If I was the hitting coach, I would of told Joe to look away and go with it, don't go into free swing mode. Look for a location. Have a plan. Silly me.

Also outside of 2004, Juan has been in a hitting slump his entire career.

He has the history behind him with 20 homers last year for example plus his glove work
Which most were conveniently hit when we were in the toilet.

Well, we're going to have to score to win. Nothing like keeping our best hitter and clutch player on the bench.
Hopefully he will PH for Thome in the 9th.

So what are we saving CQ for? You're not going to use him for any of the first 7 guys in the lineup.
I kinda don't want to take Anderson's glove out of the game.
Steal Alexei!

lol i agree with you on that team....and whats sad is that i think they were either 9-10 or 10-9 against us that year
Wasn't Mike Maroth like 0-12 than beat us or something?

And this current Rockies team might be the worst team to wear a baseball uniform this decade.
I'd go with that Tigers team that almost set the most losses record. Rockies have injuries and if healthy, would be better than that Detroit team.

They do have the best record by a few games now. When they stop winning as much as they have, then they won't show that graphic.
By 1 game and it's June 1st. Since when does the race for the best record in baseball mean anything?
QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Jun 1, 2008 -> 01:29 PM)
Nothing like expanding the zone for the pitcher.
Okay, how exactly does a team hide their middle of the order so we can score runs.
Split up Thome and Konerko.
