Talk:Tim Spooneybarger

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Spooneybarger isn't experiencing shoulder stiffness. Chorye Spoone is.

Baltimore Orioles Signed: RHP Tim Spooneybarger (hasn’t played since 2005) Placed on 7-day DL: RHP Chorye Spoone, SS Pedro Florimon, OF David Cash Reinstated from DL: 3B Bill Rowell

Spooneybarger, a Braves draft-and-follow from 1998, seemed destined for middle-relief success, but he couldn’t quite replicate his minor league results in the majors. Oh, and two Tommy John surgeries didn’t help. Spooneybarger, one of the pitchers acquired by Florida for the Braves’ taking Mike Hampton off their hands, hasn’t pitched professionally since 2005, when he spent a mere four games in the Marlins system.

UPDATE : Spoone is experiencing shoulder soreness (April 30).
