Dick Allen Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 (edited) QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 8, 2010 -> 10:55 PM) To me, it was the exact same situation. Gordon Beckham isn't Mickey Mantle (yet) and Juan Pierre isn't Rickey Henderson. If Beckham is going to have to bunt twice in a game, he should immediately be moved out of the 2 hole. Its pretty much universally felt, the White Sox are offensively challenged, considering the league they play in. Having maybe your best hitter sac. twice in the same game is silly. What happened to stolen bases? I thought that was one thing Pierre brings to the table. Edited April 9, 2010 by Dick Allen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chw42 Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Apr 8, 2010 -> 10:57 PM) Speed and defense. That is how to get a big hit.  It would be great if we used our speed and played good defense.  That's why we're going to lose this game.

That's 5 spots that can genuinely run. Quentin can score from 1st on a double while healthy. I have no clue on Teahen. Konerko and Pierzynski are slow, but come on, Hafner? Redmond/The other guy?

joeynach Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 This is hilarious...the Indians have like 26 hits in this series. Id have to say at least half are of the blooper/bleeder variety. What a joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve9347 Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 I think this team just might perform better with a different manager at the helm. Â Call me nuts. Gordon Beckham should not be bunting twice in a ballgame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jphat007 Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 Must be nice to have players that can drive in runs with base hits. we have ZERO on the year. Only runs on HR, sacflies and groundouts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThunderBolt Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 We really might have to move Beckham to 3rd and Nix to 2nd. I think this is a worst case scenario, but it might have to happen if Teahen struggles for the next two weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
