Woods Designated for Assignment

Vidro_tiny by JoeyJoJoJuniorShabadoo on

"Mariners designated LHP Jake Woods for assignment.

"The Mariners could have just optioned him down again. Instead, it looks like he'll go on waivers, which is how Seattle got him from the Angels prior to the 2006 season. Odds are that someone will grab him. He's been quite a disappointment this year, but he's a viable living, breathing left-hander."

We'll miss your tan.
We won't miss your pitching.

by Jeff on Jul 15, 2007 7:50 PM PDT   0 recs

At least this year's pitching anyway.
He was pretty decent last year.

You have a low standard for decent
also, why is everyone changing their names to their real name? First rljaws, then KnightofKingK (he had a good reason though) and now CoachOwens.
No, sir, they're saying Boo-vasi.

You try being responsible for a broken Felix
And tell me how your able to deal with it. Also the team's gone 46-32 since the name change, Death of KofKK >>> Sinking Ship.

wait, so your name isn't John?
or maybe they just all wanna be cool like me

by Matthew on Jul 15, 2007 10:57 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

I didn't change my name to John Gilbert
You did it first, so I don't care so much, but I don't understand why Owens did it.
No, sir, they're saying Boo-vasi.

Who cares?
These pretzels....are making me thirsty!

by Goose on Jul 15, 2007 11:46 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

oh really?
his standards have dropped that low? I mean, I guess I should have seen it coming (ha!) when he said he would go for Ben Broussard, but I just didn't think it would progress so quickly. Well, time to enroll Jeff at Exeter I suppose

or failing that, to pray the gay away

by Matthew on Jul 15, 2007 11:47 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

You won't have to worry
about me changing my name.

by Gomez on Jul 16, 2007 12:57 AM PDT to parent up   0 recs

That's weird
why not just send him back to Tacoma?

by Matthew on Jul 15, 2007 8:01 PM PDT   0 recs

Because he absolutely sucks
and Tacoma can give his rotation spot to someone that might actually have a future.

by Gomez on Jul 15, 2007 8:07 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

like who?
not like we have starters anywhere in the upper minors distinguishing themselves.

by Matthew on Jul 15, 2007 8:13 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

Almounte.

Don't underestimate
the Mariners FO. This is the thing they would try to do.
The poster formerly known as CoachOwens

by Coach Owens on Jul 15, 2007 8:18 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

no its not
all the other prospects they push have been in the minors at least a little while. Almounte is really really raw  
Shop smart......Shop s-mart...... YOU GOT THAT!!!!

by Scruffy Lefty on Jul 15, 2007 8:21 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

If Almounte is in Tacoma before 2010
I will go to a game wearing nothing. There is 0% chance of that ever happening this year. A Mike Socsia, Jose Guillen love child is a million times more likely. Every pitcher in the organization/world would have to develop a nasty case of herpes first. There are enough ways of saying how unlikely this is from happening.

by Robert on Jul 15, 2007 8:24 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

which strain of herpes?
I assume you mean HSV-2, but there are many. FWIW, I'm pretty confident that you have herpes right now.

Yeah, somebody's been reading their med texts.

What the fuck?
She told me that those dots were rainbow kisses.

They have to get him into the country first too
The visa process is long and painful.  The wait for a passport alone right now is over six months due to the backlog.  I'd imagine there's a similar backlog for foreign visas.

Aumont!
You combined the names of the first and second round picks... and besides, neither has signed yet.

Rohrbaugh, Feierabend, Campillo, Lehr, Doñe
That would be the likely Rainiers rotation sans Woods.  And all of those guys have at least some upside.

by Gomez on Jul 15, 2007 8:21 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

Trade in the works maybe?
and they need to clear more roster space.
The poster formerly known as CoachOwens

by Coach Owens on Jul 15, 2007 8:07 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

maybe
Jake Woods and Jose Guillen perhaps?

Probably not.

by Matthew on Jul 15, 2007 8:13 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

Tomo Ohka
probably pushed him out of a job. Plus, they must need his roster spot, probably to reactivate Lowe.

by Trent on Jul 15, 2007 8:25 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

Didn't they already have 39
with the Davis DFA?
No, sir, they're saying Boo-vasi.

by Mariner John on Jul 15, 2007 10:15 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I don't know, I don't think he's good or anything, but I kinda grew attached to Jake over the past 2 seasons.

I will miss you and your probably not much worse than the man who's starting tomorrow.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING JOHNNY MAC?!?!

by MFAN on Jul 15, 2007 8:08 PM PDT   0 recs

Actually, come to think of it
I will miss Jake as my resident Major League equivalent. Now who do I have?

by Jeff on Jul 15, 2007 8:12 PM PDT   0 recs

On the Mariners I mean.
Feierabend sucks too bad.

by Jeff on Jul 15, 2007 8:14 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

Rohrbaugh, maybe?
The poster formerly known as CoachOwens

by Coach Owens on Jul 15, 2007 8:18 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

And Woods doesn't?
No, sir, they're saying Boo-vasi.

by Mariner John on Jul 15, 2007 10:16 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

I had a soft spot for Jake Woods
He was the hot hand for last year.  He should've replaced Joel Pineiro.  That hand has since run cold but I enjoyed it while it lasted.

Thanks for the memories, Jake...however few they were.

by ThundaPC on Jul 15, 2007 8:38 PM PDT   0 recs

Adam Jones?
Can't they bring him up now?  Maybe McLaren didn't agree with the large bullpen.

by Dylan on Jul 15, 2007 8:54 PM PDT   0 recs

He's off the 25 man for Ho-Ram
What he's off the 40 man for is an entirely different mystery.  Tomo Ohka definately makes some sense, or they could do something wonky like add Jeff Clement, though "why" is a good question.  Also an outside shot they want to add Kam Mickolio to the 40 man for later call ups.

They do have Cesar Jiminez and Mark Lowe on the 60 day, and maybe they're ready to come off.

Can we please DFA Rene Rivera, too?

I will not make jokes in my sig. I will not make jokes in my sig. I will not...

by TIF on Jul 16, 2007 2:28 AM PDT   0 recs

No crap...
Rivera has NO future with the team, so why keep him on there.  It's been bothering me all year.  

Maybe they had to sign 40-man guarantee to get him to do the Felix Flamethrower commercial.  :-P

*Call up Wladam Jonentien!!!*

by SethGrandpa on Jul 16, 2007 2:44 AM PDT to parent up   0 recs

because the sooner you boot him off
the sooner you put someone else on it and start their option clock ticking.

no use complaining about Rivera until he's blocking someone. His spot on the 40-man isn't. His job at AA is though. Promote Adam Moore.

by Matthew on Jul 16, 2007 2:55 AM PDT to parent up   0 recs

Well ya...
That's what I was trying to get at.
*Call up Wladam Jonentien!!!*

dammit Ho
for a minute I was trying to convince myself this had something to do with an AJ call up
