Not much to rationalize about that start today. That was flat out bad.

Got a good feeling about this one. he's due for a good one.

Good call Gordo.

[ADZ23]

Pitching coach D.Wallace expected to announce his retirement.

Yes.

After he got through the 5th inning on only 9 pitches, I was hoping that he would be able get one more scoreless frame for a 6-inning, 3-run outing, but it wasn't to be.

3 bad games for him so far this season.

I'm not holding out much hope he'll be good this month. He's a traditional slow starter, so I'm expecting him to turn things around by May.

Yea this might end up being money well spent. I know it's early, but this is getting a little ridiculous.

How many starts like this before we can stop calling the response reactionary? Garza was a bad risk?

He started ST late and he is a slow starter. I'm expecting a turn around from him in early/mid May.

Gordo....you definitely shouldn't gamble.

Right. I wonder if the velocity was as low to start the year last year. The splitter doesn't have any bite to it either. Lawrie really jumped on one.

I'm going to give Gordo a greenie for his effort on this one.

Yesterday, SCOTT made the same call about Bud Norris, and he was right on.

I don't think anyone (except for Scott) thought that Norris would pitch 7 shutout innings last night. Hell, I'm not even sure if NORRIS HIMSELF thought that he would toss 7 shutout innings last night.

These are really just stabs in the dark, especially this early in the season ...... and, they're all good.

It was a lucky guess, but I did think he looked pretty good in the spring. Injured last year while we had him. Healthy now. Norris isn't Cy Young but I'm glad to have him.

[Roll Tide]

Wow another gem by Jiminez. So Is this guy just a warm weather pitcher? I can't imagine how this guy is a mid 3 era pitcher the way he has looked.
