CWSGuy406 Posted June 30, 2005 Share Posted June 30, 2005 QUOTE(jphat007 @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 01:58 AM) Well, i Don't know if it's selfishness, but it's quite obvious that all Frank cares about at this point in his career are HRs. He wants to get to 500 I certainly don't see that. He's still walking about as much as he was. I dunno, I bet a guy on this team could have a .950 OBP, and some of you would b**** about the .050 that he didn't get on base. But I'll digress and limit my posting in these threads. b**** away.

Milkman delivers Posted June 30, 2005 Share Posted June 30, 2005 QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Jun 29, 2005 -> 09:00 PM) If Harris isn't pinch running, or Podsednik not getting on base, the Sox don't steal anymore. It's ridiculous. We've reverted back to last year's team so gradually, that most of us didn't even notice. I dunno, but did it start when a certain player came back to the team?

WHarris1 Posted June 30, 2005 Share Posted June 30, 2005 I wish Dimitri could play for every team we play against this season. 2 down - HUGE out right here, don't let Pudge walk this s*** off Viz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted June 30, 2005 Share Posted June 30, 2005 The thing is, Frank should have never been playing tonight if Ozzie is planning on playing him only 2 out of every 3 games in a series. With the soft-tossing lefty tomorrow, Frank was a much better match-up than against Johnson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capn12 Posted June 30, 2005 Author Share Posted June 30, 2005 QUOTE(GreatScott82 @ Jun 29, 2005 -> 09:59 PM) on you- Frank is washed up. He takes waaayyy too many pitches. We dont need him Frank takes way too many pitches? I am boggled. We b**** when our hitters don't take pitches, we b**** when Frank takes too many pitches. Tell me, baseball gurus...what is the exact number of pitches each hitter is supposed to take? Is there a specific number? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get me wrong, Frank is easily the best Sox player ever. However, he's SOOO one-dimensional now, and that one dimenson was something that we didn't really need on this team (if anything, something we needed less of).

I'm not b****ing. Frank pretty much said that he's trying to hit a HR everytime up now. And it's well know that that's because he wants to get to 500. And I don't know if he's drawing walks at the same pace. Maybe. I don't know the numbers. It seems like he's passed up on a chance to take some walks this year though when trying to jack the ball.
