Chisoxfn Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 The OC/Garland trade is looking good for both clubs. Garland hasn't lost a game against an AL opponent since April 28th. However, the Angels are losing today despite another good start from Jon. I still hope the Sox can get more production out of Count for the rest of the season, move him for some prospects and ink Garland to a deal (Garland/Buehrle/Vaz/Danks/Floyd is a nice rotation which should give tons of innings and get tons of quality starts). It also allows the Sox to wait for a top notch pitching prospect to come around and insert into the rotation (as well as move some of the other pitching prospects for younger position players).

Cabrera, threw a wild pitch, then allowed Miggy to score on a sac fly and got the loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitesoxfan101 Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 QUOTE (knightni @ Jul 8, 2008 -> 06:00 PM) No love for Carlos Lee, I guess. He and Ozzie didn't get along, at all. Many believe Ozzie's quote, which was something to the extent of "we've got guys sliding into 2nd like their mother is playing there" was referring to Lee. In fact, some believe part of the reason we got so little for Lee (although it obviously worked out great in 2005 of course) was Ozzie basically told KW that he had to go. On the other hand, Aaron Rowand is one of the most beloved players in team history by both the fans and organization. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It had nothing to do with a broken down pitching staff, a mediocre bullpen, a terrible bench, or that Rob Mackowiak played a third of the team's games in CF.

On baseball tonight a few weeks back they were talking about clubhouse leaders and I guess the Giants were raving about how great a leader Rowand has been. One player even said that had he been on the Mets they would be in first right now. Mind you this was a few weeks ago when the Mets were looking like a lost team.

It had nothing to do with a broken down pitching staff, a mediocre bullpen, a terrible bench, or that Rob Mackowiak played a third of the team's games in CF. Well bad CF defense (when Rob played) and bad CF offense (when BA played) lost us several games during 2006 and played an important role in our demise. However, the fact we finished 10th in the AL in ERA, and also saw our all world offense regress significantly the last two months played a bigger role in our fall, as did the rise of the Twins and Tigers who also deserved credit that year.

Felix Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 (edited) Brandon McCarthy had his first rehab start tonight for the Oklahoma Redhawks against Salt Lake tonight. He had a rough first inning, but looked awesome after that. Changeup was working really well as his main pitch, and his curveball looked great at times. His fastball touched 90 a couple of times, but sat at 89 for the most part. Edited July 23, 2008 by Felix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
