QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 11, 2009 -> 08:53 PM) What has Boston's hitting coach done to Big Papi? He is alot like Thome Bat speed way down....I do not blame Walker for Thome's problems.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 11, 2009 -> 08:48 PM) His June last year was similar or better than what he has done thus far this season, so once again, you're wrong. Thank You Mrs. Walker

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 11, 2009 -> 08:42 PM) Swisher didn't listen to Walker. You must have missed the article last week. Also, Swish is on the decline. Wait until the end of the year when he will be down again. If Jerry Owens didn't get hurt in spring training 2008, Quentin would have started the season in Charlotte. I do not care what Swisher does rest of the year the Yankees got more production out of him in a month than Sox got all year. All Sox players should not listen to Walker If they want long careers.

QUOTE (JustWin @ May 11, 2009 -> 08:41 PM) Great. So we actually get 12 hits in a game and we still can't win. If would be so embarrassing if we lose this series (or worse, get swept) after the way every other team has basically walked all over Cleveland. Sad to say but this is White Sox Baseball 2009!

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 11, 2009 -> 08:36 PM) That's ridiculous. Quentin was acquired for an A ball firstbaseman. He was behind Jerry Owens and almost was an MVP. Ramirez was hitting .170 in May last year and turned it around. He was working with Walker. He was behind Jerry Owens......he was hard to go around, what position is he playing now. That's right NONE! Swisher gets away from Walker and I'll be he is hitting again like before he got around Walker!

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ May 11, 2009 -> 08:32 PM) Did I just see this at bat right from Thome. three straight none reaching above 87 MPH and he K's His bat speed is just s l o w.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 11, 2009 -> 08:28 PM) And my post was in response to Walker never turning around a "castoff" Walker did nothing for CQ he gets NO credit what so ever!

QUOTE (stretchstretch @ May 11, 2009 -> 08:26 PM) and I'll provide a HUGE correction: 2008, first season with the WhiteSox, 288avg, 100RBI, 36HR, AL MVP frontrunner in shortened season Carlos Quentin, and first season with the White Sox, 290avg, Rookie of the Year candidate Alexei Ramirez say hello!!! 2009, second season with the White Sox .239 avg Carlos Quentin, second season with the White Sox .194 avg Alexei Ramirez, and Rookie of the Year Winner Evan Longoria now hitting .358, with 11HR, 44RBI in his second season with player developing Tampa Bay, all say "What's up Greg Walker??" That is my point also the more Walker is around these guys the worse it gets, also CQ was hurt most of Spring Training last year so Walker could not totally screw him up before season started and AR spoke no english so he could not understand GW nonsense! SAD BUT TRUE:gosoxretro:

Don't worry guys Walker will fix his swing! CQ hitting .237 now

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 11, 2009 -> 08:19 PM) Getz 0/4 and down to .277. Not good.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 11, 2009 -> 08:15 PM) I hate Greg Walker, so don't think I believe he does a good job. However, why can't you say the same about Cooper and Floyd then? Comparing Cooper to Walker is like MLB to Tee-Ball!

Sox can score 4 runs when they give up 10 plus.............Whoppie

QUOTE (fathom @ May 11, 2009 -> 08:10 PM) I'll stick up for DAllen and Greg Walker....Carlos Quentin says hello CQ having a good year last year is because of Walker.......BS. Please the more Walker is around him the lower is average goes.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 11, 2009 -> 08:07 PM) Why is it Walker gets criticized for the hitting but Cooper gets a pass on the pitching? The Sox have allowed 8 or more runs more than they have been shutout this year. After Cooper went out to talk to Floyd he gave up 2 hits and a HBP allowing 4 runs to score. Cooper has a track record with cast offs.........Walker has not done s*** EVER!

This team is DOA for 2009 as currently constructed

Floyd got his payday I hope he earns it!

Cleveland has been playing bad but the hitless wonders come to town and cures what problems the tribe has been having..........@(*&%

Getz needs to quit hitting fly balls!

Pavano has been getting hammered most of the year! Floyd looks like crap again!

No way 2 words.......BOR-ASS

A team that has trouble scoring cannot go game after game getting 3 hits in an inning and not score Dye, Konerko and Thome back to back is not working anymore, Sox have done this numerous times already. Sox as they are currently constructed today have NO chance at postseason play!

1 run out of all that again this team is horrid at scoring runs in clutch situations! Most teams get 2 plus out of bases loaded.

This is painful to watch night after night after night!

Jordan hands down...............LJ could not carry Jordan's jock EVER!

Sox to be shut out this much the first month is an absolute joke for a MLB team!
