June 8, 201114 yr Anyone see chuck garfien's post-game interview with Humber. He basically laughed in Humber's face about how he was released so many times. (Haha, sure you were "DFA'd" hahahaa." Humber: dead faced)

(Haha, sure you were "DFA'd" hahahaa." Humber: dead faced) There's something about Garfein's face, his facial expressions, his attitude, that has always irritated me.
June 8, 201114 yr Speaking of post-game, can anyone tell what this noise is that makes Humber start to crack up during the interview? Go to the link that says "Humber thankful..." and at around 2:09 you start to hear something that starts him cracking up. Humber video

June 8, 201114 yr Phil Humber has been one of the bigger surprises in the league this year. We would not be where we are without him. And I hope there's not even any thoughts of him still possibly being relegated to the bullpen when (if?) Peavy comes back.
June 8, 201114 yr One of the most awesome things about Phil Humber is that he was once designated for assignment by the Twins. How much time does he have with the Sox? When will it be time to start talking contract?
June 8, 201114 yr QUOTE (Chet Kincaid @ Jun 8, 2011 -> 01:25 PM) How much time does he have with the Sox? When will it be time to start talking contract? We have him under control for a while. Because of that, we wont start talking contract for some time, or at least we shouldn't.
June 8, 201114 yr QUOTE (Flash Tizzle @ Jun 8, 2011 -> 05:10 PM) There's something about Garfein's face, his facial expressions, his attitude, that has always irritated me. definitely. I think he thinks he's better than his job suggests.

June 8, 201114 yr QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jun 8, 2011 -> 01:27 PM) His curve was nasty last night. ironically, it was the curve that got him into trouble in the 7th inning (i use the term trouble loosely, as he only gave up baserunners but didn't allow them to score)
June 8, 201114 yr Author I don't expect Humber to have turned his career around entirely so that he'll pitch at this level for years, but I made this thread because last night I finally started to feel that he's going to continue this all season. I'm expecting a Loaiza-like run: a great year followed by a few pretty decent ones. I'm very happy for the guy, as you just know he's enjoying every second of this. Considering he finishes out the year without falling off of some huge cliff, do you think he'd be regarded as the comeback player of the year? I understand that he was never really there in the first place, so that's why I wonder.
June 8, 201114 yr 2.87 ERA I know it is still early but still. also, .98 WHIP Edited June 8, 201114 yr by IowanSoxFan
