greg775 Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 If Brian Anderson could hit .230 he'd be in the game and we'd be in the lead. He can't and we're losing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeoriaSoxFan Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 Yeah I guess his 5.83 era and the fact he is giving hr's up every start is not his fault either. :banghead 4 runs off of HRS tonight. 19 given up on the season. More HRs than BBs. That doesn't even make sense. I say leave Garland in the rest of the game. See if he can figure his stuff out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamrock4Life Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 QUOTE(Jeckle2000 @ Jun 8, 2006 -> 08:48 PM) This crap is getting old... Jon pitches one of his best games all year... the defense s***s the bed. None of those balls were even hit freaken remotely hard except for the HR and even that wasn't a bad pitch... If we have a semi competant CF we don't even give up one run that inning... Â good thing to know i have a couple people that agree with me.

Ndgt10 Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 Don't misunderstand it for trolling, I'm not like that. I'm just stating my opinion on what I think could happen.

SoxHawk1980 Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 Blaming Garland is silly. I know he's the whipping boy, but this loss goes 100 percent on Mackowiak and Cora, they have alone caused a 6 run swing towards Detroit. Are you kidding me? Garland faced a little adversity and then completely s*** himself. A mediocre pitcher manages to weather that storm and minimize the damage. Garland folded like a house of cards.

Balta1701 Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 8, 2006 -> 06:51 PM) That's what I'm saying....at least they have other options to possibly fill in. We have nothing. We have nothing to fill in exactly 1 spot. Almost every other position we have plenty of backup options. We just have no CF. And hell, they're spending over 2x as much as us, and they still have some pretty major holes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 QUOTE(JimH @ Jun 9, 2006 -> 01:52 AM) No one's saying it isn't a problem. Â What jphat007 is saying, and you know this full well, is that it's not like KW can just snap his fingers and get a new CF. You know as well as everyone else he is one of the most aggressive GM's out there and you also know he is out looking, probably as we speak. Â Teams have to match up trade wise, the timing has to be right, and early June is almost always a non trading time of the season. Â Hopefully he can pull something off, and soon. My sense is Anderson gets shipped out after the game. Â See, that's a perfect explanation. I couldn't agree more. I just think KW's had about a month of seeing this terrible production, and even if he can't make a huge transaction, a little band-aid would do this team well.

It's the way it always will be for whatever reason. We should have 2 threads each game he pitches. One game thread should just be the "Garland sucks" thread.

Guest JimH Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 So what will it take to get the likes of:Â Corey Patterson + Latroy Hawkins ? or Brady Clark + Matt Wise? Â Patterson is going nowhere and plus he hits lefthanded and they have preference for a righthanded hitter. Â Clark is definitely an option and although I don't know for sure, I'm quite certain they have had conversations with the Brewers. The two GM's have a great relationship and they match up pretty well. Brewers want young starter prospects and we have them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A mediocre pitcher manages to weather that storm and minimize the damage. Garland folded like a house of cards. I agree. If I had to rank my top reasons for why we are losing right now, I'd say: Â 1. Garland's lapses 2. Lack of timely hitting and for that matter hitting period. 3. Rob M. brain cramps 4. Konerko brain cramp. 5. Joey Cora and/or JD not being Flash Gordon.

"For whatever reason"??? I have a reason for you: his career. Look at the various years of his career. He has a bunch of mediocre years, ONE GOOD YEAR and then this crappy year. How does one good year make him a good pitcher? On the contrary, he has proven that he is at best a mediocre pitcher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
