"Lesser" prospects scares me.

 

Agreed, especially coming from someone that knows their system so well

Garcia has big raw power, more about swing plane, approach RT @Nick_900 What about his bat though? Not a lot of power for such a big frame

You guys should really slow your roll and wait until the deadline passes...

 

But that's not how we do things!!

If ran audio is in the deal then we win IMO.

After hearing Owings, Davidson, Tallion, and Martinez kicked around I will murder something if it's just f***ing Garcia and nothing else notable

 

Garcia is way better than Owings and Davidson, IMO

Or, you know, even wait to see who we got in this deal.

I hope that means we fortify the farm a bit via Rios/Alexei/Insert Name Here.

Last year, Garcia was hitting everything to RF. This year, he started to pull the ball more. A shorter left center and CF at the Cell should help him.

No doubt. He's a monster.

Garcia called a "future all-star" by Nightengale and viewed as highly by a lot of scouts. The fact that we took him away from Detroit just sweetens it. It's a good return for Peavy.

I'm predicting Garcia, Middlebrooks, and a pitching prospect to the Sox.

Garcia is really an excellent piece. I could see us looking really good for the future by the deadline

I'm more worried about what our system would do to Garcia than Garcia himself.

Hopefully someone like Brian Johnson is included in the deal.

He may be with the big league club...

Garcia is just as highly regarded as many of those guys, not Tallion obviously but he was never really going to happen with the cheapo bucos

Ken Rosenthal ‏@Ken_Rosenthal 8s

And likely more involved. RT @jonmorosi: Source confirms A Garcia to White Sox, J Iglesias to Detroit.

Not gonna be Middlebrooks, book it.

More lottery tickets.

How long before our hitting coaches screw Garcia up

Garcia is another physical specimen who doesn't know how to f***ing hit. Why can't we, just once, get someone that understands the strike zone?

f*** you Kevin Towers!

I really hope 5 years from now Iglesias is no longer on the Tigers and Garcia is mashing as the 3 hitter for the White Sox.
