my bet that he will hit

do we know anything yet?

sending him was a terrible idea.

only chance we can win is if we can get back into that pen

come on guys, we need to work this guy's pitch count

how the hell do you hang one like that after getting him to chase

maybe the best win of the year so far.

gar·land Pronunciation (gärlnd) n. 1. a. A wreath or festoon, especially one of plaited flowers or leaves, worn on the body or draped as a decoration.

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Jun 24, 2006 -> 01:18 PM) Isn't there a better way to spend $10 million? If you're satisfied with those low standards, why don't we sign someone like Mark Redman instead? it's a matter of sunk costs. It's useless to look at the $10 million and say we better get something out of it. We already committed to spending it. IT GONE! No matter if we pitch garland or not, that money ain't coming back. Garland has been mediocre. Not terrible, not below average, not good, mediocre. He'd be a 4 on other teams, he is a 5 on ours. If he gets 12-13 wins and a 5 era, that's a 7 win, 4.50 ERA performance from here on in. I'll take that. Nothing Garland is going to do for these last three months is going to shake his 2006 reputation as a shaky pitcher who had a career year. Postseason games are way too valuable to f*** around with.

QUOTE(Ndgt10 @ Jun 24, 2006 -> 01:13 PM) As long as Garland gets me 12-13 wins with a 5 ERA and a spot on the bench in the postseason, I will be a happy, happy man. well said, ndgt

if we're "beating ourselves" with poor pitching, then we didn't beat the cardinals either of the first two games, they "beat themselves" :rolly

just fox

aahahh garland back out there WTF

well, we are going to lose this game

jesus christ. pull him now

well, now it comes down to whether Ozzie wants to win this game or lose this game. If he wants to have a chance to win, Garland won't be back for the fifth.

any major league (non-NL) offense and Jon's lack of control would have us down by 5

garland gives up a leadoff walk..... :banghead

for those that don't get it yet: when you talk about sportswriters, you give them EXACTLY what they want.

Mariotti is on the score right now He is basically talking as if this is an all out war between him and the sox organization... he has ripped everyone in the organization...really pulling no punches he wants a war? give him one. Boycott the sun-times until Marriotti is removed as a columnist. This needs to happen. It's long overdue. I would personally go door to door with petitions if this could be organized effectively I want this clown run out of town by any means necessary.

You know what? The Yankees and Red Sox can have their all star game. I'll take the rest for many of our best players, thank you very much.

Pods for the all star game? um... I mean I'm a homer too, but....

for the twins to win 90 games, they would need to go 56-38 the rest of the way, which is a .600 percentage. Not happening. They have no offense whatsoever and can't beat anyone in our division.

great game!

btw guys, I wouldn't be surprised if last night's game was the start of a long losing streak.
