Pretty much Iguchi and Pods both suck against LH, which cripples the offense from the top.
Uribe is the key to this team's offense IMO. The top of the order, including AJ and Crede, are all hitting either on pace or much better than their career averages, which is great, but with the pitching slacking, the offense needs to step up even more--which means Uribe and Anderson need to start pulling their weight. If the top of the order slumps a little, and lately they have, then Uribe can help offset that lack of production by being a run producing threat at the bottom of the order. A power hitting SS (at times) like Juan is a rare commodity, and with his all-world glove, I'm glad he's a White Sox.
Lets hope Uribe's hot streak continues for awile.
