May 1, 200520 yr Damn, Gload has only been in 3 games. I feel sorry for him. And those numbers dont seem too bad to me except for dye obviously
May 1, 200520 yr So in reality, Willie and Scotty have been awesome in doing their jobs of getting on base. Tadahito has taken over the 2004 job of Willie for getting 3 hits in one game, and then going 0 fer the next two games. Also it is impressive to see Crede so high on that list, for a guy who never walks.

I'd say that's kind of expected for Iguchi just cause of the learning experience, I think as the year goes on he'll have less and less of those. Willie and Scott have both been very good so far, Willie's filled in very nicely when he's had to and Scott keeps getting on base even if he's not hitting he's been taking a lot of walks. Kudos to both of them so far.

He's exceeded my expectations so far.

May 1, 200520 yr Author QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ May 1, 2005 -> 10:54 AM) Dye is horrible....he needs to get out of this big-ass slump, NOW! Dye has always been streaky. This chart shows his BA last year with Oakland, the dark blue is his cummulative season, the purple is week by week starting on Sundays. He's like the little girl with curl, when he's good he's very good and when he's bad he's terrible. This was talked about when they signed him, I think it was SS2K5? Dye may indeed end up with very good numbers but he is not the day in day out offensive force that Mags was. You can pound on him for missing the cut off man, and dropping that ball in Oakland, but you get what you get with him at the plate. The way to get him out of his slump is to get him over the flu and play him everyday.

Thanks for the chart, as long a he is consistent, I'll be happy....as long as he is NOT consistently BAD.
May 1, 200520 yr Nice work TLAK. Like I've said many times already this year. Dye being in the lineup everyday is quite alright with me, I want him in RF. I DO NOT want him batting 5th in the order, that is Ozzies fault. Thats the adjustment I want.

You won't be happy then As the chart very well shows, Dye appears to be one of the streakiest players in the league.
