  1. He's still better than your prime example of a speedster.

     

    It's not only his bat that bothers me, it's also his pitiful speed in the outfield. He has to dive for plays that anyone else makes sprinting. Gomez was 3-4 2R, 1RBI and 1K today. JD 0-4 2K's (again). How many times can this guy go 0-4 with 2K's before Ozzie takes him out? He's killing the team.

  2. No, its because once they get a walk and a hit, they GIDP or pop up weakly in the infield. Having one fast guy at the top of the lineup wouldn't make a bit of difference.

     

    You're probably right about that, but taking one really slow guy out of the middle of the lineup and replacing him with decent speed will make a difference. If Jermaine was not in the lineup today or yesterday, we win.

  3. We had 9 hits and 3 walks. It's frustrating when you leave runners on, but if we get a hit everytime there are runners on then I'm pretty sure our offense would be unparalleled in the history and future of the game, and it wouldn't even be worth playing games anymore. That goes for all teams, at all levels. Everyone does it (LOB's), and I think fans of teams who get shut out often(which has happened once, maybe twice to us this year) have more of a right to complain. At least we put runners on base...

    Carlos jacked another, Uribe is drifting closer to the Mendoza line, BA got 3 hits, and Swisher walked twice. Worse games have been played, dear Chicken Little's, and worse will be played...

     

    Yet they lost. I would rather see them lose by 10 runs then lose the way they did today.

  4. but what about SPEED!!!!!!

     

     

    The team was hitting the ball ok to all fields to begin the season, now seem to be lift and pull again. This day off couldnt come at a better time.

     

    Why do you think we've had so many players left on base? I'll tell you. Nobody can run. Station-station base running loses games like todays, yesterdays and Monday's.

  5. The only person I can see who's expendable is Dye. He needs to be traded. This team needs some speed ASAP.

     

    1. Owens LF

    2. Swish CF

    3. Thome DH

    4. Konerko 1B

    5. AJ C

    6. Quentin RF

    7. Crede 3B

    8. OC SS

    9. Uribe 2B

     

    Lets get this lineup in there.

  6. Injuries killed our already small chance last year. We have a better chance of success and hopefully we will stay healthy too. I say a pray to no one every night that AJ doesn't get injured. I can't think of a player nearly as crucial to our success.

     

    I think AJ and Jenks are the two most important players that need to stay healthy all year.
