WHERE have you been? After three years, it gets old. We've all advocated getting rid of Uggla. What more is there to say? Uggla is signed to a huge contract. What excuse do the Braves have to play Garcia?

That the best option needs to be on an innings limit.

That's an excuse to put Wood in the bullpen. Shouldn't have a thing to do with Garcia.

Then its preference between Hale and Garcia. I think Hale could use a little more time in AAA before we is relied on to be a starter at the major league level.

I have no doubt Hale would perform better than Garcia for a month or two.
 
I don't get all the hate on this board for Freddy Garcia, the Man has done nothing since signing with the Braves but pitch well and continues to pitch well and you guys is keep bitching and moaning about him. The Braves have bigger problems than worrying about a proven MLB pitcher in Freddy Garcia.

I love Freddy Garcia. I even spell his name correctly. But I don't want him making more than a spot start or two. I think we have better options.

Garcia can start for 2 months with a sub 2 ERA and get criticized on here

Anything can happen. But you have to make decisions based upon probabilities. And chances are Hale, Floyd and Wood would pitch better as starters than Garcia. So if you have better alternatives why use him as a starter.

That just isn't true. The plunking guy made four starts for us. FOUR. And you guys act like he is more that pitcher than the guy who made ten terrible starts for Baltimore last year or the guy who made seventeen equally bad starts for the Yankees the year before.

I guess you guys didn't see him pitch late last year with the Braves and go toe-to-toe in an elimination game against Kershaw, but I guess we aren't letting facts stand in the way of good ole fashioned hate.
