Heads22 Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Jul 22, 2007 -> 04:14 PM) As you said, Eggs still needs to get on the 40 man(not very difficult), Eggs is still at AA, and the Sox have seemed to be stingy in promotions this season. I just think everything points to Floyd. Will see. Yeah, I would think it would be Floyd too, but a man can dream. KW was asked about Gio and Russ the other day in an interview on Barons.com and he made a point to commend Egbert, so he seemingly knows he exists. Come on Pauly.

We've discussed this a million times....we're talking about 9th inning production, or if the game goes into extras. I know his stats were awful last year in those situations, and I don't remember a single hit he had in the 9th this season when tied or down a few.

joejoesox Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 bases loaded, 0 outs = no runs we ARE the worst team in baseball, no other team does that as much as we do, period major league talent doesn't load up the bases repeatedly all year, and more often than not walk away with zero runs, absolutely pathetic i dunno if i can watch anymore games this year, its too frustrating anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In all seriousness, if you could choose one guy on this team to get a clutch hit for you right now, who would it be? Right now I'd say Konerko, but Thome would definitely be number two for me. Ever since the LA walkoff game in 2005, all AJ does in close-and-late spots is swing for the fences -- he seemingly only comes through when we play the Cubs -- and while Jermaine is coming around, I don't think I'd put him above Thome.

I'd list Konerko, then Dye, then Iguchi, and then Thome. Dye seems to get those liners up the middle quite often in late, clutch situations. I thought it was interesting how few homers Thome hits from the 6th inning on this year. I'd want Thome leading off an inning in which we needed a run, as he's the most likely to draw a walk.

elrockinMT Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 I watched the game on WGN. All I can say is we had a chance to win, but the bottom line is when the Red Sox had to perform in the clutch, or take advantage of Chisox mistakes, they did and we didn't take advantage of their's. Very dissapointing, and I know it was for Thome and Konerko also, that they couldn't come through with the bags packed. Twice for Konerko. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmoskos23 Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 The worst part about this season is that Kenny Williams and Ozzie still believe in this team, even guys like Uribe, Terreo, and A Gonzalez. It's horse maneure!! Lets get some real prospects up here if we're gonna finish in last place this year and see what we got! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richar and Sweeney should both be up here, imo. I'm not ready to hand either of them a spot on next years team but at least we can get some idea if either of them are ready.

Guest Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 we are currently sitting with the 8th overall draft pick in next year's draft. that's not nearly good enough for having to sit through this crap season. the good news is we're only a few more losses from a top 5 pick. and given how weak our interleague schedule was, and how difficult the 2nd half schedule is, we should have that great draft pick next season. i just hope we use it on some middle infielders, perhaps an OF with some pop.
