    I think most GM's realize who Garcia is even with a few poor outings.

    I'd sure hope not

    With Garcia it's more important he stays healthy. He's a decent pitcher who will string together a couple of good starts again. That's the point we need to trade him before he gets injured.

    I'd be looking to package Jaime and Vizcaino right now before either gets injured

    We need to track those who wanted this and have them drawn and quartered.

    yes, but I still wouldn't offer him an offer or extension. He needs to be traded.

    Would certainly think that depends on context. As in...

    "Anybody still up for promoting Newcomb and Sims and offering Jaime a QO rather than spending another $20+ million to bring back Big Sexy and Dickey to give them more time in Gwinnett?"
    Has there EVER been a statement and question a certain someone should absolutely never have made and asked publicly more than...

    Kinda pathetic to see yourself as a message board knight in shining armor. How impotent does someone have to be in real life to resort to playing hero on a message board?

    Garcia isn't a good pitcher

    4.03 ERA, 4.39 FIP

    You think that's worth $17M?

    And this is supposedly his good year!

    Going to the corner to cry now.

    Wait, what's that - I could care less what you think??? OK maybe I'm not going to the corner.

    So now you're claiming Jaime Garcia is a good pitcher?

    No GM looks at a pitcher's last couple games to determine his value, only his health. Same with Adams and a few weeks of ABs.

    Garcia and Adams have a trade value...we saw what it was when the Braves acquired them.

    League average ERA is 4.38. League average as a starter 4.53. Depending on definition of "good," Jaime has been fine this year. Not a stud, not a dud. He could still bring back someone like TD or slightly better.

    Don't you have some internet stalking to do? Need me to save you some time and give you the link to my FB or LinkedIn profiles?

    You can't waste time in the corner, you have double-wides to sell to toothless obese southerners!

    Sure, but teams also are watching how players are throwing/hitting leading up to the deadline - it certainly isn't going to help if Garcia is stringing together bad starts.
