greg775 Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 QUOTE (spiderman @ Jul 6, 2011 -> 08:00 PM) This offense is just pathetic. It generally doesn't have much trouble getting a runner or two on base, but the moment that happens, there's basically no chance of a hit and a great chance of a double play, pop up or strikeout. You know your team sucks when people are hoping for a Dunn K with one out instead of a DP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 lol what frustrates me the most is people believing in this team, the writing is on the wall and has been all year: THEY CAN'T BEAT THE TEAMS IN THEIR DIVISION. stop thinking this team is better than they are, they aren't winning the division, the twins are gonna win 2 of 3, or sweep us after this series. don't be surprised when it happens, either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 I would have been happier had we just gotten no-hit. At least then there would have been some pressure on the coaching staff, some embarrassment and humiliation. POSTGAME CALL FIRE GREG WALKER....HOW CAN WE NOT FREAKING HIT BRUCE CHEN???????????????? Rongey, well.....Chen's 5-2, he's got an ERA close to 3.00, he's tough. That's FIVE, count 'em FIVE, major league teams he's beaten this season. He's a lot like Jamie Moyer or Tim Wakefield. He can throw hitters' timing off for weeks. Look what he did to Konerko, our best hitter and someone who's been totally locked in for 18 months. At one point, Bruce was the top-ranked pitching prospect in the game when he was coming up with the Braves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly, with an offense this bad, that seems to unrealistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To not fire Walker at the all star break after the upcoming Twins embarrassment will be a slap in the face of any fan who pays the outrageous prices of modern day baseball to support this team.

RockRaines Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 We have a league avg offense. And its still pathetic. How you could have a team that supposedly "underachieves" and you havent made any changes is beyond me. Most clubs that perceive they arent getting enough out of their team will : 1. Bring up their top prospect who has proven he can hit MLB pitching and is raking in the minors 2. Change SOMEONE on the coaching staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klaus kinski Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 It's disturbing that this continues and, no batting stance changes, no choking up a little to make contact, no one seemingly aware of game situations. You cant call what our coaches do, as coaching. There is no instruction thats visible to me. If they are ignoring it, they shouldn't play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't they scored just 3 ER in 4 games this season against them? Perhaps the Sox are ready to even things out ever so slightly, but I have no reason to expect the Sox being competetive against the Twins this weekend.
