13 wins is a career high for him and he still has another start before the break.

isnt garland due for arbitration at the end of the season not end of his contract?

He still is an arbitration guy next season. He isn't a free agent until after next season I believe. If he keeps this up, his contract is going to be obscene.

Congrats on the Career high in wins. I'd love to see him get 20 this year and he's well on his way.

Thank you, Mr. Garland. You have proven to be a great pitcher this year, and are a lock for the ASG. For this, I thank you. You made the Cubs look like assholes for trading you for a marginal reliever. For this, I praise you.

I forgot about the Cubs trade. Makes it even better.

Yeah next year he's Arb. eligable. Just saying if he wins like 22 games this year. He'll make more money than he's worth in arbitration.

I thought Jon signed a 3 year contract? or was it one year?

1 year $3.4MIL, he hits Arbitration this offseason.

Nah arbitration wont be 2 bad, he will be due for a big raise but not as high as you think.

Someone's gonna get paid this offseason.

Arbitrators aren't stupid. Wins won't count as much as will his ERA. They also take his production over a two year period, and give him a comparable salary to those within one year of his arbitration status, with similar stats.

 

In other words, keep racking up the W's JG, it's not going to cost us that much more, and W's are way more fun than L's

The sad thing is that at soxfest this year, the Arow and Pods lines where just filled. So I was all upset because I was in the Jon Garland and Willie Harris line. Willie was rapping to himself and made some silly comment about stealing 60 bases. Jon was real cool and signed a ball for me. I thought it was going to be worthless, and made the comment to my wife. Great what is a Judy Garland signature worth, probably not as much as the stitching on the ball.

 

Well if he wins the Cy. It might be worth something.

 

Thanks for proving me and other fans wrong Jon Effing Garland. Nice job.

I know it's early yet but if one thing stands out about a successful 2005 White Sox team its gonna be this guy.

Willie Harris stealing 60 bases?

It makes me so proud to say I was always a Garland backer.

13 wins is a career high for him and he still has another start before the break. 

HOW BOUT THAT!!!!!

and he deserves it....we all knew that jon was capable of this and now hes showin it

So do you sign him now? Do you sign him at the end of the year. What to do!!

He'll go to arbitration and the Sox will pay whatever the arbitrator says he's worth.

Is that only for one more year? Im saying we should wrap him up a little longer than that,before it goes to arbitration.

Arbitration rules dictate that you can't get too much right? If he was at 3.4 million this year, I am pretty sure he can't get over $7 next year although I don't know exactly how it works. A guy that young would command 4 years, 50 million from the Yankees or Sawx so I would just as soon pay him in arbitration unless he'll give you a discount for signing him now (3 yr-25)

The White Sox will probably give him a new contract over the offseason and forget about arbitration. He'll get his 3 year deal at the end of the season.

I really hope we can tie up Garland long term, I want him and Buehrle pitching for the Sox for most of their careers. I know this is our season but this offseason I think has the possibility to be a very exciting and I think we might see a trade or 2 and hopefully with the loss of some payroll resign Garland long term too.
