Felix finished 3/5 tonight w/ 2 runs - .463 average..

What else does he have to prove down there?

SportsWorld · Post #8 » by **SportsWorld** » Fri May 11, 2007 4:53 am

I am sure Soriano was crushed when he heard the news. Him and Felix were like best friends in the clubhouse.

Stickied. Because I can.

knowing the cubs, once jones isn't here he will probably end up as an amazing all-star player elsewhere.

I've seen Eric a few times vs. the Cougars in Kane County. He seems like a great ballplayer. He has speed and makes more contact than his brother of who I won't speak of anymore...

SportsWorld · Post #14 » by **SportsWorld** » Sat May 12, 2007 3:04 am

Is it really "He-Who-Should-Not-Be-Named"'s brother?

Posey H8er · Post #15 » by **Posey H8er** » Sat May 12, 2007 3:07 am

yes, Eric Patterson is "C****'s" younger brother.

O'Malley is garbage. He's a AAAA pitcher at his best.

Marshall had another solid start today for Iowa and Marmol has been moved to the pen for obvious reasons. Our pen needs a guy who can just bring it. Aardsma was that guy but Hendry gave up on him way too soon. Hopefully we'll see him up here in the not too distant future.
