I have an odd feeling it's going to get a whole lot uglier too... I'm not talking Rangers/Red Sox ugly, but still, I think it will get brutal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxbrian Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 I know the Aflac Trivia Question- Bart Johnson. I believe he was something like 12-11 with 15 saves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 Not to bag on Thome, but he talks about wanting to win a WS before he's done. You got to come through in situations he failed in on his last at bat if he truly wants a WS. He needed to drive in those 2 runs and didn't. Dye and CQ can't do it all.

SoxFan562004 Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 How old is Alex Gordon? It's his full second year if I'm not mistaken, has he shown some potential? (Sorry, I don't watch a ton of KC baseball) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to go out on a limb and assume this game will not be the last time he has an RBI opportunity for the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Sorry, I don't watch a ton of KC baseball) Great question. I forget his age, it's 25 or 26 I believe. He was at Nebraska 3 years, but it's been a big discussion in KC. If he is to be a star, the analysts say, he needs to have shown more than he has so far. He's been a mild disappointment. If he fails to break out next year he may be officially just another decent player instead of an all star type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George Brett claimed Gordon is better then he was at Gordon's age. He has a good OBP (.355ish) but his BA leaves something to be desired. He's going to be a pain in the behinds for us for many years.

I'm saying a hit there is key and breaks open maybe a game against a s***ty team. If he wants a WS he needs to shorten his swing and poke a hit there. It was a big at bat and a big failure of an at bat. Dye came through; he f***ed up. It all adds up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalapse Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 81 pitches through 4 for Lance. If he can give us 1 more scoreless inning then get him the hell out of there, his start will have been a complete success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
