Admin Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Cubs signed RHP Chad Fox to a minor league contract and invited him to spring training. There's a name we didn't think we'd be hearing again. Fox, 37, last pitched in the majors with the Cubs in 2005, but he lasted just eight innings then. Due to his chronic elbow troubles, he's only pitched 50 innings in a major league season twice (1998 and 2001). He was always very intriguing when healthy -- he's fanned 261 in 224 1/3 career innings -- but he's a long shot to be of much help to the Cubs now. ---RotoWorld.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarlinFan10 Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 That about settles it. The Cubs are going to win the World Series this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Punisher Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 That is good that he is back, but is he healthy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skully Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 I will never forget what Chad Fox did in 2003. The unsung hero of that bullpen. Yup.. same here. He was huge that year and I loved his raw emotion... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossInfoMan Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 And what ever happened to Tim Spooneybarger? Speaking of fromer Marlin relievers, saw that Matt Mantei signed with the Tigers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HelmsE Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 Great to see Fox getting another shot. I wish him the best of luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the Ice Man said pay me whatever you want to Dombrowski. He just wanted the shot. Good luck to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
