Our offense is friggin' bad.

I hate you Radio Team....got my hopes up

 

How long before Walker is fired?

 

It's not the pitching right now...seems like the media always wants to pin it on the hitting coach. Ozzie's very loyal, it will be interesting to see how long this offensive slump goes on. We need to be ready to play our next two series or we could get knocked out of the race in the first month of the season.

I'm just asking how it's fair that we keep having to go to the colisseum, a park we notoriously suck at, almost sixty percent of the time over 6 years

 

since 2003 it's even worse than that... 64% of our games vs. oakland have been at the colisseum

I'm quite sure it will all average out.

Ok, it's not that smart to even think about being knocked out of the race 1 month into the season. Not even remotely. Seems each of the last few years, someone has gone down big in the first month or two and still made the playoffs. Astros, A's, Cardinals I think, etc.

OK. Tell me who is the better option for hitting in the 2 hole:

Choice A)The guy who has 1 AB all year, not a great contact hitter, not great OBP history, long loopy swing

Choice B)The guy who hit 2nd for 2 YEARS with this team, posted a great OBP, used to the role and does the things that are needed hitting 2nd

Its pretty simple.

Not only that...I think Iguchi hitting in the two hole once in a while will actually be good for his swing.

Iguchi looks about as good as Konerko and Dye right now at the plate, and this has been a lingering question since his horrible spring, which seems to be an annual tradition with him

Piazza quickly grounds out.

yes speed is all you need. That's why pods is such a great CF.

 

I'm actually aware of that, but Terrero is a better OF than Pods...

 

Look, I actually like Anderson. He just doesn't have a place on this team. And declaring he should be starting based on a nice catch in the OF seems like overkill.

This needs some kick in the ass...i dont care how, let it happen.

Chavez grounds hard to Uribe. 2 outs.

Chris Singleton and Ed Farmer should be illegal...what an embarrasment.

Those are in crappy divisions.

 

We cant do that in our division, its the best in baseball.

Maybe we could get the Ligues to serve as greeters.

Im sure theyre booked with dinner and dancing at Taco Bell

Just wait until we get a statistically significant set of at bats from Erstad and Podsednik, and we'll see.

Not if you ask Greg Walker. I heard him a few weeks ago on the radio, saying that Iguchi got into some bad habits batting second. I am not kidding about this.

Last week it was Coop getting fired, this week its Walker.........Soxtalk is hilarious sometimes.

 

Stay tuned folks!!!!!!!!!!

Fly out to Podsednik. Inning.

Chris Singleton and Ed Farmer should be illegal...what an embarrasment.

 

The game is an inconvenient backdrop for those two.

Buehrle has allowed 1 baserunner in the past 4+ innings I believe.

Those teams didn't have to catch three teams in their divisions...they only had to jump one or two.

 

The Cardinals were about 10-15 games over .500 for most of the season, almost collapsed to let the Astros back in it and just survived.

 

The Astros and the A's...but the A's only have four teams in their division and the Angels are their only real competition.

Those bad habits are not getting around and getting under the ball enough to hit it out of the park.

I'm tired of this crap.

 

Yet ANOTHER quality start by our pitching, yet we've scored 6 runs in 3 games against average A's pitchers(Besides Harden).

Yeah, all that hitting to the right side instead of pulling was terrible. Glad we got rid of that....
