Healthy Egbert throwing name into mix | whitesox.com: News
Not really familiar with Egbert but if he gains some confidence, like he is right now, Ozzie is not afraid to rock any boat. So we'll see.Kansas City's two-run rally with two outs in the seventh certainly won't dampen the excellent mound showing to date coming from the 25-year-old right-hander. It's a far cry from Spring Training 2008, when an elbow injury limited Egbert to two innings and briefly turned him from an up-and-coming, top-flight prospect to a forgotten man.
"It really was frustrating," said Egbert of his injury-plagued 2008 season. "Coming into the year, I had momentum from the previous year and the Arizona Fall League, and I think I had a good opportunity.
"But I never got a chance. I just kind of hung out for a few weeks and got sent down to the Minor League camp. Now, I'm just hoping to keep throwing well."
