Hatchetman Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 on murph this morning. ERA by time through the batting order. lifetime jon garland 1st time through the order = 2.2 2nd time = 4.8 3rd time = 7.7 4th time = 9.something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3E8 Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 i.e. Garland sticks to one gameplan throughout the entire game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LosMediasBlancas Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 I was gonna post this earlier, you did a better job. I have no problem with the 1st, 2nd or even the 4th time through the order. It's the 3rd time that does him in. I wonder what % of the runs he gives up come in the 5th and 6th innings. He either loses foucs or gets sloppy in the middle innings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchetman Posted September 2, 2004 Author Share Posted September 2, 2004 it COULD be a stamina issue. not necessarily, but possible... remember his first year I think it was when he was sucking it up in the rotation, they put him in relief and he did a good job.

WilliamTell Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 Maybe Garland should be a reliever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LosMediasBlancas Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 Maybe Garland should be a reliever. Well, that's the obvious conclusion, but if he can remain focused, there is no reason he can't go a solid 7 innings every time out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the input I doubt he'll ever go 7 consistantly though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LosMediasBlancas Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 Thanks for the input I doubt he'll ever go 7 consistantly though. lol, yeah there is no reason why he shouldn't be able to do it, but you're right, he probably won't.

WilliamTell Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 LMB, I wish he could go 7 innings but I don't know if he has the smarts to change his pitching during the course of the game. When he can do that, we should expect a quality start most of the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

witesoxfan Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 At what Set-Up, MR, Closer (IMO NO way) You don't just throw someone in as a closer or a setup guy and expect all will be well...it just doesn't work that way. He'd be used as a middle reliever, and then from the results, he would either be promoted, demoted, or he would remain in his role. Personally...I think the Sox should look to Montreal/wherever the hell else they will play and see if a deal couldn't be worked between the two...they've worked together before(Colon for El Duque, Biddle, and Liefer, and then Rauch and Majewski for Everett), so I don't see why it couldn't happen again. Montreal is always looking for cheap, young talent, because it is cheap...and they could use a future 3Bman and a cheap starter(Crede and Garland).

When he can do that, we should expect a quality start most of the time. I used to wonder if he had the smarts too, now I think he's just stubborn and maybe even cocky. He has that, 'no one is gonna tell me what to do, or think, or feel' attitude about him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

witesoxfan Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 Jusat about every team in baseball should jealous of their bullpen. Young and nasty. This is true. Anybody think that maybe they would do a Crede and Garland for Johnson/Wilkerson and Ayala deal, straight up(or maybe just for Wilkerson...I'm not sure)? Then Everett becomes expendable, and Wilkerson could become our fulltime RFer and potentially either become a #2 hitter or he could become like a #5 or #6. Basically, all he does is take over Valentin's role in the lineup, only he's supposed to do it better then Valentin(better average, better power, better RBI numbers, better numbers against atleast LHP, and preferably RHP too, along with being a good OB type guy).
