caulfield12 Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Apr 27, 2007 -> 08:17 PM) Honestly, that means next to nothing. We got shut down by Cy Durbin, and Erstad did not drive in all 16 runs against the Royals (some people didn't think we should mention the positive offensive because it was the Royals.) It all comes down to Konerko and Crede pulling out of their slumps, it looks like Dye is slowly coming around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 QUOTE(Jordan4life_2007 @ Apr 28, 2007 -> 01:18 AM) Well, the one they brought back was hitting over .300 with a .387 OBP before he got hurt. I don't know why I always take the bait. Who else exactly was Kenny supposed to sign? He's the type of guy who can't stay healthy. How many times can a "speed" player pull a muscle in the leg area before you give up on him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsideirish71 Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 Dye has has put 2 good swings on 2 balls. One was a hang wiff 'em. One was a dong. Konerko had a good swing on the first ball, it was a hang wiff'em. Now AJ turns on a high fastball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cintron is our DH If so, Eduardo Perez should already be on a plane to Chicago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Apr 28, 2007 -> 01:16 AM) Oh come on. Pods has been much better than expected. If you're going to fault KW for anything offensively related it HAS to be giving Erstad to Ozzie to overplay. It's amazing that I get singled out for this comment, as it's been all over this board for two weeks now. I know Tony absolutely agrees that KW is at fault for bringing back Pods with his injury history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Tony absolutely agrees that KW is at fault for bringing back Pods with his injury history. It's having both Pods and Erstad on the roster. They're waaaay too similar to be on the same team. I'd take Erstad just because he can play multiple spots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the negative side of things, the Indians just scored 5 and look to be heading for 6 games over .500. But at least the Twins and Tigers are beating up on each other for awhile.

Trot Nixon's been brought up multiple times. He would've been a great one year fit. Also, keeping Eduardo Perez on the roster and just having an Ozuna/Mackowiak platoon out there would've been pretty much equal to giving Pods $3 million.

Nixon's declining physically...and injury-prone. He's just as risky as Pods or Thome. And Mackowiak and Ozuna as a leadoff platoon just doesn't quite do it in terms of putting enough pressure on opposing pitchers. If you get Nixon, where is he going to play? He's not a natural LF, and I don't think anyone is quite ready to make Dye a full-time DH. Or we're supposed to know that Thome AND Pods will get injured, so we can acquire Nixon just in case...? Like we had McCarthy as insurance for one of our starters going down? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
