Dye could not be screwing over this team any more than he currently has. And in about every conceivable way. His outfield speed is embarrassing, and his lack of offense is costing everyone from the team down to the money he'll receive next season.

 

Hell, add in the fact if he doesn't rebound respectably (>.250avg, 70+rbis, 20+HRs) he'll cost the White Sox type A compensation. He may hurt his value midseason if the Sox are out of contention, as well.

 

Talk about a worst case scenario with a player. This is it.

 

He'll end up putting up some decent power numbers, but it would do us no good if it's late in the season and we're out of contention.

Well, the worst-case would have been if KW tore up this year's contract and signed him for $45 million over 3 years before the season started.

 

Sweeney and Mackowiak should both be playing the corners at this point.

It almost looks like he caught some disease and forgot how to play baseball. He reminds me of Harold Baines in his last half year before he retired. He truly looks like a corpse out there.

Konerko and Crede still suck.

 

Royals figuring every way possible to play just bad enough to beat themselves every game so far against us. They suck more.

Haha no. Not against Sweeney with the tying run on base you dont.

 

Thorton is more than just a lefty specialist. I'm just sayin he was throwin the ball good. I would have left him in.

 

Way to go Bobby!!

The offense is showing signs of life? DJ stop smoking crack. One solo homer, and a few gift errors by the Royals doesnt speak to showing signs of life. thank god our pitching has been great. Greg Walker should be unemployed right now.

IS it really too much to ask to win a game 9 to 0 periodically?

 

It doesnt matter, when we win games like that people are just gonna b**** about Corpseball being all or nothing. Winning close games are more important than blowing people out, although blowouts are more fun to watch

Ummm, no. He's not even a LH specialist this year, lefties are hitting well over .300 against him, which is his primary job.

 

He showed some good velocity, but Jenks and Thornton both throw too straight to get away with it if the location's bad.
