If this...That whole service time thing is pathetic. If this team is going to be that cheap, they can forget about the playoffs. The presence of a pitcher like Garza could be the difference maker. Your right Todd, I thought he may have pitched recently, but that begs the question to whether he'll be up anyways. We don't have a fifth starter unless our plan is to keep Bonser up, in which case, is just plain stupid. We know he hasn't been effective and he doesn't have Garza's "stuff." Sorry, but I need Garza, not two homer-prone rookies.Nick M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05029328242185237902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11215059.post-1154534506896550262006-08-02T11:01:00.000-05:002006-08-02T11:01:00.000-05:00I think it has more to do with the fact that Garza...I think it has more to do with the fact that Garza is not on the 40 man roster, and they don't want to start his service time because it could effect his arbitration status somewhere down the road.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11215059.post-1154531975436989142006-08-02T10:19:00.000-05:002006-08-02T10:19:00.000-05:00Yes, Garza pitched five innings Sunday.

If Liriano has to miss more than one start, though, they need to adjust things and get Garza up.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11215059.post-1154531568033632522006-08-02T10:12:00.000-05:002006-08-02T10:12:00.000-05:00Also, Garza started 2 days ago.

They don't want to rush him. I can understand what they're donig, but I also understand the frustration in realizing that Bonser and Baker are not the answer.Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15055180012110224787noreply@blogger.com
