whitesoxin' Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 QUOTE(NUKE_CLEVELAND @ Jul 8, 2006 -> 01:36 PM) I wish I had a dollar for every time I heard that exact same statement made last year. Is there anyone who didn't think that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milkman delivers Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 QUOTE(The Critic @ Jul 8, 2006 -> 01:37 PM) Here's what bugs me: Is Coop and the rest of the coaching staff unable to adjust Freddy's delivery to hold runners on a little better, or is Freddy unable to make the adjustment himself? He doesn't seem to ever change his approach with a runner on first - almost zero throws to first to hold the runner, and then it's one look over and the lonnnnnnnng leg-lift. It's laughable to watch anyone and everyone run at will on him. Â I want to know what Coop is doing, period. Why are our starters so bad this year, and getting worse? What is he doing to fix this?

Frankensteiner Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 QUOTE(Heads22 @ Jul 8, 2006 -> 01:37 PM) Who said or thinks he doesn't? Â Don't you think we need another starter. We've got 4 guys with 4+ ERAs. Do you think it's likely he'll acquire one? I sure don't... He'd have to admit a mistake on Vazquez. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 QUOTE(Greg The Bull Luzinski @ Jul 8, 2006 -> 11:35 AM) And there is no such thing as a single since everybody gets a free pass to second.

Gregory Pratt Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 QUOTE(fathom @ Jul 8, 2006 -> 01:33 PM) This s*** would have happened regardless of Mackowiak. No way that 89 mph Garcia was going to keep hitting every corner imaginable with his pitches. If this is Garcia stepping up, then he sucks worse than I thought. Â Freddy's been pitching around hits and doubles all day. If Mack had done his job on the shallow popup, we wouldn't be in this situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misplaced_Sox Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 I'm not so mad at Garcia. Â I am mad that Pods cannot even ground a ball in the outfield and Mack is the worst CF of all time.
