QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 1, 2011 -> 08:15 PM) It makes sense..he doesn't have enough power to hit it over left fielder's head, and they play him so shallow. There's a ton of room for him down the right field line (unless Sam Fuld is out there). I agree. What you said makes sense. It's his only hope. Try to elevate the ball just a little bit and to do that he's gotta pull it!

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jul 1, 2011 -> 08:13 PM) You do realize Pierre is up next. Yes, my point was it was a semiintentional walk. He would have whiffed swinging at those balls.

Fathom is right! Juan needs to pull the f***ing ball!!! Great hit Juan.

He had to take the walk. HOME RUN PLEASE!!

What is Dunn doing? This is a semiintentional walk. Take the walk!

I'm convinced Oz should be canned for the bunting thing now because our offense can't hit singles with runners in scoring position.

Good thing we sent the runner. No DP. They'll walk Dunn. But what's a manager to do?

Oz should be axed after this game for the bunt attempt. Our offense needs to start pounding home runs.

Ugh on the bunt. HOME RUNS!

Nice hit by Rios. Now more home runs!!!!

QUOTE (docsox24 @ Jul 1, 2011 -> 08:05 PM) He was taken off third base because he can't play it. He is actually decent in the OF. Left field is occupied. Finally a home run!

Nice hit, AJ. Please no more DPs. How bout some home runs!!!!

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 1, 2011 -> 08:01 PM) Sorry, this game is all on our main guys (Quentin, Konerko, Ramirez) Yes but every game it's the same. Very close boring games because of our offense.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jul 1, 2011 -> 07:59 PM) Good to know Greg Walker has the batting coach job for the next 10 years. I don't think it ultimately matters much, but it is time for a new hitting coach era on the south side.

I know it's beating a dead horse, but to not bring Dayan up for this series ... somebody has to be fired.

QUOTE (bucket-of-suck @ Jul 1, 2011 -> 07:56 PM) You're not wrong. I have a terrible felling about this series. I hoping for a win on Sunday. It's gonna be party time for the Cubbies' fans this weekend.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jul 1, 2011 -> 07:56 PM) But where would he play? There isn't a single guy I could think of that deserves to be benched, DFA'd, or traded away. Unfortunatley we took him off third base. So he has to play left. That's the only place to put him. We also could have NOT acquired Dunn and let Dayan DH. But we had to have Adam. I'm just starting to watch the game. I assume he's hitless or not playing.

What's with CQ and the weak DP grounders? Hit the ball over the f***ing fence. Lift and pull it out of the park.

To not call Dayan up for this series in Wrigley is so sad. Give the kid a chance to blast 5 home runs in 3 games and uh, maybe lead this offense to victory.

We can't even hit Randy Wells. I'm speechless.

I wish I knew what I said when we signed him. No way I'm goin thru 50 pages of responses to find my remark. I think I gave it a thumbs up.

QUOTE (SoxPride56 @ Jul 1, 2011 -> 05:48 AM) That's a direct reflection of the manager. I don't know about that. Ozzie is as intense as they come. He brings it daily.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 1, 2011 -> 03:18 AM) He had a hit today, a walk, and hit a few other balls hard. QUOTE (whitesoxbrian @ Jul 1, 2011 -> 03:24 AM) 0 for his last 11? He had a walk and a base hit today. EDIT: Oops, someone beat me to that. For some reason I thought he was benched today.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 1, 2011 -> 02:58 AM) Both Peavy and Pierre stated that the team came out with no energy today. That's pretty frustrating to hear when you have your entire bench playing, as they should be your energizers. That is frustrating. Maybe it's the Rockies. That is a pretty dull team except for Tulo. But what's wrong with the Sox? You'd think they'd want to win the third game and thus, the series 2-1.
