Pods is awesome.

 

Now hitting .085 against the most important opponent this year, in nearly 50 AB's.

Pods is the slowest fast guy in baseball.

I agree.

 

Let Mack face righties and bench Pods when lefties are on the mound. :bang

Anyway to keep Mack out of CF works for me.

ugh

f***!

It's not Pods' job to get hits. He's here to be the spark plug by getting on base and wrecking havoc.

 

Why would we want a slower leadoff hitter who might hit better or knock in more runs?

 

:angry:

I'd like to see Pods run as hard to firstbase as he does running into the dugout from the outfield.

I still think we're gonna get to Verlander soon. Jose needs to keep the score right where it is.

For those not watching, could Pods have beat the play at first if he had more speed?

Darn. At least we got a couple guys on base. Hopefully we will start to come around offensively.

 

Need Jose to put up another zero first.

Probably not, but it wasn't even close with his current speed.

Glad pods is pulling the ball. That always works.

Did I mention how much I love the Neifi Perez trade?

At this time he has no value.

Anyone else hate how ESPN shows the score on MNF

No, but he could have made it closer, and if he had a reputation of running hard, he could cause a bobble once in a while.

Problem is that he doesnt get on base enough, and his D in LF is subpar

Great, our pitchers always throw so well after HBP.

Yep, and the sooner KW and Ozzie makes a change, the sooner our offense could add a spark. I don't care if he's an igniter or not, 25-114 since the break with no power and only a handful of steals isn't MLB caliber.

hmmm, might want to try not hitting everyone.

Please don't let this guy score. A lot of White Sox pitcher's HBP victims seem to score.

Dead-on right. I've seen Juan Pierre cause quite a few mistakes this year just because he busts his ass, and has a reputation for doing so.

I think "subpar" is a bit of an understatement. I could live with his hitting if he played solid defense - but he's anythomg but solid out there.

I've been so impressed with Pierre the last 3 months or so.
