% Runs from HR (Running totals)

Not sure if mods want to move this somewhere, but I wanted to keep a log of what % of our runs come from HR over the season. Hopefully I can update this at least once a week so I won't have to spend 20 minutes looking through boxscores again.....

That's becaus Ozzie and Kenny (maybe just Oz) don't believe in OBP but speed and grinders instead.

No, it's because the guys that should be putting up decent OBP...Beckham, Pierre, Quentin...have been garbage.

We are what we are: a home run hitting franchise.

Get some more big boppers, Oz. Earl Weaver loved the home run. We love the home run. Screw blah-zie ball. Give me home runs!!!

They wanted to stop relying so much on the Homer. Seems like they forgot one thing though. They have to score runs another way!

 

Its kind of hard to score runs without a HR when most of your lineup isn't hitting their weight in BA. No one gets on base, no hits get stacked together. Hell we got CQ and AJP hitting like .160 a piece, back to back in the heart of the lineup. No wonder we have trouble scoring runs. It seems like for a lot of our hitters WHEN IT RAINS, IT POURS. But the answer to so far to why does our offensive suck seems to be more closely related to their all hitting like garbage at the same time instead of they all aren't capable of being good to begin with. So at least thats good.

It's not a bad offense, it's a TERRIBLE offense.

 

Yeah, if Quentin and AJ continue to hit .150 for the rest of the year... and if Beckham can't hit above .220 on the season... then you're right... it will continue to be a terrible offense.

 

But if guys simply hit their career averages, then this will be a league average offense.

 

Nothing special, but not awful either.

The problem isn't Ozzie Ball, that's for another debate (whether they should be moving from a home run team to a more balanced lineup given their ballpark)....Look at the batting averages througout the lineup - no style of ball is really going to work with the struggles so many of their hitters have had.

The converse of this is that the two guys carrying us mostly are Jones/Konerko, and history tells us that both will experience significant slumps at some point during the year. And Konerko is clearly not going to stay his pace.
