RockRaines Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Hoping to bring good karma to Paulie's bat and get his head out of his ass!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 I just want him to go up to the plate and swing as hard as he can on 3 pitches, and if he misses all of them, he sits down. I'm sick of this s*** he's doing at the plate by trying to guide it to right field. He ends up fouling off very hittable pitches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heads22 Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 I'm rarely ever this hard on one of our players, but he's an utter f***ing joke at the plate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will have to carry the Karma thing over to Tuesday night. 0-4 with a GIDP and a K wasn't positive. Bur, I am with you for Tuesday if we want to try again with the Karma stuff?

greg775 Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 We can not survive with Paul as our full time 1st baseman. We also cannot survive with our starters pitching like this, with Swisher sucking at the plate and playing a very mediocre D in center field, with OC not playing like he did when we were red hot. Paulie may suck but he's not the only one of late. Personally I'd bat him eighth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing to wish for a player to be replaced. It another to wish physical harm to a player. Stay Classy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's real nice. Karma will get you. What is it about Swisher's .226 average that excites you so much? Its only .013 better than Paulie. That's a little more than 1 more hit per 100 AB.

He is right that Swisher is just as useless. He is wrong to keep defending Konerko. PK and Swish are the worst back to back combo in baseball. We need a change and now!!!

earthshiner Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 well let's see something positive about Paulie, hmm, uh *scratches head* well without having to run the basses or run out weak ass grounders he should be well rested for tomorrows game.

Frankensteiner Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Swisher and Konerko have both been awful but at least Swisher has put together a decent month making you think he's got a pulse. Swisher has been more disappointing though because he was supposed to be one of our core guys for the future. Q's been a revelation but we still have very few quality players under 30 (Q, Jenks, Alexei, Buehrle, Danks, and Floyd). Anyway, going back to Konerko, this made me chuckle (from Mark Gonzalez's mailbag): It seems like Paul Konerko has lost a lot of weight this year. Am I imagining this? If I'm not, is it intentional, or is he ill? --Sox Sider, Chicago I asked him about this three weeks ago, and he said he hadn't noticed. I'm as curious as you are. http://chicagosports.chicagotribune.com/sp...1,5299442.story Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paulie may suck but he's not the only one of late. Personally I'd bat him eighth. Nail on the head with that one. We can't win having to come from behind every game and pitchers giving up 5 plus runs a game. But, it will get better I do believe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubba Philips Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Dick Allen is right and wrong. He is right that Swisher is just as useless. He is wrong to keep defending Konerko. PK and Swish are the worst back to back combo in baseball. We need a change and now!! I know that paulie is the captain of our team Swish is suppose to bring team spirit into the sox dugout.. Now with paulie in a slump and Swish not hitting and a manager and general manager who can't inspire or make changes . We might just have to content ourselves with third place in our division just ahead of cleveland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
