Gregory Pratt Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 Heads said yesterday that he won't be here today, so the gamethread's up for everyone. I see that yesterday's thread is still up, so I thought I'd start up today's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 QUOTE(BearSox @ May 12, 2007 -> 05:12 PM) I thought about doing today, but I'm bad mojo. I think we're ready to platoon Erstad/Terrero and Sweeney should be playing every day, except for against the toughest lefties. He's too young to be a platoon player, and he hits righties (at least this year) worse than lefties statistically (not sure about historically).

BearSox Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 tonights lineup: Erstad, CF Uribe, SS - he's been doing okay, I guess, but 2? Pierzynski, C Konerko, 1B Dye, RF Mack, DH Crede, 3B Iguchi, 2B Sweeney, LF - yahoo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capn12 Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 Uribe has one of the best approaches at the plate right now, can't hurt to try him in the 2 hole. Gooch is swinging his bat through mud right now, he is superslow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RME JICO Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 AJ batting 3rd, might as well at this point. Nice to see Sweeney back in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shipps Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 This sux because when Iam at work like this during a game I depend on the game thread to update me on what the hell is going on.But this lack of activity is very dissappointing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 So freaking sick of Iguchi's at-bats. Erstad needs to hit that ball in the air there. It's too bad we couldn't take advantage of the Royals trying to let us blow them out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Tizzle Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 (edited) It may be my imagination, but there appeared to be something different about Sweeney's swing his last AB. I'll have to pay closer attention his next time up. From first glance, his three swings just didn't look right.

It's too bad we couldn't take advantage of the Royals trying to let us blow them out. F***ing Erstad... Sweeney has a nice AB as Elarton wasn't giving anything to him, and Erstad goes and does that. Erstad sure is great at those 6-4-3, 6-3 and 4-3 putouts. Reminds me of our post ASB CF in 2005. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A hitting coach that shall remain nameless better be working with our power hitters not hitting, and not trying to elongate and f*** up another swing.

CWSGuy406 Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 Erstad's OPS now sits at .640. Of course, he'll bunt a runner over next week and drive in a run on a 1-for-4 night, and everyone will be gah-gah over him again. We need a CFer. Let's let Erstad play in a role he'd be perfectly acceptable in as the 4th OFer, and hopefully Kenny can get the Sox a real CFer by July. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
