Balta1701 Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Mar 31, 2010 -> 05:59 PM) I saw the box score just a bit ago and wondered the same thing. What was th story with him though in todays game? It's possible he could have just been "Working on something", there was no video for us to tell. He got absolutely shelled in the 2nd. No blaming it on defense either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthsideDon48 Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 QUOTE (flavum @ Mar 31, 2010 -> 03:28 PM) Ok, I'm going to make this very clear.... Spring training statistics mean nothing for the most part. But I will say this about Freddy Garcia: 1) He hasn't exactly lit it up the last four years. 2) His velocity is way down. That cannot be disputed. 3) Dan Hudson is a solid prospect IF---again IF---Freddy is bad (forget about the record) his first 6-8 starts, and Dan Hudson is everything he was last year his first 6-8 starts, I don't think they will hesitate to pull the plug on Freddy. If they think Hudson gives them a better chance to win, Freddy will be gone. I agree. I think we should have a short leash on Freddy just like the short leashes the Sox had on Contreras and Colon last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed... but I gotta be honest, I'm a little biased towards Hudson anyway because I picked him off of free agency in my 20-team dynasty fantasy baseball league. : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iamshack Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 QUOTE (fathom @ Mar 31, 2010 -> 03:44 PM) I wonder how many innings it will take before people are calling for Hudson to replace Garcia? Freddy is throwing all junk in AZ. His s*** isn't moving as much as it will up north. He'll be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeynach Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 I also noticed Pierre hasn't gotton a hit or looked the same at the plate since he took a fastball off the Elbow in the night game against the angels two days ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
