Felix

QUOTE(knightni @ May 18, 2006 -> 02:51 AM) He seems quicker than Mack. He plays solid LF. I bet he'd be as good as Mack if they tried him out. solid LF? Who have you been watching? QUOTE(YASNY @ May 18, 2006 -> 02:40 AM) Because if BA doesn't get his average up, we'll keep seeing threads like this one: http://www.soxtalk.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=49995 worst. thread. evar.

QUOTE(greg775 @ May 17, 2006 -> 11:15 PM) You don't start worrying in May is all I'm saying. He's 3-2. He's not an Elarton-like 0-5. Record doesn't indicate how well a pitcher is doing.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ May 17, 2006 -> 10:14 PM) That I agree with. However, I dont see the point on just ragging on Garland, especially after a game like this. He was our 18 game winner last year, and its amazing how quickly people have turned on him. I wasn't ragging on Garland.. I was "ragging on" something that was said about him that didn't make sense.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ May 17, 2006 -> 10:11 PM) Your right, he blows. Tonight was nothing to build on, and I expect nothing short of 8 ER next outing. Garland sucks. I do agree that he sucks (I know, you aren't being serious), but thats not what I was saying. If you are saying something about consistancy, doesn't saying "besides " sort of go against the point of saying anything about consistancy in the first place?

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ May 17, 2006 -> 10:08 PM) Well I was close, but you get the point anyway. But at least lately, besides the Twins game, his consistency has been much better than earlier on in the season. Let's just hope he can build on tonight's game. Doesn't saying "besides the Twin game" sort of destroy any solid consistancy?

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ May 17, 2006 -> 10:04 PM) So he's been hot and cold. 4 awful starts, 4 sold starts? Look at the teams he's played, it makes those 4 awful starts much worse.

QUOTE(greg775 @ May 17, 2006 -> 09:59 PM) Jenks has been phenomenal of late. All star berth? No? He has a 7.11 ERA in May (not including tonight's inning of work though)

QUOTE(jphat007 @ May 17, 2006 -> 09:32 PM) What was AJ's single year best? 2003, .312/.360/.464 11 HR, 74 RBI

QUOTE(TitoMB345 @ May 17, 2006 -> 09:30 PM) What was D. Lee's career average? Like .290 right? SOMEONE has to have a career year, why not for us, why not this year? Because he won't. Be realistic here, AJ has never hit .340 in any level of professional baseball, why would he now?

QUOTE(TitoMB345 @ May 17, 2006 -> 09:28 PM) Why not? Because he's not a .340 hitter. His average will probably fall to about .300 if he continues to swing for average and not power. If he decides to start swinging for the fences, it will drop further.

QUOTE(TitoMB345 @ May 17, 2006 -> 09:25 PM) I agree. I'll take a .340 hitter with 3-5 homers over a .250 hitter with 18 homers. GO AJP! He won't hit .340 throughout the season.

They need to stop stealing.

Gomes thought there were 3 outs.. lol

QUOTE(Jimbo @ May 17, 2006 -> 08:11 PM) ill trade garland for shields and another prospect. You'd get laughed at for that offer.

QUOTE(Greg Hibbard @ May 17, 2006 -> 08:09 PM) I said it once, I'll say it again....last year was a great year for JG, but a lot of it was sort of fluky. His ERA and WHIP this year will be lower than they are now eventually, but they will be more along the lines of his career numbers, NOT what we saw last year. I said it all offseason, and I'll continue to say it He's not a great pitcher. He's average. Lets not pretend he's something else.

Jon Garland. Great, or greatest?

Garland's starting? I don't know if I can deal with losing 2 games to TB.

QUOTE(WilliamTell @ May 17, 2006 -> 02:49 AM) I figured he'd be gone for a while, I just didn't know if there were any updates on him. From Scott Reifert on Monday:

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ May 16, 2006 -> 10:25 PM) Mr. Cheney? Yeah we could use a hand.

QUOTE(fathom @ May 16, 2006 -> 09:36 PM) He's not this year's Griffey Jr., as I don't think the Twins would trade him to us. Hunter is still a better defender than Anderson, and he's a much better hitter. Hunter is extremely overrated with the bat. Look at the numbers. He's a decent power source (mid-20's for HR), but past that, he's nothing special.

QUOTE(fathom @ May 16, 2006 -> 09:25 PM) Real quick...I didn't post in the other thread, but if Ozzie could get Hunter to play CF, I'd do it in a second. Rowand ~ Hunter They replaced Rowand with Anderson, and Rowand was a huge fan favorite & organizational favorite. Doesn't that speak wonders for what the organization think of Anderson? Why would they replace him mid-season? Also, Ozzie wouldn't make the trade, Kenny would

QUOTE(SleepyWhiteSox @ May 16, 2006 -> 09:16 PM) Literally just walked in from practice and saw the score...Anyone mind giving me a quick recap? How'd McCarthy look? And the boxscore doesn't look so good for either of our pitchers so far. I tried asking, no answer

How did BMac look? I can see the box score, but I'm certain that doesn't tell the whole picture. And apparently, Logan sucks.
