DonkeyKongerko Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 Thome's short appearance at the Cell in '04 showed me he still loves hitting there: G AB R H 2B 3B HR RBI BB K SB CS AVG OBP SLG OPS 3 14 5 5 0 0 4 10 1 3 0 0 .357 .400 1.214 1.614 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreatScott82 Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 Yeah this guy is pumped! He seems like a team player. It was funny when he said: "Pauly PLEASE COME BACK!" lol I think he wants the Pauly-Thome combo as much as we do. What do you guys think the motto will be in '06 if we get another speedy guy for the 2 hole? 'SPEED + POWER= Many runs!' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty solid #s. Lets see in 58 games here he hit .286 with 18 HR and 50 RBIs. In 81 home games that translates to approxiamately 25 HR and 70 RBIs. If you add that to his road stats and he stays healthy JT can easily hit 40 HR and 130-140 RBIs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyyle23 Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 (edited) Apparently the Cleveland Plain Dealer feels jilted Given his choice, Jim Thome would have preferred to be playing for the Indians next year. The Indians considered it before Philadelphia traded Thome to the White Sox. Here's what the Phillies asked for when they met with the Indians at the general managers meetings in early November: outfielder Coco Crisp, top pitching prospect Charles Lofgren and another prospect. -- Cleveland Plain Dealer found this quote on MLB rumors and truths on SI.com Edited November 28, 2005 by kyyle23 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
