fathom Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 (edited) QUOTE(Greg The Bull Luzinski @ Jun 7, 2007 -> 01:38 AM) Three are other AL Central Teams are consumed in plane crashes. Yeah, but their minor league teams might give us a run for our money. QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Jun 7, 2007 -> 01:39 AM) The only chip we have is Buerhle. Thats it. Dye???? Trading an aged, bad defensive power hitter who isnt hitting doesnt reap the large bevy of prospects. A good GM could get value for Dye still. However, if we wait another month and he's hitting .225 with 15 homers, we're not going to get anything good in return. It's painfully obvious he's lost a step. He's also my PTGODLN (Pick to go on DL next). Edited June 7, 2007 by fathom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxFanForever Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 6, 2007 -> 08:37 PM) I honestly can't fathom how this team has any chance at the playoffs. At least Fields gives me something to look forward to every 3rd inning. You are quite the comedian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsideirish71 Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 A walk, and the next guy puts the first pitch he sees in play. This in a nutshell is why this team cant score runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking of Marte, he would be our best pitcher in the bullpen this year...yikes 1.45 ERA 18.2 innings 8 walks 19 K's 14 hits 1.18 WHIP Not that he would have those numbers with us, but his numbers surprised me when I looked at them the other day.

They have bad pitching, but they can still hit. The game still requires you to score at least one more run than the other team. I thought they said we scored 3 or less run in 24 games this year.
