DrunkBomber Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 QUOTE (Sox It To Em @ Sep 27, 2008 -> 06:58 PM) This team doesn't believe in stringing walks and hits together. Home runs, baby! Two things that can help you understand the 2008 White Sox. Chicks dig the long ball and a short fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 The White Sox have to get more speed next year, and will need a lead off guy. They need to keep power. You need power at USCF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrunkBomber Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 Maybe we should sign Usein Bolt and lead him off? They do it in football and he cant be any worse at getting on base then some of the guys we got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They need to keep power. You need power at USCF. It seems like we've been talking about adding a lead off guy every year. Other than Pods in 05, we've never had a lead off guy. My guess we won't end up with anybody good at that position. I don't think Williams has much flexibility in improving this team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friend of Nordhagen Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Sep 27, 2008 -> 08:00 PM) The White Sox have to get more speed next year, and will need a lead off guy. They need to keep power. You need power at USCF. I think that's the attitude that's gotten them into trouble. It's not a big park, so why not get guys who have a line drive approach? With the small park, a lot of those line drives will go out anyway. But more importantly, the team is less likely to slump and will be better on the road. A good example of building wisely with that kind of park is the Phillies. Yes, they have Burrell and Howard, but the rest of their lineup is filled with guys like Victorino, Rollins and Utley, all line-drive hitters. And they hit plenty of home runs. The Sox are not alone in falling prey to the idea that a small park means you need power. But I have never understood why teams in smaller parks feel like they have to get big thumpers up and down their lineup -- home runs will come in these places WITHOUT going for power guys.
