WTF does he have to make that call for..Napoli is checking down on ever check swing there is....

 

I'm really surprised that Joe didn't react there...

Crede and Thome sure sucked tonight.

Rodriguez, wow.

We have enough power...lets get a speedy little s*** with a high OBP to take over DH and bat him first.

 

that would be hilarious

 

i guess he couldn't do any worse than Thome

What a dickhole Rodriguez is....seriesly, reign it in there, chappy

When someone hits a walk off of this jackass, they need to put on a show. I am talking about somersaulting with a handpress at 2nd, and then a bellyflop at home. What a clown.

 

 

That strike call to Crede was terrible, it wasn't even close. Napoli even appealed to first and he started to signal that he didn't go, because he didn't.

Can't wait for the 9th inning and expect to get it done. Go get 'em tomorrow. Nice game by Floyd though, except for that brain cramp inning.

Ump should of appealed on that check swing.

come on willie! come on willie!

k-rod needs to calm down with hit little antics after a game. i wouldn't even call that passion, that's ridiculous. he acts like he's saved the game 7 of the world series after every save

Thome is clutch.

Total agreement.

That was one of the worst calls by a home plate umpire I've ever seen. Not even CLOSE.

Thome is the last person on the roster, in terms of offensive players, I want up in any clutch situation. Not only has hit bat speed disappeared, but his strike zone judgment blows now. Everyone in the stands knows what pitch is coming except for him. I'll be at the game tomorrow...can't wait to see him chase the 3-2 change-up every time.

where are ross gload and timo perez to face krod when we need them

I'd trade Thome straight up for Gload in a heartbeat. Too bad the Royals wouldn't...

Ditto.

Thome is the last f*** on this roster I ever want up. I f***ing hate him. He was good in the past but I don't live on that. He makes contact on fewer swings than any everyday player in baseball. What a f***ing worthless bum.

By the way, that last sentence in my post above is not me b****ing, it is fact (his making less contact than any player in baseball on balls he swings at). I could totally do the whole DH as a leadoff hitter thing.

Id people want to know why I won't whine at Joe, he's had clutch hits and isn't 4 for his last 37 (in fact Joe is hitting very well the past 12 and has been rock solid all year; ie 10000 x better than JT).

It's disappointing that we have 3 players in PK, Thome, and Swisher who shock us all when they do something productive.

PK at least has a valid excuse. Swisher has been just as bad as Thome, but he's younger so I'm less inclinded to believe this is a permanent worthlessness. I'd deal Thome to Seattle for practically anything.
