May 18, 200521 yr Hey Guys, I just registered on this site and I am beginning to really like the layout of this site. I have a question. Does anybody have any updates on Tim Spooneybarger's condition because we could use him in our bullpen right now? Last thing I heard was that he was placed on the 60-day disabled list as of about one month ago. Thanks.
May 18, 200521 yr He pitched for Jupiter of the Florida State League the other night. 1 inning -- read more about it here and here specifically this post has the best description. Welcome to the site
May 18, 200521 yr I believe I read that he was scheduled to pitch again either last night or tonight. The last thing the Marlins would want to do is rush the guy back before he's ready to pitch competitively at the major league level on a regular (read 3-4 times a week) basis. Better he rebuilds his arm strength, velocity and durability in the minors and be ready to fully contribute in July or even August than to rush him back and have him re-injure himself or be less than effective.
