Has some power, can only play first base. Good pick up for Joliet
|
|||

if he can only play first...a limited pick up and
considering three of our best hitters can play first .....makes ya wonder..... mike

well it does say they claimed him, not signed him.
so if there is a deal, maybe he's part of a trade. |

If you keep Pat, he's got good power and a pretty good 1st baseman. Also a nice guy, especially with the kids.
Not a bad pick-up |

O'Sullivan finally signed and in camp! | ||
|
bump He is a great addition, along with Cory and Juan will provide plenty of pop.

Talk about a mistake… He is going to put up huge numbers, as he has done his entire career, while playing at a much higher lever in Mexico. He is now with the
Alexandria Aces in the United league and open their season tonight. Keep an eye on this one…

good to see Pat has landed on his feet and quickly. The Aces are a better team with him! |

what could've been... | ||
|
UPDATE: After 12 games Pat O'Sullivan is tearin' it up for the Alexandria Aces. He is leading the league in all triple crown categories. AVG: .509 HR:
9 RBI: 28 Joliet had him for a STEAL, and now: he has more home runs than the entire team and half the RBI. This situation really worked out well for him.

he's one thing we're missing...power from the left side...let alone another
left handed bat...... mike |

Pat bats from the right, but has actually fared better throughout his career against right-handed pitching.
|
|||

O'Sullivan continues torrid pace | ||
|
Pat had another great weekend adding two more HRs for a total of 11 thus far. His 5 RBI also helped the Alexandria Aces win the weekend series and raise his
total runs batted in to an astonishing 34. His .450 AVG, 20 extra base hits, 22 runs scores and nearly 1.000 SLG would have put him on top of just about every
offensive category in the Northern League.

wow....some great numbers....
I wonder why I thought he batted left-handed....hmmm old age I guess....lol mike |

This what you missed in Joliet this season |

Triple Crown?

I've been informed that the northern league voided the contract for pat.
So without knowing the details, it might have not been us that just plain releasecd him......I don't know for sure. mike |
|||

Voided? | ||
|
Are you implying he did something wrong, as opposed to being the 5th veteran on the team? What's the difference between voided and released? May 12, 2008
Joliet: Released INF Patrick O'Sullivan (Veteran).

|||
|
not at all.....it sounded like something went wrong with the deal thats all......
I knew about the 5th vet thing already... mike |

It came down to Pat or Cory and Cory put up better numbers during the 3-game exhibition.
