That Red Thingy Thang is obviously out of my range of capabilities. Maybe Cox wasn’t selected b/c he has fleas. Oy

I’ve keep track of Nova a little bit, if for no other reason than his great name. Ivan Nova just has a great ring to it, and the potential nicknames are fun too!

I think it was that he started off pretty well and then sucked. But Cox was never a strikeout pitcher, just a groundball machine. Obviously, this season is key, especially with all of the BP fodder in the system..

Testing I hope that worked. I suck at HTML

Use html code: [a href="http://URLGOESHERE"]WORDSGOHERE[/a], except replace the brackets with greater and less than signs. You can get the URL by right clicking on the date of the comment you want and selecting “copy link location” then pasting that link into the code above.

As for Cox, no he was awful in the second half: 7.30 ERA, 9 BB, 6 K.

Oh, Cliff, how do you do the fancy html link to my post?

Cliff, I have, but he was coming off an injury. With his pedigree you’d think someone would take a flier on a possible bullpen part. Also, didn’t he come on stronger near the end of the year?

Tommy, Have you looked at his numbers from Scranton last year? 4.75 ERA, 17 BB vs. 16 K. Just 4 K/9.

Amazed no one took Cox. Is there something I don’t know?

Steven Jackson…

The last remnants of the “whatever you have lying around” Randy Johnson trade.

At least Randy got injured.
