I remember him as the ultimate choke artist. As Hawk always said, the pitcher with the best stuff who was nevertheless always around .500ish or below for his career…regardless of where he played.

MexSoxFan#1 Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 I mentioned Javy Vazquez in the GT, someone mentioned Jerry Owens, I agree with that one...Nick Swisher wasn't here long but got a ton of flak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NWINFan Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 1 hour ago, Dick Allen said: Greg Walker going away. Bad hitters were his fault. Good hitters, nothing to do with him I am reading a book about hitting coaches, and it was written that Walker was open to new ideas and really cared about his players. It was too bad his career was cut short. He had one beautiful swing and should've been a real hitting star. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxbadger Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Javy is a good one, Gavin Floyd got a lot of hate same with Jon Garland. Pre2005 there wasnt as much hate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulie4Pres Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 56 minutes ago, MexSoxFan#1 said: He was officially renamed Adam Done This has to be the correct answer. To be fair, his 2011 season was historically bad. It was so bad that I didn't even remember that he hit 41 and 34 HR the following two seasons. All I remember is that 2011 season and how bad he was.
