June 7, 200619 yr You've been great this year man. I mean it, really great, just spectacular. But if you could make f***ing contact with a man on 3rd and 1 out, I'd really appreciate it. Sac Flys aren't evil, and this game would be tied if you could hit one. That's all, and I hope this thread gets a bump later as you get a game winning hit.

June 7, 200619 yr You should have sucked it up tonight and resisted the temptation to criticize Thome. He's been perfect this year and out with injury of late. He isn't worthy of any criticism.
June 7, 200619 yr JI JIM THOME WAS 19-41 W/ A 1.693 OPS W/ RISP COMMING INTO THE GAME. 1.095 OPS W/ RISP + 2 OUTS. JEAN JACKETS ARE A FORCE OF NATURE.
June 7, 200619 yr I doubt that Thome would respect a suggestion with an "F-word" in it. He seems to be a man more from the Napoleon Dynamite School of Verbage. Edited June 7, 200619 yr by knightni
June 7, 200619 yr He is hitting 4-26 in close and late situations. That'd be more my gripe, but it's hard to argue with the guy with MVP numbers right now.
June 7, 200619 yr QUOTE(Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 6, 2006 -> 10:43 PM) How dare he not be god of the universe!
June 7, 200619 yr Because hitting a 100 mph fastball is so easy, anybody can do it... Thats why Bobby Jenks sucks so bad.
June 7, 200619 yr Firday, April 21st. Jim Thome stands at the plate against Johan Santana, bottom of the 6th, scoreless tie, Tadahito Iguchi leads from first. Thome works the count to 3-1, gets a changeup out over the plate and hits a flyball to left center field. 2-0 Sox.

June 7, 200619 yr Author QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Jun 7, 2006 -> 10:37 AM) How quickly we forget. I didn't forget, I was at the game. And Gooch was not on 3rd base, which is the point of this thread. I'd like to see Thome's stats with a man on 3rd and 1 out, which is the easiest RBI situation in the game. They probably aren't very good.

June 7, 200619 yr One thing I want to know is his HR placement. I swear, at least 15 of his homers have been to LF this year. Can someone find that out?

June 7, 200619 yr Thome is a beast. The man is easily a top 3 candidate for MVP right now. There is absolutely no reason to bad mouth him.
