Hope for a successful return. Another fine example of what can happen to a top pitching prospect.

Hopefully he gets his control back.

We don't really have that much pitching depth. We don't really have that much pitching depth. FOR GOD SAKE, VERUCA, DON'T GO FAKE TRADING JONATHAN SANCHEZ. We don't really have that much pitching depth

Foppert always (sadly) reminds me of something Dr. James Andrews said that we should always keep in mind; “you show me somebody who started pitching later in his life, I’ll show you one of my future patients.”

Ironic

that Sickels used Foppert’s baseball card at the top of his Giants prospects list

One of my favorite prospects ever returns. Even though he pretty much sucks now.

Jesse Foppert still makes me sad.

So do Kurt Ainsworth and Jerome Williams.

Woe.

Also, I don’t think this is really a “return” – Foppert pitched at Fresno last year, did he not?

His belly-itching, however, was formidable.

Tyler Walker, my son, it's time you left the nest. No seriously. Go.

Is this the Giants trying to get something in return for all the money they spent on surgeries and rehab for this poor guy?

by m34josh on Dec 31, 2008 11:48 AM PST reply actions   0 recs

Next season he will be on the grounds crew.

by Lars The Wanderer on Dec 31, 2008 3:49 PM PST up reply actions   0 recs

for what? not having a secure landing spot for his front foot?

by wilriv21 on Dec 31, 2008 3:51 PM PST up reply actions   0 recs

For not having a comfortable folding chair by the tarp.

If we can get Torrealba back, it’ll be like we got Randy Winn for free!
