Tonight, the young Mr. Floyd took a no-hitter in to the ninth inning. Earlier in the season, he took a no-hitter in to the seventh. When the White Sox traded for him, I killed the deal. Just killed it. All I saw was the Sox trading Freddy Garcia, who had won Game 4 of the World Series for us and was a proven starter, for a guy who had a career ERA over 6. My soul actually died a little.
Ah but flash forward to today. Garcia has now spent almost two full seasons on the injured list and Floyd has almost thrown two no-hitters. Oops.
So to you Gavin Floyd, I’m sorry. To you Kenny Williams, General Manager of the White Sox, I also apologize. Gavin, you are not a worthless pile of monkey spunk. Kenny, you are not actually dumber than Britney Spears.
My bad guys.
