Define lately.

 

BA over the last 7 days: .167/.167/.417/.583.

 

I really have no idea why Brian Anderson gets so much hype here. He's a marginal major league player with a really solid glove.

 

And Thome's hitting .150 over that same time period.

Still has 6 walks and a .646 OPS making him the better hitter over that time span.

he's gonna hit another bomb and an umpire is going to call it an out, because he has too much magic on his bat.

I agree with you. Anderson is a classic bench player. He's looks good against the right match ups and in short spurts, but over a long period of time he is exposed.

Meanwhile, I love his defense and I think he saves a lot of runs. At this point, I don't know if Anderson saves more runs than Thome creates.

 

Is it just me or has every inning ended in a 3U grounder to Paulie?

The last three have been groundout to first to end the inning.

It seems like Thme has seen first pitch curveball in every AB he's had this series.

So has PK had this bone bruise for a while now or is this just from tonights swing?

For a while....and I'm sick of hearing it as an excuse. DL him if it's that bad. And BTW, Thme is now under .200.

Well he really looks in pain tonight, but I agree. DL him for a couple weeks and hope it gets better. This team can cover for a 1st baseman

For the love of Quentin, put Konerko on the DL.

My guess would be Owens would get a callup then with a platoon in CF.

 

I agree, he looks like he's hurtin.

 

Nice single by Crede.

Sox could use a guy like Ross Gload about now.

Uribe is actually batting higher than Thome by .001.

Can we get some runs to take the pressure off of our pitchers?

Uribe has been pretty good since changing his stance. He's walking more this season and has been hitting pretty well the past 2 weeks or so. Maybe it's just me, or maybe it's just his performance compared to the rest of the offense sans JD and CQ.

No. And they will also play shaky defense to make things that much more interesting.

Looks like Garland's going to qualify for a quality start.

Now Thome leads Juan by .001

Oh boy....looks like a possible DL stint for Uribe if he pulled a hammy/quad.

I'm rooting more than anyone for OCab to get it going with the bat, but he has such a long, loopy swing.
