Even more fun, how about we use OPS+: ERSTAD 85 OZUNA 29 DYE 102 KONERKO 76 IGUCHI 98 CREDE 45 CINTRON -6 SWEENEY 30 MOLINA -100 So s***ty.

TitoMB345 Posted May 6, 2007 Share Posted May 6, 2007 QUOTE(WHarris1 @ May 6, 2007 -> 02:06 PM) -100 Thats impressive It's also the bare minimum He's only had 8 ABs and no hits, so he has a 0 OPS (and consequently a -100 OPS+). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briguy27 Posted May 6, 2007 Share Posted May 6, 2007 holy god, i feel sick now. molina and cintron are like automatic outs. and crede should be 5th and iguchi 6th. oh well, lets hope my pick to click (konerko) comes alive. im gonna predict 2 homers, 5 rbis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, for reference sake, let's look at their OPS+ career: ERSTAD 96 [-11] (below average) OZUNA 79 [-50] (well below average) DYE 110 [-8] (above average) KONERKO 116 [-40] (above average) Iguchi 100 [-2] (exactly average) CREDE 93 [-48] (below average) CINTRON 82 [-88] (well below average) Sweeney 21 [+8] (disgustingly below average) MOLINA -100 [N/A] (as I said before, 0-for-8, so obviosuly, ROCK BOTTOM) The people in CAPS are the ones that are hitting so far below their career numbers that is sick. The ones in normal script are the ones who are near, at, or above their career numbers (but mostly below), as can be seen by the +/- tally in the brackets. Not looking good. Law of averages says they will eventually turn it around... Here's to hoping it starts today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg The Bull Luzinski Posted May 6, 2007 Share Posted May 6, 2007 SHould have kept the mojo going with yesterday's line up for a second day. With Molina (assuming he exists) replacing A.J.'s red hot bat, we have aready lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BearSox Posted May 6, 2007 Share Posted May 6, 2007 Sweeney and Molina back-to-back is a deadly combo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted May 6, 2007 Share Posted May 6, 2007 QUOTE(WHarris1 @ May 6, 2007 -> 07:05 PM) Not sure what you really could have expected though. I just don't know how KW can sit back and think this lineup is acceptable. I'm sure he'll say he's shocked when Thome and Pods try to return and either aren't as effective due to overcoming the injury or they re-injure themselves right away.

Greg The Bull Luzinski Posted May 6, 2007 Share Posted May 6, 2007 Molina is going 4 for 4 today with 5 homers. He will homer twice in one at bat. Then Ozzie will put him back on the bench for the rest of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BearSox Posted May 6, 2007 Share Posted May 6, 2007 Only if we Terrero DH'ing. We could have the best 7-8-9 hitter trio ever thinkable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You add Thome, AJP and Uribe to that lineup and its still pretty deadly, its too bad for injuries and a day off for our catcher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is you can't assume that Hall will be able to return to catching...so you can't play AJ every single game. If Hall is a DH against lefties (to rest Thome), you still need to rest AJ somehow. The unfortunate thing is that it looks likely we'll be 5 GB after today, heading into a showdown at Minnesota (where we apparently won't face Santana, finally a break). CLE and DET are both going to win their games. Edited May 6, 2007 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same time Konerko and Crede do, I would guess. It's telling that Iguchi is hitting 5th in this line-up. Nice slow slider from Buehrle...more of a slurve.
