You're Just as Freddy as You Were Back Then
Detroit Tigers at Chicago White Sox, Sep 29, 2008 1:05 PM CDT
Freddy Garcia may be a familiar face to those around here, but his repertoire is no longer so familiar. He lost velocity in his final season on the southside, and, in lieu of admitting he had a shoulder issue, attempted to reinvent himself as a junkballer. For the most part, Garcia was largely unsuccessful, save the final month of the '06 season when he emerged with a "new" split-finger pitch. A further drop in velocity (and effectiveness) in '07 with the Phils had Garcia opt for mid-season shoulder surgery, which put him back on the free agent market this August, where the Tigers picked him up.
Garcia now has a fastball that sits at about 88-89 MPH and tops out at about 91. Unfortunately for the Sox, it appears he doesn't throw it nearly as much as when he was in black. He's got a good changeup and about 80 MPH and a slow curveball around 70. His slider and splitter also sit at about the same speed as his change, so for Sox hitters, who've never seen this version of Garcia, the key to knocking out Garcia will come down to pitch recognition. He's only started two games at the majors, and he could be fired up to face off against his old team and the guy he was traded for, so this scouting report comes with a bit of an asterisk.

Almost the size of one
back in ’76, on 1st trip to Jamaica (mon).
Pitching and defense win baseball games in September and October.
Hawk just said on the WGN news at noon
that if up to him Clayton Richard gets the ball in game 1 at Tampa if and when we get there.
That’s why he was GM of the Year.

Would that be the boner that you have for Clayton Richard, or some other "significant" part?
;)
this isn't hard. you live in a port city. and you're a slut. do the math. -larry
because it would then allow us to setup the rotation
and give guys full rest?

because javy has looked like shit recently. [there isn't going to be a problem setting up the rotation with the off days.]
and the rays don’t handle lefties as well as righties generally. not sure i’d do it – javy has had success against the rays and we are talking about replacing javy with clayton for game 1 of a playoff series (you’d also basically be declaring your intention to dump javy) – but i don’t think the thought is quite as ridiculous as some make it out to be. hawk has obviously lost confidence in javy and it wouldn’t surprise me if that wasn’t shared by certain members of the white sox clubhouse, too. he’s a mechanical mess now.
i lack the discipline to want it more.
Um...No
I hate to say it, but as I said in the other thread, I think it has to be Javy. He’d be on full rest, so maybe it’d help him out after the short rest shellackings.

Short rest vs. Richard
A quick look shows the results of this short-rest thing aren’t too bad, except Javy (MB 2-2, GF 1-1, JV 0-2)

They have better pitchers than Sonnanstine
that won’t break their rotation. Niemann comes to mind. Sonanstine has a 100 ERA+ and was not a major prospect. There’s a good chance a mid 4’s ERA is his peak, especially if he has a bad defense behind him.

Don’t they shut down sales based on the elapsed time anyway? I recall waiting out a rain delay prior to a game and then having them shut down sales in like the third inning.

one of the operative words from that post was "discretionary".
i lack the discipline to want it more.
from wikipedia
Discretionary income is income after subtracting taxes and normal expenses (such as rent or mortgage and food) to maintain a certain standard of living. It is the amount of an individual’s income available for spending after the essentials (such as food, hookers, clothing, coke and shelter) have been taken care of:
Discretionary income = Gross income – taxes – necessities – coke/hooker money

When the postseason started in 05 I said if the Sox made it to the World Series I’d quit. I quit one month after the Sox won the world series. I lasted two years without a smoke at all, but in the last year I sneak a smoke if I’m out drinking here or there – which isn’t ideal but is at least better than my previous two pack a day habit.

Great answer...
You do realize that we a mixed system market.. nowadays based on Keynesian Economics now don’t you?
The banks/financial sector
We’ve already done it with AIG.
The banks need to be recapitalized. The government has got capital. We buy equity stakes in the banks, sell them back later when everything is OK, make a nice profit.
Its like what Warren Buffet did with Goldman Sachs but on a much larger scale.
It’s much more likely to solve the crisis than the Paulson plan.

That would be fine with me
