Joba Chamberlain cut by Tigers

Bobby Jenks!!!

Thank you! I couldn't remember his name for the life of me.

[ELEVEN]

Bobby Jenks!!!

I still have his minor league jersey from the Ranch Cucamonga Quakes. Wish I had gotten Trout's.

[ELEVEN]

I haven't seen one post, including mine, that suggested picking him up. The Tigers DFAd him, there were no trade takers and he was released.

How about oh?

[Dick B Back]

Its hard to keep that weight down when you're on the sauce.

I remember him and Phil Hughes being hyped up as the next Roger Clemens & Andy Pettite.

Yep, that's it.

Who was the WT pitcher that the Angels had? The dude that grew up in a log cabin with no electricity and got in trouble for getting drunk on the team bus.

I feel bad for Jenks -- dude had his career ended by a botched surgery to fix bone spurs in his back.  Of course since this happened while under the supervision of the Red Sox and not the Angels nobody called into question the greatness of the Red Sox front office and their medical staff.

just think if they had.

we'd only be the 2nd worst run organization in baseball

He should pay the Angels to pick him up so he can be one of the top pitchers in baseball after he sucks here.

 

Like Scott Kazmir who suddenly figured out how to pitch again with the Oakland As.
