How deep into the season must we get before there is actually a real chance that Walker is fired?

 

We could be 30-132 and Walker would not be fired. I am so confident that Walker will not be fired that I will change by name to Penis if he is fired during the season.

It won't happen....they'll use the injury excuse. If we're going to suck on offense this much, at least there's a chance we can trade Dye at the deadline.

Not saying Walker has done a good job, but the talent in the lineup is probably the worst in the American League. This specific lineup fields five (!) below average hitters (Sweeney, Erstad, Uribe, Cintron, Mackowiak), two average hitters who are playing below average (Pierz, Crede) and two good-to-very-good hitters who haven't gotten going yet (Dye, Konerko).

 

This is an awful lineup and no hitting coach would make a difference.

It's obvious the book on Jenks and Thornton is to swing at the first pitch straight fastball. Never in a million years did I think Wood would make contact against Jenks.

That's the book on every pitcher. Cooper preaches "throwing strikes," which is good when you off an ability to locate offspeed pitches and throw them at any count over the plate.

You and I must have been the only people watching this team during the 2nd half last year.

 

 

Hey Bobby.....stop throwing first pitch fastballs at 95 mph.

AJP seems to get stupider every game.

Sometime when I head to the library in a bit I'm going to go on baseball-reference and see how many runs the Sox have averaged since August of 2006. I'd say it's gotta be under 4.5.

Once again, confidence in our softer-throwing, fat-body closer is declining.

 

I've never seen so many players have their velocity drops. The sooner this whole coaching staff is gone, the better.
