I agree with dessens as well, a lousy pick up, only here cause he's a lefty

He's actually right handed :-?

Yeah, I have a problem with correcting people. Maybe I should work on that. :-?

Spurling is a solid reliever. I know one of his best friends. Met him at a WSU game last year (his friend was checking out Joe Smith). Spurling is solid. Better than Aquino, I can gaurantee that.

nono, correct away, i'd rather not tell someone else he's a lefty if he ain't...i remember spurling coming up last year sometime, can't remember what he did

He struggled a bit with the Crew. He gave up 8 runs (all earned) in 10 innings but his career ERA is only 4.21 so its not like he's a scrub like Jeff Bennett was.

Now we just need to send Dessends down for Zach "Action" Jackson for that ever so coveted bullpen lefty.

Wow, Chris Spurling? Wonder if Jose C. is throwing a party for Chris S giving him a big send off for his trip to the bigs?

I would think this is the final nail. Permanent AWOL for Cappy.

Capellan screwed himself over big time

Yep, exactly.

He shoulda figured that Aquino/Dessens would screw up enough to get himself back in the majors. I mean we are the Milwaukee Brewers, you can pretty much count on one pretty horrible reliever a season. Karma anyone?
