I never said that Garza was the better talent, or the better pitcher, or that he would accomplish more in his career, but right now I'd still have serious reservations about giving up the farm for a guy like Greinke. He isn't yet at the point in his career where he has completely put his past mental issues behind him either. And why did he resist a trade to a major market team? Just look at how the entire trade process has transpired, and review his 2010 game log, and then look at his career inconsistency and you will see my point a bit more.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Yeah, I question whether he could have handle the pressure here. If he came to the Cubs I'd definitely see him at one point, like in August or something, head out to the mound in the fifth inning, slowly remove his uniform, carefully fold it into a neat little pile, walk into the stands, out the park, and hail a cab. Never be heard from again.

Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.
