Does anyone think opposing pitchers actually look forward to starts against this team? I honestly think they might.

 

The last time we had a good offense was the first half of 06. 05 was pretty much a bad offense who got hot in the playoffs. We have had the same thing going for the last 8 years. Lift and pull, score 10 one game, barely get hits for the next week. When you look at the end of the year we score our runs, but its not balanced. Its a combination of our GM picking up these guys, and our hitting philosophy.

 

 

Did we honestly look any better against DET and KC at this point 3 years ago?

 

I remember watching the likes of Blum and Borchard hopelessly flail away...more frustrating than this.

It's why I always laugh when people say Ozzie is a great motivator. This is a worse level of corpseball coming down the stretch than Manuel could have ever dreamed of.

 

100% agreement.

This is a fantastic post.

Having to work today has saved me from a day of frustration with the Sox and Bears.

 

To work.

I find more frustation of Thome, Dye and Konerko flail away that 2 scrubs.

At this point in 2005, we were wrapping up a series win against the Twins by winning 3 of 4. We lost a heartbreaker in the first game, and then beat the s*** out of them the next 3 games. There was the Contreras masterpiece and Buehrle masterpiece that weekend, along with a bunch of homers.

Well we always hit well at home.

But didn't we lose 2 of 3 against the Royals near the end of the season that final month? There was one really sloppy and frustrating game (maybe it was raining) when Buehrle was pitching...not to mention that game where we had a HUGE lead against KC and somehow blew it. That was a nightmare, waking up the next morning and seeing the final score and staring in disbelief.

Ass! TB had two men on and one out and Zorbist grounds into DP.

Awesome.

Swish with a hit.

Stealing is stupid.

Hit and run disaster.

Swish! Now don't be too funny over there.

 

How long before this team realizes they can't steal bases???

Juanie needs to get on one of his patented one week hot streaks again.

lol

Well I dont blame you for trying. We arent getting 2 or 3 hits in a row.

Brilliant

It was a hit and run.

Right size,wrong shape.

The manager hasn't figured out his team cant but yet. Our manager thinks that his softball team built with linebackers is a set of dainty guys like Pierre and company.

 

 

Get up in that wind!

Oh Hawk, you are such an idiot.
