Wow, Brian Anderson would NOT have caught that. The ball was hit hard, and Mackowiak had no chance at it.

7-1 now. Just a meatball served up by Logan there.

QUOTE(ChWRoCk2 @ Apr 4, 2006 -> 07:26 PM) true i would have never started garcia game two, i would have had him go the first road game against kansas city It doesn't really matter. Garcia was better vs Cleveland last year than he was KC. Also, people don't know Ozzie if they think he wasn't going to have Garcia as one of his top 3 pitchers.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Apr 4, 2006 -> 07:25 PM) I don't think Freddy is gonna win a game this year when I really think about it. He'll get his fair share of wins, but it's disturbing to see such a puss arm today. No reason to jump off any bridges Jphat

Looks like we found our #5 starter this year. All along, I've thought it would be Contreras, Buehrle, Vazquez, Garland, Garcia.

QUOTE(JimH @ Apr 4, 2006 -> 07:21 PM) Right, dirt to ankles. The pitch was still down in the grand scheme of things. That pitch is right in Thome's wheelhouse though. It wasn't a terrible pitch.

QUOTE(JimH @ Apr 4, 2006 -> 07:19 PM) DJ is really harping on Garcia throwing soft. That tells me something, and what it tells me is something is wrong. Absolutely. I was going to point out that DJ has been very critical of Garcia's style today. I love to hear that type of analysis from DJ, and as you, me, and other observers know, the announcing crew usually speaks for the organization.

Garcia better get some zip on his pitches, or he's going to be lucky to have an ERA below 5 this season.

Garcia is totally slowing up his motion on his change-up.

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Apr 4, 2006 -> 07:16 PM) i was thinking the same thing. That last ab by Thome is exactly how you got to approach this guy....Make him get it up! Cabrera was just awful though when he came in. Westbrook is teasing these hitters, and the ball is dipping at the end. I've always liked W'brook, and I'm shocked we went 4-0 vs him last year.

QUOTE(RME JICO @ Apr 4, 2006 -> 07:14 PM) At least they are working the count a little better. Not really. They've been swinging over a ton of pitches out of the zone.

Watching this game, it really makes me miss Carl Everett.

If the one on Sunday was 431 ft, that was about 500 ft.

QUOTE(Aderal @ Apr 4, 2006 -> 07:08 PM) Im sorry did I offend your culture? Wow, you're a quality poster! How are they acting gay? By running over the catcher? I think it's actually sweet justice for Boone from what AJP did to him last year.

QUOTE(ChWRoCk2 @ Apr 4, 2006 -> 07:06 PM) this is the game i didnt want to lose I'm not going to lose sleep over losing the 2nd game of the season. I'm as emotional as it gets....and I've even realized that we're not going to go 162-0.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Apr 4, 2006 -> 07:06 PM) Finding the holes.

QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Apr 4, 2006 -> 07:04 PM) Man, Podsednik's arm is so weak. Actually, it was a great throw for him. If he wasn't playing 20 feet from the warning track, he could have thrown the guy out.

Garcia pitches like he's 45 years old now.

QUOTE(Aderal @ Apr 4, 2006 -> 07:05 PM) the indians are being gay now Good post

QUOTE(Jimbo's Drinker @ Apr 4, 2006 -> 07:02 PM) I think we are in trouble..team looks stuck in mud 87 mph high fastballs and rolling sliders are going to get hard. I wish our hitters could face Garcia with the way he's throwing.

QUOTE(RME JICO @ Apr 4, 2006 -> 06:58 PM) I just hope we can get to their bullpen as early as possible. Westbrook can usually go as many innings as he needs.

QUOTE(Jimbo's Drinker @ Apr 4, 2006 -> 06:54 PM) Cintron take horrid swings, gone Would have rather seen Iguchi play 2nd base, as he's seen Westbrook's sinker a lot. If our hitters don't make W'brook get the ball up, we're not going to score much.

Mr. Cub Killer with a bad approach, but good results.

QUOTE(Felix @ Apr 4, 2006 -> 06:43 PM) I just got back from school.. goddamn Hafner.. He gawn! Hafner? Were you drinking at school?

Who takes C.C.'s spot in the rotation?
