I'd prefer Robin to actually get some minor league managerial experince if we were to go in that direction.

Harry Chappas Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 Beckham looked good last night. Ramirez looked like he has never played before. Terrible game by he, Dye and AJ again. Â Getting an Ozzie team will suck as the bunting will be out of control. Funny how bunting is so popular but the hit and run is non-existant. Â Not sure what the future has in store but you knew yesterday and today were going to be scary bad as far as the hitting is concerned. The Sox should be able to hit the next nine pitchers they face sans Zambrano as I believe they miss Galardo, not sure about Cueto. Â Thome better play 1B in the NL parks if Konerko is hurt as there are no other options. If he plays well over that span he is then tradable to the NL. Â What do the Sox have to lose?

ThunderBolt Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 We have no business bunting with anyone other then D-Wheezey. And that's only because he can hardly hit the ball. Pods and Alexei are fine if we're aiming for a base hit, but why even bother moving the runner over? We can't get him and we're just wasting an out.

Balta1701 Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 QUOTE (Chet Kincaid @ Jun 11, 2009 -> 11:07 AM) I was just curious... Does anybody know how Gio Gonzalez and Fautino De Los Santos are doing in the A's organization? Are they panning out? DLS had the Tommy John surgery last year and has not pitched since. Gio's pitched decently at AAA the last 2 years for the A's, but has struggled when he's come up. 7 starts last year, 10 games appeared in, ERA over 7. 2 appearances in a relief role as a long man for the A's this year so far, ERA over 7.

He was batting .410 last year in late May and went 1-20. Puljols is similar in that he seems to strike out an inordinate amount of times against the cubs. Although he has hit him a time or two as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
