Rex Hudler Posted October 22, 2003 Share Posted October 22, 2003 So is Josh Stewart completely off the radar? Has he been recovering from whatever freaky neural/circulatory problem that shot to the chest left hm with? No one knows (publicly anyway) about Josh's condition and how he is responding. It is still up in the air whether he will ever be able to pitch again, unfortunately. Let's hope he recovers and pitches at whatever level. We can worry about him pitching well after he gets re-established as being able to go every 5th day again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rex Hudler Posted October 22, 2003 Share Posted October 22, 2003 Cotts has to show me improved control and Pacheco needs to show me that last year wasn't a fluke(since it was his 1st good year in the minors). Technically, they don't have to show you s***. They have to prove themselves to KW, the manager and Coop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone is a little testy tonight. I thought you were better then that Rex, but I guess not. You knew what I meant, but you still have to be a smartass about it, thats not cool.

One line drive, and your career may be over almost before it started. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted October 22, 2003 Share Posted October 22, 2003 Garland is no bust. He pitched some awesome games. Our starting pitching was not a problem this year except for Wright. I hope he's not a bust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pastime Posted October 22, 2003 Share Posted October 22, 2003 Garland isn't a bust, but he's very inconsistent. I've always thought of him as a younger Mike Morgan. Yeah, he'll go 14-10 one year, but then go 8-14 the next. I hope I'm wrong. I really do. I want him to succeed. I just keep waiting for him to finally "get it," where the light bulb above his head lights up, but it hasn't happened yet. I just hope that Don Cooper really gets up his ass and helps him achieve what we know he can do. If Coop can't, then we'll just have to accept Garland for what he is - a million-dollar arm with a 10-cent head. God, I hope I'm wrong. I want him to succeed so badly it makes me clench my fists. IMHO, he is our wild card next year. If he can win 15-16 games, we will bust some skulls. But if he reverts to 9-10 or 8-12, we are doomed.

YASNY Posted October 22, 2003 Share Posted October 22, 2003 One thing that people don't consider when they call Garland a bust is the fact that his first couple of years in the bigs he had Nardi Contreras as a pitching coach. That will retard almost anyone's developement. Garland has finished each of the last two season relatively strong. I think his consistency is developing as he is learning how to pitch. I still expect much better things from him in the very near future and do not consider him a bust. Danny Wright will be back next season after having time off to recover from that arm injury he had this past spring. Cotts will probably need half a season in AAA to master his command. but, that is something that could be happening as we speak (type?) down in the AFL. This is a big year for Rauch. It's make or break time for him. Honel "coming up" as a #3 is highly unlikely. He'll come up, probably as a spot starter or #5 at best. I'm sure he'll have to pitch his way up the rotation.

elrockinMT Posted October 22, 2003 Share Posted October 22, 2003 I'm at the point of calling him a bust because I'm sick and tired of all the "give him time" and "this year is JG's breakout year" BS during ST only to see JG look like Cy Young in one outing and a T-Ball stand the next 3. One thing that Jon Garland IS is inconsistent. Age not withstanding, he's been in the bigs now for 3(?)..... 4(?)..... 5(?)..... seasons and has been, at the best, a game or two over .500 number 3 or 4 pitcher. He's a number 5 AT BEST. Wait till next year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If i was a little b**** like yourself who likes to call out people over the message board I might actually be offended by that comment... And about how I cant think for myself? Who the Hell are you to tell me what I can and cannot do?!?! I dont know who Rex is, and if he said something i didnt like I would say the same to him, but all i know is that I enjoy his posts and you PROVIDE NOTHING!! So Whitesox6129303209384032 STOP OVERREACTING, being a drama queen and try to post a message that doesnt make you sound like an ASS! Thanks much!
