July 1, 200421 yr Good debut for Freddy. 9 K's in 6 innings. Bulpen comes in and shuts them down except for Shingos HR but overall great game. 1ST PLACE BABY!
July 1, 200421 yr Nice job Freddy! I bet after the game, Freddy was probably thinking, "Sweet, I can give up five runs and still get the W!"
July 1, 200421 yr Anybody noticed that we've torched 4 quality rh pitchers in a row? Zambrano, Maddux, Silva, and Radke. I love our approach. Like Hawk was saying. Up the middle and going the other way. We keep that approach we're gonna be scary dangerous. The hr's r gonna come regardless.
July 1, 200421 yr Big game tomorrow. Last game of a 3-game set against the Twins on the road, with the Cubs series coming up. We win this, we could have all kinds of momentum heading into Wrigley...would feel kind of like going to NY and then Cleveland for 7 games all together and coming out 7-0. With Garland pitching? I'm nervous as hell. Every time we've needed him to step it up, it has not necessarily been deer in the headlights, but more or less he just pitches like s***. We need him to pitch well...6 or 7 strong innings would do.
July 1, 200421 yr 6 or 7 strong innings would do. If he does that, what are odds Ozzie keeps him in for the 8th and even possibly the 9th?
July 1, 200421 yr NONE! If we can turn these games into 6 inning games with Pollite 7, Marte 8, and Shingo 9, it would take LOADS of pressure off the starters. Only 6 good innings would be required. Garland usually does solid the first 6 and then chokes in the 7th.
