QUOTE(caulfield12 @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 06:49 PM) Maybe we should sign Boggs and Gwynn as co-hitting coaches. Milkman would love it if we signed Boggs.

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 06:48 PM) ....and people want to kick his ass to the curb and send him to AAA. Actually, it's more projecting the difficulty he might have when it gets hot out and the ball is flying out of the Cell. It's all going to depend on the adjustments he makes.....as he does have a good history of making them.

QUOTE(shawnhillegas @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 06:47 PM) He would be the single worst offseason signing we could make. He has DH written all over him. I agree, but we don't have to worry about him returning.

Nice catch Jermaine!

QUOTE(caulfield12 @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 06:44 PM) It reminds me a lot of Frank Thomas when he was in a funk...flares to the right side, groundballs pulled to SS. Erstad looks like Aaron Rowand down the stretch in 05, except from the left side. Fantastic comparisons

QUOTE(Gregory Pratt @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 06:41 PM) I'll bet we did. Yankees wouldn't do that, though, and I'm not sure Alex Rodriguez would want to come here. And who's fault is that?

QUOTE(caulfield12 @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 06:42 PM) Why do the Indians' bats just sound a lot better than ours? KW was worried about getting old, I think you might be seeing that "slow/old" thing hitting simultaneously with Erstad, Thome, Konerko, Dye, AJ and Iguchi. Great point about the offense getting old. The thing is, over the next 3-5 years, we're going to have to spend a lot of money to have a solid offense. Not exactly a lot of offensive difference makers in our system.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 06:42 PM) Where's our Ryan Garko? Seriously, do we have any player who has went opposite field this entire season more than Garko has this series? Mr. Crede has about 15 pop ups to the right side of the field this year.

Might want to get in a reliever. These fastballs at 84 mph might be a sign he's tired.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 06:38 PM) Cmon, that's unrealistic. Every team would want a Ryan Garko. And a Grady Sizemore. And a Travis Hafner. And a C.C Sabathia!!!!11 Makes you wonder whether any opposing team watches our team and thinks, "Wow, that (player A); I wish we had a player of his capabilities." I still laugh how Hawk said we were the most talented team in the majors last year.

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 06:37 PM) I really wish we moved him in the offseason. We should have offered Crede, Buehrle, and some big prospects for ARod.

Impressive there. What a terrible offense. The guys seem so old and slow.

Good grief....everyone swinging for the fences. This team has horrible bat speed.

Horrible at-bat by Dye. He can't hit anything below his belt right now.

How's he missing those 84 mph fastballs?

Excellent swing by PK. Keep it going offense.

Nice break there. Need to get him in.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 06:26 PM) Are you being serious? I can remember a hell of a lot of times that the Sox have struggled over a 2 week period in the last few years. The first half of 2005 and the last half of 2006 weren't very good offensive squads.

Better command of his stuff the last two innings by Danks.

QUOTE(shawnhillegas @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 06:19 PM) This is embarrassing. Thankfully we upgraded the top of our order

Holy cow is he terrible. Funny how Hawk makes it out to seem like he's the greatest player ever.

Weak there by Pods.

Swing hard in case you hit it Pods.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 06:11 PM) Bere 1993 age 22 12-5 3.47 ERA 142IP 129k's filthy Fosh

QUOTE(Gregory Pratt @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 06:10 PM) McCarthy wasn't the fifth starter all year. He was a fill in. He sucked half his games; he excelled in his second half. He was superb once he came back from the minors with his full set of pitches. Nice play by Barfield.....we're so damn slow.
