If KW picked up Cain, this would have been his best offseason since becoming the GM. Unfortanatley the Giants are NOT going to let him go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 One of the many things that bother me about Floyd is you look at him on the mound and he looks like he's about to hurl, and I don't mean pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daa84 Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 i know there was some question concerning cabreras arm out there, but on that play it looked pretty strong.... i think we got used to see uribe flash his arm on every throw, and cabrera is quite the opposite...on easy plays where he has time...he just lobs it, but as evidenced on that play...when he has to use his arm he can....that said hell never have the arm uribe will, but most shortstops won't Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 QUOTE(fathom @ Mar 21, 2008 -> 03:20 PM) I really can't believe KW didn't acquire another starting pitcher this offseason. I was shocked myself. If Floyd and Danks are as good as he thinks, then they should give him a lifetime contract. If not, I hope those that give him all the credit for what goes right, and blame someone else for things that go wrong, take notice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Want2Repeat Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 I know it is just spring training, but does anyone out there have any confidence that Floyd can be decent? Every time I see him, he just fits right into his pattern (i.e., giving up long fly balls - that are usually not outs). I am very concerned about the bottom 3 of this staff.

Dick Allen Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 I was watching the WS DVD this morning. AJ's jowels have shrunk considerably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Parkman Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 I still think that Floyd can be an average pitcher, but if he's only throwing his fastball at 89-91 mph he's going to get killed in the AL. If you look at his highlight reel from last year on whitesox.com he was throwing 93-94 consistently. I hope he can get his fastball back to that range.
