really??

Yeah. I was stunned. I thought for sure he would be in trouble.

IMO BA has looked much more patient and has just looked better at the plate overall. Fields is off to a decent start after being unimpressive last year. All I'm saying it that I think it's stupid to blame Walker when veterans are making stupid ass mistakes. But I'm open as to why you don't like Walker

 

Fields sucked last year cause his knee was basically worthless. He showed huge power potential 2 years ago when he called up, and he just doesn't look like as aggressive this year (batting him 2nd has got to mess with his mindset). I'm not going to even discuss Anderson though, as his swing still is rather awful for a MLB starting position player and he's shown no extra base hit potential this year.

There was an earthquake in Illinois about 4 years ago that was quite the experience.

someone told me the fault line there could do more damage than the san andreas. I'll defer to Balta.

why don't we ever PH for Thome in these situations?

Yeah. I was stunned. I thought for sure he would be in trouble.

In the era of Youtube and Deadspin, no doubt he'd be in trouble today.

Really wish Feldman was in, as I'd take Thome's chances against a sinker baller than a hard throwing lefty.

THOME !!!

I think Betemit for Thome here

Put Thome on the DL. NOW.

The New Madrid doesn't go often, but when it does, it can be a big one.

 

Thome with a 3R double!

Nope, very top of the wall. damn.

So happy to be wrong!

KC ties it

Less than a foot.

 

I was dead wrong about Jim, if he can drive the ball like that then he needs to be in the lineup. I will never doubt him again.

If a pitcher just hits Thome's bat, it can do major damage.

Mike Maddux is supposed to be a great pitching coach. You still need decent pitchers.

He's absolutely incredible. He missed badly on that first pitch fastball but his swing on the double was a thing of beauty. I f***ing love that big lug.

I do too. He's looked like he's about 50 years old for several years, talks real slow and eats a lot of red meat.

Konerko reminds me of Eeyore whenever he does the pop-up shoulder shrug.
