I'm almost willing to say, at this point, and it pains me to think it, that Pods couldn't do any worse than our current rotation of AAAA stars and never-will-be's in CF...

TheBigHurt Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 (edited) The Pods era is coming soon...we need a Y2Jericho-esque countdown. It's sad, too... Pods getting on with a walk and even stealing a base (maybe even TWO) won't help anyone bring him in...

fathom Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 QUOTE (TheBigHurt @ Apr 17, 2009 -> 02:28 AM) I remember it constantly being discussed how dangerous a combination Dye-Thome-Konerko can make in the lineup. It also has to be one of the (if not THE) slowest 1-2-3 punches in the entire MLB. Those guys aren't the issue...the issue with our offense is that our leadoff position is 3-34 this season, and our CF position has been worthless.

Yeah, but what difference does it make who our leadoff hitter is when we simply cannot hit (out of the f***ing infield, at least) with RISP? I mean, seriously. I don't think having Grady Sizemore or anyone else you can think of leading off for us would make that much of a difference.
