... here at the Thigh, we've decided to examine each MLB team and where they currently stand. We'll look at how the team did last year, changes that happened or could happen with the team this offseason, and how it looks like the team will do in 2009 as of now. We'll even toss in the hottest thigh associated with each team. In this edition, we look at the Chicago White Sox. 2008 Outcome: 88-74, first in the AL Central. Lost to the Rays in the ALDS in four games. What They've Lost: SP Javier Vazquez (Traded To Braves), OF/1B ...

Thoughts on Garret Anderson

... I was afraid that the Braves would sign him early and to a much bigger contract, possibly for several seasons. The outfield is better, and at a low price. I’m just going to have to live with Joe Simpson praising his Hall-of-Fame credentials for the rest of the season. Frank Wren deserves credit for a successful offseason. While problems with potential acquisitions of Peavy, Furcal, and Griffey dominated the news coverage, the actual acquisitions of Derek Lowe, Javier Vazquez, and Kenshin Kawakami have made the Braves a playoff contender.

WASHINGTON NATIONALS/MONTREAL EXPOS - ALL TIME HOME GROWN TEAM vs. ALL TIME ACQUIRED TEAM

... pitcher who had a 16 win season for the Expos in 1980 and eventually made the All Star team. He made good money during his career, but with seeing what even mediocre pitchers make on the open market, I am sure he could grind his teeth in frustration. Or you can DO SOMETHING about it. Scott Sanderson is now an agent. And I am guessing the 10% of some of his clients beats the $800,000 he used to make as a pitcher in the bigs! JAVIER VASQUEZ Sanderson should represent Javier Vasquez! Vasquez had a few good seasons ...

... CC Sabathia to a big contract but how will that convert into wins and losses for the Yankees? I have long believed that the first year in the Bronx is taxing on any pitcher and even the biggest names have struggled in their first season. Here's how the last 6 big name pitchers have fared during their first year at the House that Ruth built.

You Remind Me of Somebody

Baseball Reference rolled out their annual "Most Similar (by age)" update sometime in the last couple weeks. Some quick comps: Javier Vazquez' top comp changed from Brad Radke to Livan Hernandez. Neither is very encouraging, considering Radke left baseball with a torn up shoulder at age 33 and Hernandez rapidly declined from above average to slop-throwing sub-replacement level vagabond after age 30. David Justice, Bobby Higginson and Tim Salmon are Carlos Quentin's top comps, which seems like a pretty good group. ...

October 2, 2008 Playoff Games Open Thread

The Sox and Rays get started today w/ Javier Vazquez going against James Shields. Vazquez has been positively awful in his last 3 starts (18 ER in 12 IP) and Guillen's been going w/ a 4 man rotation for about 10 days now. He may run those starters into the ground in his quest to bring a title back to the south side. It says something about how good Shields has become that he's the game 1 starter over Kazmir. He's less heralded than his teammate but he's been very good since the beginning of last season. And he's just 26. The Brewers and the Phils are the ...

Justin Verlander (10-15, 4.78) vs. Javier Vazquez (11-13, 4.29) UPDATE (12:30 p.m.): It's not looking very good for this first game.  According to Jason Beck, there's still a steady downpour in Chicago.  Tonight's game is still a possibility as the rain is supposed to clear up by then. Okay, maybe the third time will be the charm.  After getting rained out Friday night and all of Saturday, the Tigers will attempt yet again to play the 147th game of their season.  Shall we take bets on whether or not ...

His ERA was below average (ERA+ of 92) but he was a workhorse in an otherwise aging rotation. It was the post-season that punched his ticket out of town, including ...

Starting for the White Sox was old frenemy Jose Contreras, another in the long line of big-money free agent busts in New York who ve gone on to success elsewhere. (He gets a pass, though, since his family was trapped in Cuba most of the time he was with the Yankees. You can see how that might be a tad bit distracting. What s your excuse, Vazquez ?). Contreras pitched a solid game, allowing just one first inning run, when Johnny Damon scored on a ...

A-Rod could land on DL

As the Yanks arrived to Chi-town to prepare to square off against a couple of former pinstripers ( Jose Contreras tonight, and Javier Vasquez tomorrow), they learned the reigning AL MVP may land on the DL . Brian Cashman is quoted, "Alex is a quick healer. It's kind of like (Derek) Jeter's (left quad strain). He could come back quickly or be like Jeter and miss two series (six games). We are trying to avoid the DL. We are taking it day to day." Ed Price adds that it is too early to make a guess as to when A-Rod might return to the lineup, noting that ...

Where Are They Now: Top Prospects of ‘98, #81-90

... Javier Vazquez, RHP, Montreal Expos. I know some very smart people who looked at Vazquez’ 2001 season (particularly his gaudy peripheral numbers) and assumed that at age 24, he was on his way to even bigger and better things. It didn’t work out that way, of course, but he’s been a solid big-league starter for a decade now. Vazquez has made 32 or more starts every year except 1999 (when he had “only” 26 starts), and is 115-113 with a 4.28 ERA (105 ERA+) for his career. ...
