ENOUGH OF THOMAS IN THE 3RD HOLE! He's turned into one of the most selfish hitters I've ever seen in baseball.

You know what? f*** Frank Thomas. Sit his ass for a week. He's worthless right now unless we need a meaningless homerun.

why is he trying for the 3 run homer?

I guess everyone's jumping off the Thomas bandwagon now.......

we had Rowand off the bench- we should have used him. Esspecially since Frank is in a major freaking drought! Frank has never been clutch-

Rowand has.

Frank's success right out of the gates made him think that he could just rely on hitting homers, and he's be able to do it at a great rate. However, his swing is so f***ed up right now. His entire backside is collapsing, and his swing is as bad as I've ever seen it. I would have rather had OMIT up that AB than Frank.

A pitch right down broadway, and he's selfish?

 

Hmm... Should I trust the guy who has gotten on-base at a .400+ clip for most of his career, or a message board lurker?

 

GMAFB. I can live with your first statement, but quit the bulls***. Selfish my ass.

Viz to face the heart of their order?

 

f*** it, we don't deserve to win it and Viz will make it reality.

He has sucked for awhile, but all hitters go into slumps and this is Frank's time it appears. A game or two down the road and he may be our hottest hitter.

why is Vizciano still in there?

:lolhitting

Meat of the order for the Tigs.

We're still playing for that 3 run homer it seems like. We have no balance in our lineup right now with all our speed at the top, and it creates a situation where it's either homer or nothing for far too many hitters.

Wtf? Is he not allowed to have a little slump after hitting 234242424 homers in a row?

Well, i Don't know if it's selfishness, but it's quite obvious that all Frank cares about at this point in his career are HRs. He wants to get to 500

Give him to the yankees. We are trying to win here not get him his 500 career homeruns. Damn Frank :finger cant you shorten up that huge @$$ swing and get a basehit.

Logans play is the key to the game definately.

Why is Jizzcan still in there?

If Harris isn't pinch running, or Podsednik not getting on base, the Sox don't steal anymore.

Right now, he's not the same hitter he used to be in terms of his approach. Yes, I consider Frank extremely selfish now. He's had 3 opportunities with a RISP this game, and he's been swinging out of his ass for the fences every time.

Because we're running out of relief pitchers, and if he can go 2 innings he'll have to do so.

Because he just got out of a big jam.

Edited by qwerty

Carl is a much better contact hitter- Frank is doing nothing but swinging for the fences. We don't need that selfish play on this team.

Because he just got out of a big jam.

 

;)

LOL, yep Uribe had nothing to do with it.
