Holy crap, he got a hit.

Nice at bat for Thome. He needs to be in swing hard in case you hit it mode.

Should be PRing for Thome. If Paulie gets a single and Thome doesn't score, I'll be pissed.

I like the fact he went the other way. That is wahat he needs to do to come out of this slump

PK is 0-3 with RISP and 2 outs today.

More 2 out/RISP magic.

That was quick.

Obviously that won't be a problem.

Another left on hurray!

Didn't Balfour suck last year when he was with Milwaukee?

When is he ever not in that mode?

Oh yes, big time. Cost them a few games.

This guy is an awful singer. Yes, I said it.

When is he ever not in that mode?

 

I mean instead of taking 2 strikes every at bat.

Giambi is like top 5 AL in OPS. Damon has an .838 OPS. These guys are freaking Hall of Famers compared to what we've got going on.

 

Beltre has been pretty good, too. Certainly more productive than our guys. Silva and Sexson have been bad, but it's still just those two guys vs. our pathetic 3.

 

Jones has been bad. Pierre is OK for what they want out of him. Loaiza has been about as good as Buehrle. Those guys make about $10-12 M less than our three.

ok i didnt realize giambi was that good, but lets toss out damon and throw in mussina and add in the fact that pavano has 0 innings and id take our trio

 

the dodgers trio: loaiza was cut, but htey still pay his entire contract, so i have no idea how he is "as good as buerhle" pierre stinks...his OPS is lower than both konerko and Thome, and they make more than our guys do when you consider that we pay only half of thome

 

and beltre hasnt really been any better than thome has

 

 

regardless it doesnt matter...i knew what your original point was, that for what we pay em they should be alot more productive, and i agree

This is not good. PK is touted as our best fastball hitter too. 3 strikes and your out at the old ballgame. I should write a song

Nothing like expanding the zone for the pitcher.

 

Okay, how exactly does a team hide their middle of the order so we can score runs.

He just needed to face a Walker lead hitting team it cures ALL struggling pitchers!

Our offense SUCKS.

 

The pitching has been great, but these guys need to step it up else were going to battling .500 all season.

Split up Thome and Konerko.

on the bench might work.

Everytime I turn on the Cubs game, they are talking about how they have the best record in baseball. They even have a standings graphic for it. Lame.

The solution is, dont turn the channel to the cubs game.

They do have the best record by a few games now. When they stop winning as much as they have, then they won't show that graphic.
