Andy Marte = Joe Borchard

He walks 2 men on. We have 2 men on, and one out. And our hitters take straight fastballs down the cock, and then swing at crap that nearly bounce in. Good job Offense. Seattle wont be in last place for long with our efforts.

And one wonders how the Kason Gabbards of the world shut down our vaunted offense last year.

QUOTE(SoxAce @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 01:03 PM) It's a damn shame that we hit Harden better in 4 innings already than Byrd. Slow crap, low and away can turn any pitcher into Johan versus the softball squad we are putting out there today.

Strikeouts, and pullouts. I love this f***ing offense.

Has Uribe decided to stop defending. That was something he should of kept in the infield. The Ole approach is a bit much.

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 12:47 PM) Pitching. ...and I can't be the only one who noticed SSI71 and fathom showing up after the home runs. I like Danks and think he will be fine this year. My timing is due to having other things to do around the house. The tax man comes first, my procrastination can only go so far.

We are 29th out of 30 teams in all of the majors for Batting average with a 225BA. We are 19th in runs scored.

Our offense blows right now.

I love the overreacting on a 22 year old making his 2nd overall start in the majors. Number 2 guys, against one of the best hitting teams in baseball. Take a deep breath. Remember also, this is the fifth starter. In 05 take a peak at how El Duque did. It wasnt all roses and smiles from him.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Apr 13, 2007 -> 08:43 PM) I said Buerhle had been better up to that point of the year. Which was true. And yes, please post the gamethread. Cmon David. Throw strikes. Here you go. http://www.soxtalk.com/forums/index.php?s=...st&p=850929

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Apr 13, 2007 -> 08:41 PM) Sigh. One, that has nothing to do with what I was saying, two, I never said that. Are you sure you never said that. Because I could post the gamethread, and there are plenty of people that remember that. At least last year you just claimed it was only because at that time, Buerhle had a lower ERA by a smidge. Now you never said that. LOL

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Apr 13, 2007 -> 08:38 PM) LOL. At least wait until he isn't playing well to take a random shot at him. Well we could over hype a player playing well for a small part of the season. For example, Do you still want Buerhle over Johan?

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Apr 13, 2007 -> 08:35 PM) Yah. What has he done for us so far? It's not like he's only 1 of 2 players over .300 on our team or anything. Sure because a handful of games overcomes the few years of him hitting like crap. Maybe that 241BA and the sub 300OBP was an illusion to you post ASB last year.

Maybe Garko can lead off for us, he looks more like a leadoff hitter than ours does.

So Baltimore scores runs on Johan, the Devil Rays can hit and score runs on Johan. We look like the 12 year old worst team in the little league going up against the best in the Majors. Why can these teams do something, and we go up there and try to not get no hit.

QUOTE(jasonxctf @ Apr 13, 2007 -> 08:18 PM) who's comin in??? thong song

Still going for the homer. When we quit this s*** out and start to play baseball, we might win some more games. With the way our team has pitched, our record should be a lot better.

QUOTE(LVSoxFan @ Apr 13, 2007 -> 07:02 PM) I think they left him in Milwaukee. What is UP with all the strikeouts this year? Is it just me, or is this abnormal for us? Lift and Pull

QUOTE(LVSoxFan @ Apr 13, 2007 -> 06:58 PM) Man Thome cannot lay off that low and inside stuff! Hard to believe we are hitting .210 as a team.

Is flanders hitting his drums up in the upper deck tonight. I havent hear the mighty bongo call of the lilly white warrior, HIMHAVEM NOLIFE WOLF

Our offense needs to get their head out of its ass. We strike out way too much with men on in scoring position. Just hit a line drive and stop with the ESPN sportscenter heroic crap.

From 1-2 to a full count. We f***ing love to nibble. And he strikes out Sizemore on a nasty moving away pitch. Javy needs to attack that zone, his stuff is good. Nibbling is only going to raise his pitch count.

QUOTE(beautox @ Apr 13, 2007 -> 03:01 PM) Zambrano with a bad outing today, 6hits 4BB, ERA at 7.88 with the chance for another run to be charged to him, bases loaded no one out. Ron Santo is f***ing insane. The cubs are up 5 zip, with their ace cruising and he has a Zambozo moment walks the world, gives up a bunch of runs and then the cubs are down 6-5 giving up 6 runs in one inning. Wuertz comes in and strikes out the side, and Santo goes thats the momentum changer. Uh no, your ace and only good pitcher got pummelled again, at home and gave up 6 runs in one inning. Momentum is back to the team who came back from a 5 zip deficit. Enjoy your day you mope.

QUOTE(Controlled Chaos @ Apr 12, 2007 -> 02:04 PM) NUKE CLEVELAND! He is shooting iraqis right now, can we take a message.
