I've noticed that Hawk is most vocal about the gun when Garcia is on the mound. To be honest, after all of the questioning about Garcia's velocity this season, I'm happy that he makes sure he tells the viewing audience what's going on.

 

It took DJ 19 minutes to comment on Garcia's finesse style of pitching.

Him and DJ have even said 87 is the hardest he's thrown now while 91 is about the hardest they've seen all year and I usually think stadium guns are relatively accurate. Plus they talk to scouts who I'm sure are checking the guns of Garcia.

 

You can tell they have been frustrated with Freddy's lack of using the FB. He has great breaking stuff, but he still has to throw his FB from time to time.

lol

Hawk starts to laugh at how Mack almost fell over catchin a routine fly to center. Luckily he caught it.

 

I almost thought that was going to be an insdie the parker (had Rob fallen over) that thing would have rolled all the way to the wall.

 

For those that don't have the game on TV, it wasn't a hard hit ball at all. Went off the end of the bat (so in Mack's defense that makes it a bit harder to get a read on, but right there was one of the reasons I don't want him in CF when we have Anderson available)

He threw a pitch to Timo that I think Jose Contreras would have hit hard. He gets out of the inning, pitching over the two defensive miscues.

He's so smooth out there.

Cards announcer say Freddy pitches slow because he is from Venezuela (which is like the Caribian) and is on Island time. :huh:

 

 

Is that racist? :huh

we need more of mack in center :P

Man, BA's suspension can't end soon enough--any off days coming up?

That's more retarded than racist. Funny how he was throwing mid 90's in Seattle.

By slow, I think he was referring to how Freddy takes his time on the mound as opposed to his velocity.

That's what happens when you're a young pitcher and your manager is Lou Pinella...Sweet Lou blew out young arms for years. Freddy's lucky that he's still able to pitch at all.

We had a lot better swings that inning, just weren't able to square anything up.

I've been to the Caribean a few times, I vastly prefer "Island Time" to the hurried lifestyle American's live!

Our next off day will be the first day BA is back :huh:

Sox hitters starting to figure him out already

When hitters don't have to worry about the fastball, that slow curve is so much easier to hit. Garcia's going to have a tough time not allowing a run this inning.

I hope Miles doesn't come back to the AL.

Yeah I should of clarified that... I was trying to quote him directly, tho

As usual, FG walking a f***ing tightrope.

Freddy is gonna get hammered if he keeps pitching like this. He is leaving a ton of breaking balls up. 1 down though, Mack makes the catch in center.

We should trade Freddy for Liriano. HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

You can tell Hawk's frustrated with Garcia, as he keeps mentioning how Cardinals hitters had hangers to hit.

He's been saying that all year with Freddy. And hes right.

 

Jesus Christ hell never throw another fastball again

Walk Pujols here? The scary thing is that Rolen is probably swinging better than Pujols is right now.

LOL Joe and Taguchi.
