fathom Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 QUOTE(shawnhillegas @ Sep 16, 2006 -> 09:52 PM) anyone else worried that thome might be mediocre next year? I'm not sure if he'll be mediocre....but I think he's going to have to be very lucky to match his numbers from this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Sep 16, 2006 -> 09:54 PM) He needs to have a great winter. Rest up, get healthy. That will be the best thing for him. It might not be the worst idea for next year to give Thome 1, 2 days off a week. Keep him fresh for the whole season. I would love for the Sox to get a righty bat for the bench who they can play against the tough lefties like C.C., Santana, etc. (even though Thome's done well vs Santana this year).

southsideirish71 Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Sep 16, 2006 -> 04:52 PM) You know...back when we had Ordonez/Thomas, any time they'd walk Thomas to get to Ordonez, you just knew Magglio was going to crush the ball solely because he didn't like being shown up by the intentional walk. Ordonez and Thomas has nice line drive swings. Ordonez and Thomas hit the ball gap to gap. Its hard to beat that with RISP. Thome is Rob Deer, pull and lift and hope for the carry. He may dong you, but more often than not he will K or popup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It probably wouldn't have been a bad idea to just pencil in a day off per week for Thome this season, but we didn't do it. The only guy we give that much rest to is our center fielder...cause you know, we're gonna dominate winterball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsideirish71 Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 Obviously Fox Sports crew, its not about did we win, its about do they have it on tap is what Ozzie is worried about. We lost, bartender pour me a cold one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Tizzle Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 (edited) Why can't Dye have the success against Oakland that Thomas has had against us? In the backdrop of the comments our organization has made towards Frank, it's only fitting he'd kill us. Another embarrassment this team has provided us.
