#340 – Jack Egbert


Name: Jack Egbert

Rank: 340

Position: P

Year With White Sox: 2009

Jack Egbert was selected by the White Sox in the 13th round of the 2004 draft.  He earned a promotion to big league club in late April 2009, replacing the ineffective Mike MacDougal in the bullpen.  Unfortunately, he was no better, and 4 days later, he was sent back down to Charlotte, replaced by Lance Broadway.

In late September of that year, Egbert was placed on waivers and was selected by the Mets, thus ending his White Sox career.

Egbert’s numbers in a White Sox uniform were:

#355 – Lance Broadway

Name: Lance Broadway

Rank: 355

Position: P

Years With White Sox: 2007-2009

Lance Broadway was the White Sox first round pick in the 2005 draft and worked his way to the big leagues 2 years later.  A starter by trade, Broadway worked mostly out of the bullpen for the Sox, making only 2 starts in his time on the south side.  When the opportunity presented itself early in the 2009 season to make an upgrade at backup catcher, Broadway was (fittingly) traded to the New York Mets for Ramon Castro.

Broadway’s numbers in a White Sox uniform, both for games I attended and overall, were: Continue reading →

NL East
Washington Nationals 47 32 84 78

The Nationals were expected to improve this year, but they appear to have taken a giant leap forward.

New York Mets 44 38 75 87 One of the surprises of the first half, the Mets were thought to be also-rans following their off-season ownership troubles.
Atlanta Braves 42 39 82 80 The Braves have kept a steady ship following last season’s late collapse.
Miami Marlins 39 42 89 73 The Fish surrounded a great May with struggles in April and June.
Philadelphia Phillies 37 46 94 68 Injuries to Ryan Howard, Chase Utley, and Roy Halladay have kept the Phillies out of their usual spot in the pennant chase.
NL Central
Pittsburgh Pirates 45 36 70 92 Last year the Pirates flirted with respectability for the first time since 1992 before faltering after one bad call cost them a game.  This year, they may be for real.
Cincinnati Reds 44 37 89 73 The Reds are right at their expected pace.
St. Louis Cardinals 43 39 87 75 The defending champions have dealt with the loss of Albert Pujols and Chris Carpenter better than anyone expected them to.
Milwaukee Brewers 38 43 84 78 After finally winning the NL Central last year, the Brewers have struggled after losing Prince Fielder.
Houston Astros 32 50 57 105 The rebuilding Astros have been a little better than expected in their final season in the National League.
Chicago Cubs 31 50 66 96 The rebuilding Cubs have been a little worse than expected in Theo Epstein’s first year as the savior of the franchise.
NL West
Los Angeles Dodgers 46 37 83 79 The Dodgers had a surprising first half, sparked on by their ownership change.
San Francisco Giants 45 37 90 72 The Giants have had an eventful first half, with a perfect game and 4 straight shutouts.
Arizona Diamondbacks 39 42 88 74 The DBacks struggled in the first half, and that was before losing Daniel Hudson for the season.
San Diego Padres 33 50 70 92 The Padres have been a little worse than expected in the first half.
Colorado Rockies 31 50 79 83 The Rockies have struggled in the first half and have turned to a 4 man rotation to try and turn things around.

All Time Records (through 2010)

Now that the 2010 season has come to an end, let’s take a look at team’s overall records in games I have personally attended over my entire life.  Every game I can remember or have tracked down is included, even the postseason.  Teams that move (Expos/Nationals), change “city” names (California/Anaheim/Los Angeles Angels) or change team names (Devil Rays/Rays) are split out per incarnation.
