Colon still not read for Red Sox

Posted: Friday May 16, 2008 08:15AM ET

Even after yesterday's impressive outing for Triple-A Pawtucket, Bartolo Colon is still one more start away from a major league call-up. That means the Red Sox will look to other in-house solutions -- David Pauley and Charlie Zink are two Triple-A possibilities -- to fill the open starter's spot in the rotation Tuesday against the Royals. A decision and announcement are expected from the Sox tonight.

if they can't be bothered to edit their headlines, I can't be bothered to read their articles.

Colon needs to wait until July for the Yanks/Sox games before he comes back. Yanks can't hit **** right now, but Colon is usually a good way to get back on track

I hope he gets waived so the yankees could pick him up.......
we heed a veteran innings eater who gives up less than 5 runs a start.

the yanks don't need this guy. they've already spent enough precious time and money dealing with aging pitchers that used to be good. this guy is a fat pig. he may perform once in awhile, but he can't be counted on.

also, if Colon was "good" I beleive that he would already be on the Sox roster. They certainly need some help in the pitching department.

You are correct. Considering I created this account awhile back but never used it, I woke up this morning and saw this first. And since I have read so many people criticizing the editing, I was just putting my input in. And this is the only thread I have actually talked to you or any other person in.
