Princess Dye Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 10:16 PM) I'm more worried about what our system would do to Garcia than Garcia himself. Ah yes the system that brainwashed Brian Anderson to being bad at baseball, yes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why you trade Rios now and Garcia doesn't see the minors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
royoung Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 QUOTE (Paulstar @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 10:15 PM) I'm predicting Garcia, Middlebrooks, and a pitching prospect to the Sox. Middlebrooks confirmed not in this deal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiSox59 Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 10:16 PM) I'm more worried about what our system would do to Garcia than Garcia himself. I don't see him spending much time in the "Sox system". He'll likely be the RF with the big club starting August 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 10:17 PM) Garcia is another physical specimen who doesn't know how to f***ing hit. Why can't we, just once, get someone that understands the strike zone? For reals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elrockinMT Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 We have a ton of folks following this topic. Peavy is gone. I loved that guy and his fiery competitive spirit. Not sure of who all we get in return. Hopefully more than one player Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why can't we, just once, get someone that understands the strike zone? Overreaction much? Garcia is definitely the opposite of every other OF we have drafted over the past several years. He shows a really good feel for hitting, however he likes to hit to much and needs to work on being more patient. He's no Mitchell/Hawkins type who has all the raw talent in the world, but a lack of a feel for hitting and major flaws in their swings that cause a K rate up over 30% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beautox Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Avisail Garcia has a great hit tool and is young (22) but his walk rate is bad the last thing the sox need is another f***ing free swinger, hopefully he develops like Carlos Gomez minus the speed and defense.

Knackattack Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 REALLY hope this gives them the flexibility to add cash in other deals IE Rios and Alexei. That would make it worth it along with Garcia who looks legit. I approve of this trade after consideration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
