In o6 he pitched 18 innings, allowed 12 hits and had an era of 3.46 . Last year he pitched 11 innings. It is hard to say he gets shelled every time he comes up. He was very good in AAA in 06. Last year he was not quite as good but still way above average. Very few knuckleballers have MLB experience at 22 like he did. He may not be the next Clemens but he has a shot to be the next Wakefield which would make him easily the WS 3rd best starter.

Gary Scott was the greatest AAA player of all time for the Cubs. Along with Angel Guzman.

Guzman has always been hurt. There is no evidence to suggest that Gary Scott was ever a good baseball player. He was a poor hitter at any league above AA. He was not a good AAA hetter with no power or patience (not many walks). Only a blind person or the Cubs thought he was any good...ever.

On a side Cubs note, there is talk of them playing half a season at the Cell if they remodel Wriggles...Can't wait to see the preppies at 35th and the Dan Ryan looking for The Cubby Bear South
