Steady Freddy
He may not have the sexiest ERA or the demeanor on the mound that some fans consider to be a bulldog, but let's take a moment to appreciate Freddy Garcia.
With a win last night, Freddy is now 41 games above .500 in his career. 41 games! You don't do that without being an outstanding competitor. That just doesn't happen against big league hitters unless you can
If you have to have your best stuff and best control to win a the big league level, you are not going to win many games here. The good ones like Freddy also win when they don't have their best stuff, but they still get out there and grind and simply out-compete the hitters.
