Matt Garza

[ten ocho recon scout]

Hope he enjoyed his vacation.

[Angel Oracle]

Anyone still sad we didn't sign him?

[Wallerrrr]

devastated 

[JAHV76]

What is lit up like a Christmas tree Alex?

[Season Over]

To be fair, the Brewers played like complete crap defensively.

 

But yeah he looked bad. 

[WallyWorld]

wait, are we mad at him for not taking the Angels' offer or glad he didn't accept?

[ukyah]

i don't hate the guy, but it's not going to be any skin off my back if he sucks hard.

[ten ocho recon scout]

^yeah, they did. To be fsir it looked like some of the games when we sh*t the bed. And I inagine garza, when the spring training game is already lost anyway, probablywasnt using his best stuff after that.

Was still funny though.

[wopphil]

Isn't it still March? 

[Guest]

He got his ass kicked today, and I'm very glad he didn't steal $50M from the Angels. I hope the pro-Garza guys here chime in.

are you a detective?

i'm all for him sucking, but keep in mind it's march 12th.

True, but I think it's reasonable to be concerned when a SP gives up 10ER spring training or otherwise. Either way, I'm glad he sucks too.

[Brent Maguire]

Garza looked terrible today. I didn't want to sign him so I'm happy about the results today. 

 

His ERA is around 20 right now. It's just ST but that's not a good sign for a 50 million dollar investment.

Well to be fair Weaver gave up 10 ER against the A's last ST.

It is just ST.

Garza hasn't been all that sharp since he was traded to the Rangers, and this performance gives me the impression that he's continuing to decline. I guess we'll see, I normally don't put much stock into ST either.

[Homebrewer]

Looks like there is a good chance Santiago has a much better year than Garza.

How good would that look?

[Docwaukee]

I felt like the Garza deal was fair.  I wasn't a huge fan and I'm still not, but I think he has a decent chance of being worth the money relative to the rest of the market.  He'd probably have helped the Halos some.  Maybe not a ton. 

 

Also, he's a douche so him not being a halo makes him that much easier to rip on.  I hope he get's hammered. 

[Brent Maguire]

Yup. 

 

Just have to remember that Blanton was our best starter last Spring and ended up being the worst starter in baseball during the regular season. 

[Cdaniel]

I was one of the guys that wanted the Angels to sign Garza. Based off ST I'm really glad they didn't.

[ukyah]

everyone seems to be in relative agreement that the continuing garza suckitude, for whatever reason, would be just fine. so say we all.

Kazmir gave up 13 ER one time with us, then left and became a good pitcher with the Indians.

Three years later. I guess we should have kept him and ran him out there every fifth day until he magically regained his fastball and became an effective pitcher again.
