    Solomon has 14 innings pitched in the Big Leagues and has been off for over a month. He should not be in consideration at all for a place on the roster.

    The guy was definitely a jerk for sure and is completely inexcusable.

    Actually, I will lean on the side of optimism and say we ought to take this guy to the cleaners.

    As far as I am concerned Garcia cannot start another game. I like him long term, but he is not going to give us a chance to win in these playoffs. I hope Greinke is ready to go...I'd even roll with Javier, he's looked great in relief.

    He can say he's good all he wants but he didn't look good. I hope next time isn't until next year.

    Yeah we cannot afford to start another game like that.

    If Greinke/Javier go game 4 your options for the game 6 starter are Garcia or Odorizzi. Urquidy maybe if it’s a must win and he pitches well tomorrow. That’s where the Astros are at. I’m not sure if the Astros want Garcia to pitch more then they just need him to.

    Like 2 grand slams in 2 innings horrible?

    I prefer experience even with poor small sample size...

    Playoffs are different too...

    Then why waste his spot on the taxi squad?

    Can he not throw on the side?

    Let's see if Urquidy can become Charlie Morton Jr...

    Think you can measure Garcia within one batter. Last game was over throwing. If he's wild you get him out of there. He's a rookie, but he has to learn how to start in the playoffs and be aggressive in the zone.

    We need to find a way to beat Boston. The World Series is for the taking

    Throwing on the side and in a Playoff game is totally different. Taxi Squad is EMERGENCY only use.
