks now up 5-3.

    Gameday took it back, Daryle Ward got a walk instead. Yeah I saw that. Gameday has gone crazy on me. And now Jake Fox replaces Daryle Ward defensively at first base in the bottom of the 7th. Gameday is on crack. ETA: And now Fox moves to C.
  20. CaliforniaRaisin
    Gameday took it back, says Daryle Ward got a walk instead.

    :shock: 7.0 IP, 6 ER, 10 R, 17 H, 3 K/0 BB. That's a 2.42 WHIP. And Aardsma's stat line: 5.2IP, 7 ER, 8 R, 11 H, 4 K/3 BB, 11.12 ERA, 2.5 WHIP Great trade, eh?
  22. CaliforniaRaisin
    Will the Scrantonicities open for them?
  23. CaliforniaRaisin
    The Cubs get 1 back (Theriot RBI groundout) and Felix Pie is still in scoring position with 1 out.
  24. CaliforniaRaisin
    The 5 R = 5 ER, sorry. I corrected it in the second post after he gave up his 6th ER.
  25. CaliforniaRaisin
    :shock: 7.0 IP, 6 ER, 10 R, 17 H, 3 K/0 BB. That's a 2.42 WHIP.
