Thome is amazingly bad right now. I do see us scoring tonight, at least 6, so we gotta keep them down. Get Russell warming in the pen beacause we are still in this, but Javy is another bad inning from giving us one s***ty start to the homestand.

Theres no one I want less at the plate with the bags juiced than Thome....never thought id have to say that...

I remember a couple of season ago when I knew if there was a RHP on the mound if I saw a fastball it would be hit hard somewhere. Now, not so much, im just hoping for a walk.

The homestand has already been s***ty.

Mind blank. Haha. I think I meant the week.

I seriously hope KW isn't as stubborn as last season with his faith in this team and not make a move....this team has to drive him nuts as it does most of us.

Thome is 2-30 with RISP and 2 outs this season.

That probably puts him middle of the pack on our team.

Stay hot JD! He needs to be batting 4th.

DYE at least he is hitting!!

Yeah but BearSox said he hasn't done anything lately.

Dye is far and away the most underappreciated player on the Sox, and his career with the Sox has been nothing short of sensational.

That is one run more than I thought we'd score the rest of the way so color me pleasantly surprised.

Please be clutch Crede. That grounder to the right side you hit last time wouldn't be a bad thing here.

It just kills me how people s*** on Dye. I don't get it. Sure he gets some pretty horrid ABs in a cold streak now and again, and he is slow out there in RF, but his numbers don't lie.

Alexi ties it!!

I think it's funny when people put him in a group with Thome and Konerko among players that are hurting the Sox.

Time to put Alexei in motion, maybe even hit and run.

That a boy Ramirez! He's getting so much hang time on his swing.

Some of these Sox hitters could learn a thing or two from watching Alexi...IMO

Wise with his first basehit.

Really good at bats this inning.

JD's is either feast or famine. He's either incredibly hot and can carry this team...or horrendous...but he's moreso been good. He has been tremendous with his years with the Sox though.

While Thome is disappointing, I don't think he should be in the same tier with Paulie either. They've both been bad, but Konerko has been horrendous. At least Thome has hit a few bombs.

2 for 30 with RISP and 2 outs....'nuff said

It's insane. Even a cursory glance at his numbers should make people who complain about him shut up. Although I do think he should DH next year.
