The Sox should try to make an out. Then they might get a hit.

Ozzie equal great person.

Joe needs to start hitting or we're going no where fast. This team is in trouble. We're in danger of being buried in our division if we don't start hitting/winning.

That is amazing. Walker should be reassigned over this. Bring up the minor league hitting coach, not that it will matter. Fathom said it right. Nobody could make this lineup hit. Dye, Konerko, Crede, AJ, Iguchi don't need (or wouldn't listen to) hitting coaches anyway.

My question is... what lineup do you want Oz to put out there? Williams needs to take the blame. When Dye and Konerko (HR today) and AJ and Crede aren't hitting and Iguchi as well we are going to SUCK. The other two outfield positions besides Dye have no candidates for success. And w/out Thome we don't have a decent DH. The roster is limited. The bad luck is we're pitching pretty well. But what can Oz do??? He has no good options right now.

Southside Irish is probably right. Maybe just the shock of firing the coach will help. I still question how much our guys listen to any hitting coach.

Walker should be fired but I really don't think it will matter. I mean how much do our veterans listen to a hitting coach anyway? You think anybody can tell Uribe how to hit? Or Paulie? Even Crede, AJ? Our lineup is dead w/out Thome.

Is anybody else getting worried about Cleveland running away with it this year with Detroit the obvious second best team in the division?

You guys are a tough crowd. the guy homers for the Sox and I sense negativity.

I agree with Bovine, option C. BA cannot hit. He needs a 2 year stint in the minors in our organization and we can see if he is a big leaguer after 1000 at bats in the minors.

Our scouts need to go. How could anybody draft a guy who bats like BA No. 1? He looks like a pitcher at the plate. What round was Jeremy Reed? We need new scouts.

This isn't meant as a flame against anybody but do you really believe a hitting coach matters that much? Or at all? The well paid guy with the bat in his hands either hits it or don't.

Fathom was right last night. Wout Thome we are doomed. We got no offense. Can't score even at the Cell. We look like a .500 team. Signs are Thome will have injuries the rest of his career. He's at that age.

Sox hats undeniably are the best in the league. Same with the traditional uniforms. It amazes me the Sox haven't had these uniforms all throughout history. Look at some of the unis in the 70s, 80s, 90s til we went to these and some were pretty bad. These uniforms are classics. I think our hat is better than the Yankee hat.

Yuk, Oz please play him. Our current bats suck. We need some life in the outfield.

Let him play. We need a change. I don't care if he hits .145 like BA. Let him play for 3 weeks. If he's hitting .145, then he can be the next prospect to flame.

All I can say is ... wow.

I agree Weaver was good but no better than Garland. We should have scored 3-5 runs innings 1-6.

It really is time to shake things up. Unless of course, we'd have won 6-3 with Thome. Seems like Murphy's Law right now. You gotta admit, Thome might have made a difference. We had a lot of baserunners early and middle game.

3-2, ballgame rite here!

Bad swing Iguchi, lifted head.

How bout a base hit to right?

We're at home, make 'em pay! Let's tie it up.

Maybe we can make the skipper pay for a DUMB decision.

This was by far his best inning to date.
