That's OK Jon, we don't need you to get ahead of batters to win. I'm sure the at-bats will work themselves out.

Us or Garland? Because if its Garland that he needs to get to the back on the line, its getting long.....

Good point, lol.

 

Garland getting booed now. 3-0 A's.

Boy o boy Garland blows

Two games back.

I can't wait for the "jumping off the ledge" posts if we lose tonight, and the Tigers win.

f*** YOU JON GARLAND

God damnit Jon...

You wait all year for those don't you?

Good point, lol.

Thankfully, we signed him to a 3 year deal!! There's not a f***ing doubt in my mind that McCarthy would have a better season as a starter than Garland this year.

Bring out the choke avatars...

I think its going to be Montero time tonight...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

:puke

He's already warming up.

 

Here's a pretty stat...67 pitches for Garland through 3 innings.

I can now see why Garland was so quick to jump on the Sox contract offer even though he only had one more year until free agency.

That money sure would have looked nice going towards a Buehrle extension, and trading Garland for some stud prospects/relievers.

I'm not bailing on Garland totally yet, but if he has a 6+ era a month from now, it will be time to consider moving him to the pen and putting Mac into the rotation.

 

Yes, I'm serious.

Bring out the choke avatars...

Naw, you got it backwards. Chokes come much later. Tonight Judy'll be out in force.

Go Mavs!

detrot and kc is over, 5-0 in the 4th

If his ERA is at that come that time of the year, trade bait and hope he waves his no trade claus.

They'll try to get Garland through at least 2 more innings so they don't burn the pen in the first game of this series. Assuming he doesn't let up any more runs.

Agreed. Pretty sad. Well, I guess the A's had sinkerballer Saarloos in their bullpen.

Don't tell me what to do.

Don't tell me what to do.

 

I hope and assume that even you realize it's way too early to be talking about a choke.

Go Mavs!

What's the score in San Antone?

There's no reason to not keep him in this game. 3 runs, against Zito, is pretty tough to overcome for our hitters. It's not like Montero would come in and hold them scoreless for 4 innings.
