fathom Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ May 31, 2009 -> 12:44 AM) If Josh can still play left field, you gotta bring up Beckham for third. Pods is just horrible. Are you kidding..I'm worried we'll give Pods a contract extension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lostfan Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 Good lord Alexei, it's like the idea of throwing him a breaking ball with 2 strikes was unfathomable to him. Although that s*** Meche threw him was filthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paint it Black Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 QUOTE (Kalapse @ May 30, 2009 -> 06:44 PM) When you take away 1 game and a player's numbers drop from meh/bad to horrendous it means he's giving you very little consistency. Well it also shows how small the sample size is. People, Pods didn't magically find talent in the minors. He wasn't that good in 2005, he was bad in 2006, and he's bad in 2009.

Kalapse Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 Another terrific at bat by Podsednik. Just because he stopped striking out doesn't mean he's giving you good at bats, it just means he's being more aggressive early in counts. This last PA was a perfect example of just that.

Needless to say if Pods played the whole year for the Sox, we'd have the winner of most outs made in baseball in consecutive seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what happens when you reach base 6 times after not getting on anymore than 2 times in any other game this season. If it were May 24th and you took away his best game of the year his number wouldn't take much of a hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 (edited) On the positive side, Buehrle has the most innings pitched of any MLB since the start of the 2001 season. He's also the only MLB pitcher to have 10+ wins, 30+ starts and 200+ IP in the last eight seasons. By the way, Mark Teahen owns Buerhle. PS: As usual, leaving the runner at 3rd base absolutely destroys any momentum for your team...seems like the other team always scores or takes control of the game after that happens.

caulfield12 Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 Butler is far from a home run hitter, but he's already hit 2 in his career against Mark. Although everyone (Hawk included) is patiently waiting for a 20+ HR season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
