Signing Matt Garza would alienate every female Angel fan...

"A slumpbuster is if a team's in a slump, or if you personally are in a slump, you gotta find the fatest, gnarliest, grossest chick and you just gotta lay the wood to her. And when you do that, you're just gonna have instant success. And it could also be called jumping on a grenade for the team." Mark Grace 2003

Today, he'd probably have to hold a press conference and give a weepy public apology, although, at the time most people considered it hilarious.

Is this thread a parody?!

The case against Tanaka...

 

 

I don't know IP.... if Tanaka shoots down Ben Affleck doesn't that really make the case for the Angels to sign him?

So it's okay for the angels to sign a coke head and a drunk driver, but god help us if they sign a dude who made a few somewhat controversial non serious comments.

I'm totally fine with them signing him. But to the Angels defense they didn't know Phillips was a crack when trading for him.

[vlad27]

Can he throw a baseball and get people out ? Help the team win? If so I don't care what he says on twitter

[Scott34]

I'm more concerned about us throwing 80Mish to a league average player.

Especially one with injury concerns.

I don't want the Angels to sign Garza. Not because he's a douche, but because he's on the wrong side of 30 and is made of glass.

[Chuck]

Garza's an effing clown. He still makes the Angels a considerably better team and if he keeps his mouth shut and is signed to a deal that works for the Angels, I say go for it. Weav, Wilson and Garza are a pretty solid, steady 1-3. Richards, Santiago, Skaggs and Mulder as a 4th or 5th starter is as good as it gets.

Yup! I'm hoping this is how it shakes out. While I'd prefer Tanaka, I do like proven MLB guys with a solid repertoire of pitches and 7 straight seasons with a sub 4.00 ERA.

[Glen]

Yeah, the guy's probably and idoit.

That said, if he can win 18 games/year for the Angels, who effing cares?

I want some of what you're drinking. If we get Garza he'll be lucky to crack 12 wins, and of course he'll get destroyed every time he pitches in Arlington.

That's why I use the word IF...and I'm not sharing.

[Stradling]

BBM will you feel alienated?

Nope...I put up with the jackholes on this site don't I?

[Stradling]

Then I came only come up with three conclusions, you aren't a real female, you aren't a real fan, or the OP is wrong. Hmm, tough call.

[BaseballMom]

Ah mystery!!  

[QuinlansMinion]

And why should anyone care about any females opinion regarding anything?

See what I mean? 

[19HALO71]

Where was all this "I only care what the player does between the lines" support, when we were discussing MCab?

[laagamer]

Wow. Just wow. 

 

Screw this guy. 

[Lou]

It did make him look like a pussy for not standing up for himself. I'm sure you guys would let your wives do all the talking if some guy at a game mouthed off to you.

Sign Garza!

bbm - will you share with me?

[seenoevil]

All the pimp Angel fans will welcome him with open arms though

[Angel Oracle]

Ultimate Big Bump!

Garza has to be not long for MLB.   His stats reek since 2015 (5.00+ ERA and 1.50+ WHIP).

They are reminders of past idiocies.  Not everyone is married and has this option at a moments notice.
