Frankensteiner Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Apr 13, 2006 -> 02:08 PM) I'm starting to feel sorry for Pods. Not contributing in any way so far this year. He's scored a run and made a nice sliding catch today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxfest Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 (edited) QUOTE(elrockinMT @ Apr 13, 2006 -> 02:05 PM) No, I don't think you can say that in week 2 of the season. Jon Garland is probbaly my favorite Sox pitcher to watch when he is going good. The guy can be a phenomenal pitcher. But, when he is bad it stinks. But, then all bad games stink I guess. 1 decent season if you think Garland is some upper tier AL starter you are fooling yourself, he is a soft-tosser who had a career year. He is a .500 starter at best take off the blinders on JG. Edited April 13, 2006 by Soxfest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Controlled Chaos Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 Ozzie likes to get pitchers their wins. Maybe Ozzie thought it was a little more important to get Jon his first victory under his belt then the off chance they might blow this game all together. This is game 9 of a long fricken season...maybe just maybe Ozzie knows what he is doing, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowand44 Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 Ok, I'm thinking Brandon out there for the 7th, Neal/Cliff for the 8th and the Bad one for the 9th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is game 9 of a long fricken season...maybe just maybe Ozzie knows what he is doing, You mean the same way he kept Garland in forever in the first game, and a 6 run Sox lead turned into a 4 run loss? I'd hope Ozzie is confident enough in Garland's stuff that he knows he'll have plenty of more opportunities for the win in his 30+ other starts.

No one is going to pay $20 M for a below average pitcher. But, for the record, I think he'll start pitching much better and it's foolish to give up on Garland now, particularly when we have so much invested in him.
