Jurrjens gets rotation spot
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
It wasn’t a big formal announcement, but it appears that Jair Jurrjens has made the Braves roster and locked up a spot in the rotation. Cox was talking about different scenarios and said:
The Braves would open with Tim Hudson pitching opening night Sunday at D.C., then Glavine on Monday at Turner Field. After the Tuesday off day, Cox said either Mike Hampton or Jair Jurrjens could pitch Game 3, with the other going, obviously, the next day. He hasn’t decided whether to split up the lefties with Smoltz out of the rotation.
With Smoltz in the rotation, Cox said he would have split up Glavine and Hampton. He didn’t give specifics, but I think it would have gone Hudson, Smoltz, Glavine, Jurrjens, Hampton.
Oh, yes, without announcing Jurrjens was in the rotation, Cox did announce it by saying Jurrjens could go in the third slot, or Hampton could. You have to read between the lines, put 2 and 2 together, etc, a lot on this beat. Not that anybody expected Jurrjens wouldn’t be in the rotation, which has seemed like a done deal since that game March 5 right here in Winter Haven, when he pitched three perfect innings against the Tribe in his second Grapefruit League start.
Jurrjens had a solid spring, so this doesn’t come as a surprise. But it’s great news regardless. Best of luck to Jair this summer from Tigers land.

Interesting post. Do you just write this stuff off the top of your head?

Are the comments here real or do you just make them up? The reason I’m asking is because they seem kind of fishy. No offense
