We would not be b****ing about Garland if the Sox were actually scoring some runs.

Wow, I really am nostradamus.

Freaky.

 

Any more predictions?

Come on Jon, do not walk the guy hitting .108 in May.

jeez JG cant even put zeros on the board even when he has great stuff. :headshake

I wonder where all those people are who claimed Garland would eventually settle down.

 

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.

Josh Towers has a career 4.5 ERA, how do you feel about him?

about the way soxtalk collectively feels about garlands 4.5 for this game so far.......not good

I dont even know who he is, so I can't say anything about him without watching him pitch.

 

But a career 4.5 ERA is not terrible in my book.

 

Terrible/pathetic is Jose Lima's 5.24 ERA over 233 career starts.

Gotta give credit to the Tampa guys on their homer though. They're not trying to pull everything at the plate right now.

Heh. He is offically on notice if you ask me.

None of them good.

Rocket base hit.

I got ripped in the offseason for saying he had a fluke year

the essence of corspeball

All I can say is that hopefully a west coast team wants Garland after this season if he continues to pitch like this.

 

Publicly admitting that you don't have it, come on Garland, MAN THE f*** UP.

ill trade garland for shields and another prospect.

I'm just thankful that Garland very likely had his career year in a season that led to a World Series championship.

I said it all offseason, and I'll continue to say it :P

He's not a great pitcher. He's average. Lets not pretend he's something else.

Good maybe we'll try to get some hits, because a bunch of our outs/hits have been up the middle or the other way. We must be taking the good approach!

NVM. Looked harder hit.

I'd love Shields but fear he will be done in a few years because IMO he's been overworked.

yuck, cmon garland

You'd get laughed at for that offer.

So is El Duque going to come in and salvage the finale in TB like he did last year?
