But from everything that's been written, Beane considers Milledge "front line stuff". So how is it Freddy is going to leapfrog Zito?

If they deal Zito, your right he's better thats one guy. There are more than 1 team trying to "buy" though and with him being hte one guy better than Freddy, that tells me the Sox would have almost all the leverage in the world.

 

And I'm not convinced Beane is going to deal Zito especially with the A's in a tight race and the Angels starting to make some noise. Not to mention the Angels are going to land a bat, its inevitable.

Freddy needs to throw a few 1st pitch high and tight fast balls.

 

 

Nah, I fear they'd drift out over the plate.

He's a free agent, so he's going somewhere.

 

not true. possibility, not gauranteed

really? Quote one of my homeristic posts.

I think your analysis of Garcia's value is heavily tainted by homerism. But I don't want to argue about this any more. Feel free to continue if you like.

Not if the A's re-sign him, which is in the realm of possibility

It's early, anything can happen yet, but at this particular point in time...

 

THE WHITE SOX SUCK.

 

I just had to vent.

 

Now, let's win this freakin' game!!!

Nah, I fear they'd drift out over the plate.

Or he'd plunk batter after batter only to be ejected after his 8th straight hit batsman.

It's just another example of Guillen not learning from his mistakes.

I've just given up on it. Since the start of the season I said Rob can't be anything more than a pinch hitter or a very ocassional starter to give BA a day off (especially against tough righties and no Jared Wright isn't that). Mack can get more starts at another position but he hurts us too much in the field in CF.

 

Its not Rob's fault, its our manager's for putting Mack in a position where he can't possibly succeed.

They're not re-signing him at the end of the season. No way.

Not if the A's re-sign him, which is in the realm of possibility

 

There's not a chance in hell he goes back to the A's.

It is freakin strange that after the beginning of this season, I'd feel most comfortable with Jon on the mound right now.

Freddy needs to throw a few 1st pitch high and tight fast balls.

87 mph fastballs wont scare em. Freddy needs to get the ball DOWN, and keep it down

Do you think Bruce Froemming ever has any meal money left over?

WHOOO GAS 89

BINGO DJ, pitch inside!!

Its refreshing to hear Hawk not BSing about Freddy anymore.

He hired Boras, he will not get traded and leave Oakland...The A's do that with all their FA's

WHOOO GAS 89

He reached back for something extra on that one boy howdy.

Hawk and DJ keep talking about how Garcia has lost velocity on his fastball but they have yet to say why.

I'd still take Contreras, as at least he can get a K once he has 2 strikes.

didnt think so. Dont assume

That Yankee ballboy makes me more comfortable catching the ball than Pods.

 

Probably has a better arm too.

Pods throws a flyball into home.

Crazy cannon in LF.

Hawk is really tearing into the pitching today. I mean, in Hawk's homeristic way of tearing into any part of the team. It's quite obvious that he's extremely disappointed in them.

 

And we still haven't thrown anyone out at home this year.
