CWSGuy406 Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 22, 2007 -> 08:25 PM) Anxiously awaiting Pratt's post in 3....2....1..... Not Floyd's fault Toby Hall can't throw. It doesn't help that Floyd is slow to the plate, but I don't think Hall could throw out Konerko at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't help that Floyd is slow to the plate, but I don't think Hall could throw out Konerko at this point. Hall's been a total bust. I have my doubts he'll ever be close to the player he was before we signed him. Everything about him looks bad, from his game calling to his swing to his throwing. But, on the bright side, at least he has experience at first base now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jasonxctf Posted August 22, 2007 Author Share Posted August 22, 2007 Juan Uribe right in his over-rated mouth. But then Juan (or his co-horts) would pull a gun on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CWSGuy406 Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Floyd's looking a heckuva lot better in relief. I'd like to see that fastball a tick or two faster, but he's showing some good movement in. He's not hanging as many pitches as when he was starting.

joejoesox Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 so have any of you guys noticed any holes/weaknesses in fields swing that would allow the league to catch up to him next year, that would severely hurt his power numbers? or will his raw talent be enough?

elrockinMT Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Myers and Floyd give up three runs in relief and we lose 7-6. Konerko couldn't get it done against some KC pitcher in the 9th. Maybe KW picked up the wrong KC reliever? If Contreras could just quit giving up runs early we might see him win a game. Field swith a 3 run homer and I think he might win the PTC. I took Thome on Tuesday and Fields today so I am thinking I have a chnce to get a couple of clickie wins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But is one of our best with runners in scoring position. Figure that out. It's actually fairly simple. Close and late...he has a whopping 36 at bats coming into today. You take any .250 hitter and look at enough subsets of 36 at bats, and you'll find several where he's below .200. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
