Dick Allen Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 13, 2005 -> 06:37 PM) Is that Timo's nickname or something? No its how Ozzie pronounces Sushi. His nickname for Timo is Sucki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Aug 14, 2005 -> 12:38 AM) Joe Crede is batting .100 in the month of August. Yes .100. Dye is batting a lovely .211. I think he has gone critical again. Pods is batting .190 As a team we are batting .231 in the month of August. Our OBP is now .298. I wonder why we have been having problems scoring runs. Yet we don't need offensive help according to Hawk! The scary thing about our offensive struggles is that Iguchi and PK, as well as AJP, have been terrific the last month or so.

The scary thing about our offensive struggles is that Iguchi and PK, as well as AJP, have been terrific the last month or so. I have seen teams where a guy or two get cold. But not entire groups of our players at once. This is mays offensive struggles all over again. Hopefully they pick up someone. Or we are toast in the playoffs.

fathom Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 Ok, I'm ready to get bashed for being negative, but am I the only one who feels like we're just trying to survive the rest of the season with our lead? In a way, we're playing not to lose? I just get the sense that Ozzie is praying we can just coast the rest of the way without it becoming a race.

Hawk is silent again tonight on his "where would he play" BS regarding Griffey. He actually started popping that off in a game Timo was batting fifth as a DH.

quickman Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 13, 2005 -> 07:38 PM) Am I the only one who thinks the Yankees will win the Wild Card over the Angels? Fathom what is really scary as I look at your posts is that we think exactly alike. I think the Yankees will come on, but despite that, I think we do not have the depth to go along way in the playoffs. New York in playoff time is different than regular season, so is boston. Did I mention we need Griffey. Thought so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He actually started popping that off in a game Timo was batting fifth as a DH. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> And if they got him he'd sing a different tune. He is, after all, an employee of the White Sox.

They hit well in June and July. And now they cant hit in August. In June and July they had this guy named Thomas that got on base, and got the guys behind him some better pitches to hit.
