Chisoxfn Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 12, 2008 -> 05:24 PM) He's not skilled enough at that art to do that. Just like Pods, he's the one guy I just want to swing hard and try to pull it. Crede is very skilled at flipping the bat out on the ball and going up the middle/rf. He's done that numerous times when he's been healthy the past couple seasons. Well I shouldn't say very skilled, but he's pretty solid at it (Frank was amazing at it in his prime).

Wouldn't you say that was his 2 strike swing? Tonight, he's been doing that on the first pitch and forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalapse Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jul 12, 2008 -> 08:24 PM) Danks just around 95 pitches. ERA of 2.52 coming in, the same right now. His ERA would be 2.45 if the official scorer was at all competent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 Thome's bat speed is gone. He is done. He is the worst hitter in baseball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonight, he's been doing that on the first pitch and forward. When you've been doing what Joe has been doing (which is pulling his hands through the zone way to quickly and thus making him an easy out with anything middle and away) the quickest way to getting back on track is to stay back on the ball and just work it to right field. I'm thrilled to see him doing what he is doing because it means we are about to see a very good stretch out of Joe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 QUOTE (Maxwell @ Jul 13, 2008 -> 02:30 AM) Hell yes. Do you even have that sig anymore, fathom? No, I got rid of it a month ago. It was difficult to keep track of, as I would have to look up that stat on my own. Also, OC and Thome were playing well, so I figured my pep talk worked.

Chisoxfn Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 I like the Jim Thome we've seen as of late. He's using all fields and making me look like an idiot (keep on doing it Jimmy, keep on doing it). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
