Garza blames mound for latest poor showing

He's on the "slippery slope" to whinesville.

Typical Cubs player.

Or it could be his lack of talent.

I think it's total crap that anybody has Mark Grace's number. Grace played consistently and did what was asked of him every year he was with the Cubs. Then, Cubs management got the great idea that Choi would be an acceptable replacement. Bah!

Sorry, Garza - athletes adjust. The other pitchers played on a different mound, perhaps? In sports -- in every line of work, really -- whining is the worst.

LOL Looks like the Cubbies are already in mid-season form! At least for them.

Mound of what?

Halfway through spring training an 1 pitcher blames the mound in Peoria? Hey Matt, the dog once ate my homework.

A simple comment that his hamstring had tightened up would have sufficed for the media. If the slope of the mound was an issue, he could have spoken with someone on the grounds crew in private, the issue would have been resolved and noone gets thrown under the bus.

Garza is already showing that he may be a perfect fit for a clubhouse already nicely stocked with diva's.

Or might it be due to the fact that you were too busy eating donuts and cheeseburgers to actually do any running and lifting in the off-season?! = P

hey matt do you want a pacifer BABY

Mods clean the Finger, but not the spam. Lovely.

Looks as if he will fit in nicely with Zambrano and the rest of the Cubs...

Garza has no one to blame but himself!
