May 11, 200322 yr Over the past 7 days, here are some of the Sox hitters' statistics... Daubach (4-7) .571 Olivo (5-13) .385 Crede (7-22) .318 Lee (6-19) .316 Jimenez (5-16) .313 Graffanino (2-7) .286 Guys who need to step it up are Magglio (.273, not bad, but should be around .300), Frank (.263), and Paulie (.211). Hopefully this is just the start of our team waking the hell up. We'll see if we can pad those numbers today vs. the soft-tossing lefty, Jamie Moyer.
May 11, 200322 yr I dont care about the averages as much as ob% and timely hitting.they still strand way too many runners with those numbers. I didnt realize how well some of the guys are hitting though.

That's pretty good for a struggling hitter. Daubach is coming into one of those hot streaks where he is going to get quite a few hits. It'd be a good idea to keep Paulie on the bench and let Dauber take 1B for about a week or so.

Maggs with a huge triple(don't tell me what you hit tell me when you hit it), Crede with a run-scoring DP. We looked a lot better last night. As did Colon, after giving up the homers. He made 2 bad pitches last night....and the M's hit them both.
May 11, 200322 yr Daubach should be playing everyday right now or at least against Righties. I'd use the lineup the Sox have been doing lately but with Daubach flip flopped with Rios.
May 11, 200322 yr It is what I have been saying all year. Give the bench guys regular AB's and they will hit. The bench his year is too good to have guys sit and rot like Leifer and Rowand did last year. Daub, Rios, and Graffy are invaluable if they get 12-15 AB's a week.
