Flash Tizzle Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 Watching the replay, Thomas didn't appear to run the bases well. Hobbling a bit. You wonder how long it will be until troubles resume. Unless he only trots around the bases following HR's it won't be a problem, but anything less he'll have to actually sprint, stop/start quickly on the basepaths.

I'd still rather have Thome though. He's a bit younger and I think he will stay healthier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are right about the home runs counting the same though. point taken on Johnson, as far as cabrera the jurys still out imo. So far though, Frank was the only one to get past 1st base on Johnson.

Id take Frank over Thome on what it took to get Thome. Also considering salary. But, if Thome and Frank were fa's , and I had a choice between the 2 at the same price , I would take Thome over Frank.

iguchi=dank Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 Frank looks as well as he could have hoped for but if anyone else was watching didn't it seem like he was grimicing often and had a slight limp.. even though he was trying to really to be aggresive and stomp the ground alot. All that aside i'm not a huge oakland fan and think its funny the yankees are mauling them when everyone and their mom think oakland is the s*** when all anyone should look at is the white sox because of the rotation. But Go Frank and get to 500 and beyone so your a sure HOF but don't be so damn snotty like we made some mistake. any posts welcome. if not thats cool too its more of an observational post.

He got spiked in the finger by Robinson Cano on a stolen base. I think he cut his index finger open because he had it out of his glove when he was catching the ball, and Cano slid right into the back of Crosbys glove. It might keep him out of the lineup a few days, but I dont think it is much more than a cut to the index finger on his catching hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSH2005 Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 I think Billy Beane is finding out that he can't just throw any starter into the bullpen (Kirk Saarloos, Brad Halsey, and probably Joe Kennedy as well). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
