Metz Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 28, 2008 -> 08:31 PM) You know what I don't get....why isn't Uribe starting today? The Sox organization always talks about how he can carry a team when hot, and he seems to be hitting pretty good lately. Also, he had success in the past against Slowey, IIRC. Also, why did Ozzie let Javy pitch to Miguel Cabrera with an open base yesterday? Oh well, this team has to play better, end of story. Needed to get something off your chest? haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 29, 2008 -> 01:31 AM) If you really believe Swisher would have continued his hot streak if he remained at first base, you are crazier than I thought. He's 0 for his last 15 with 6 k's. If Konerko shouldn't be playing, neither should he. Sorry to say, he's been a huge dissappointment. Nick Swisher has been a huge bust. The only thing I've been impressed with by him is his defense at 1st base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Chappas Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 28, 2008 -> 07:28 PM) SO did Geoff Blum lets go get him. Stop living in the past, this Konerko is hitting for less power than OC. Neither Konerko or Swisher should be getting the free pass that they are. The thing about Swisher is he cost the Sox a player that is doing better than he is plus to pitchers one of which wold look good on the trtade market right now. The money I am not concerned about. This team's defense is really bad right now, not that I am tellign anyone anything new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are just behind Texas for most errors committed. s***ty defense + homer only offense + pitching starting to get into a funk = usual PASB Whitesox Baseball Catch the fever.

Dick Allen Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jul 28, 2008 -> 08:31 PM) Konerko has 2 walks since coming off the DL. Swish has 15 in that time frame. Wow, a guy with 6 career steals whose biggest offensive weapon is a walk. Face it, if Konerko or Thome performed the exact same way Swisher has, the vultures would be calling for their releases. For some reason Swisher gets a huge pass on this board, just like Vazquez, although the tide is starting to turn on Javy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't argue with the numbers, but it just seems that Nick has way better ABs than Paulie, even when he makes outs, which is obviously more often than not. We are also better defensively with Swish at 1B and BA in center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are also better defensively with Swish at 1B and BA in center. Because Swisher sees a lot of pitches per at bat, which gets him a lot of walks, I see your point.

IlliniKrush Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Go f*** yourself Hawk. You are a coward. Just the biggest whiner and excuse maker ever. He would make for one hell of a s***ty baseball coach, could you imagine? No one can every play or pitch over anything. Concentrate on something else and inform the viewers the reason we're down 5-0. Hint: Not one f***ing call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
