Dusty Baker has one of his kids in his dugout. Maybe he watched that dumb movie where the kid broke his arm and suddenly threw 110.

QUOTE(TitoMB345 @ Jun 30, 2006 -> 02:30 PM) Wait, Garland hitting 96 on the gun? Thats not normal! Whatever gun they have used this year, they should return it and get a new one. Its either reading 84 the entire game or everyone is throwing near 100.

QUOTE(LowerCaseRepublican @ Jun 30, 2006 -> 02:29 PM) Hey, they're 20 games under. What else do they have going for them? Ronny Santo probably was out of his mind of that fly ball.

QUOTE(Steff @ Jun 30, 2006 -> 02:28 PM) Garland is a pot smoking, walking tampon, bastard. The thread is summarized in 3 words. LOL

Anderson with the catch on the flyout. 2 flubs down. Jones is up. Yuck.

He promptly gets behind walker. Garland must not like leads.

Another hook to Jon. That kind of reminded me of the little league world series game, when the 12 year olds are throwing those big bending pitches that dont break a lot, yet all of the kids swing like they have never hit before. Another reason people should be using flip drills more instead of spending 100 dollars at the batting cages. oh well. Lets throw strikes and not give them back the lead.

Curveballs to Garland.

This is why the NL is retarded. How many times does BA get an intentional pass in a baseball game this year.

Uribe hits a double. Time for BA to wreck one. 4-2 Big Leaguers vs AAA crap

Crede hits one off the weeds in center.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Jun 30, 2006 -> 02:16 PM) Uh, remember when Sean Marshall was terrible? He still is. Garlands meltdown in the first got him back into his rhythm. Going into the 2nd down 3-0 is different than 3-2. And we will rock him.

QUOTE(tealeafreaderii @ Jun 30, 2006 -> 02:13 PM) this is a different team with DLee and Barret in the line up... plus Piere has actually played half way decent this past week or 2. Compared to what, the KC Royals lineup. Look at our division. If he has problems with this pathetic lineup what happens when he goes back to the american league and faces hitters instead of these frauds who pretend to hit. How many teams in the AL Central does Nefi Perez/Womack/insert crappy player like him get a spot on.

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Jun 30, 2006 -> 02:10 PM) The guy has pitched a lot of Big games for us and pitched well. Right now he cant Command s*** You wonder how a man who pitched in the allstar game, who pitched on the biggest stage in baseball in the playoffs and in the world series, suddenly decides that he lost confidence in his stuff and then nibbles. The sad thing is, the stuff is there. What is missing is between his ears. If he can ever get confidence in his stuff and throw strikes he will be fine.

QUOTE(Chisoxrd5 @ Jun 30, 2006 -> 02:06 PM) Yup..at least Marshall has a legitimate offspeed pitch And was throwing strikes this inning. Lets hope that Garland decides to throw strikes. Pep talk from Cooper: When you are a pitcher that doesnt strike a lot of hitters out, and rely on a sinker you need to pitch ahead so they can pound said sinker into the ground. Hence why the 4 men that surround you are on the infield. Come on big Jon pitch ahead stay ahead. Pep Talk from ozzie: f***ING THROW STRIKES GODDAMN IT.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Jun 30, 2006 -> 02:00 PM) I thought Cub fans giving Sammy a standing O after he got caught with a corked bat was disgusting. Them giving Barret a standing today O was worse. They are drunk. I think Pods is also.

Our sinkerballer is leaving the ball up. 2-0 to Nevin. He cannot get ahead of anyone.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Jun 30, 2006 -> 01:48 PM) Coop doesnt look happy.... Coops pitching theory is throw first pitch strike one. Ozzie Guillen is going to the mound....this is a MAN THE f*** UP comment to Jon.

Well it was a strike at least. sigh Jon needs to get his control together in his next few starts. His problem is entirely on his inability to throw strike one and get ahead.

Well on the good news front this sets up the double play. Now Jon needs to throw strike one.

Jon gets strike one in, then he can use his sinker. But when he is 2-0 on every hitter, he has to throw his fastball, and his fastball no matter what the gun is saying, is not good enough to blow hitters away.

Garland is now 2-0 on walker. Start throwing strikes f***er. You are a contact pitcher, if you get behind you are going to get rocked.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Jun 30, 2006 -> 01:42 PM) Throw f***ing strikes. The only reason that he isnt pitching good this year is he gets behind, and then the hitter knows something good is coming. Throw strikes Jon

Lets thump them today, so Ronny "I sound like I gargle razor blades" Santo will be on suicide watch.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Jun 30, 2006 -> 01:40 PM) Let's not get moist yet about him. LOL I was waiting for this from you.
