whitesoxfan101 Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 In the last 26 games, Gordon has three multi hit games (2 hits each time) and 2 walks. Absolutely mashing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamshack Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 3, 2010 -> 08:54 PM) How in the hell can we not hit this pitcher? Also, I don't think it's possible for Viciedo to hit an inside fastball with authority. Once again, another Sox prospect with a huge hole in his swing.

I have no idea what our instructors do in the minors besides play cards and feed. They obviously don't fix mechanical issues, an they sure as hell don't instruct how to play baseball.

fathom Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Beckham is the biggest bust in all of baseball this season. Unfortunately, there's absolutely no guarantee he turns it around. It's times like this I wish we had someone different as our hitting coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, there's absolutely no guarantee he turns it around. It's times like this I wish we had someone different as our hitting coach. I think it's pretty clear he has major confidence problems. I'm not sure letting him continue to fail here is doing him any good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Sorry shack, for someone reason my reply button isn't working. You can just tell by Viciedo's swing that he cannot get the bat head out in time for inside fastballs. If it's outside, he can mash it. I'd love to know where his home runs went in AAA this season, by direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitesoxfan101 Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Our top 4 guys in the pen have been outstanding, particularly lately. But man, everybody else....yikes. Although we're certainly not alone in having just horrific 10th, 11th, and 12th pitches on the staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 That's true 101, but we've spent a lot of resources on Linebrink and Pena, which makes it disappointing to have them become worthless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jphat007 Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Don't want to hear how awesome Tony Pena is anymore. He's solid when the team is 9 games out, but that's about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I respect your opinion Fath, but there are a whole lot of other people saying the kid is going to hit...I'm sure he has some flaws to fix, but he's 21 (allegedly). Let's hope he can tighten them up.

Exactly, that's what makes our issue at that part of the bullpen particularly painful. That was bad right there by us being willing to trade the 2 outs for 1 run. We simply can't afford to do that with this offense, particularly with only 6 outs left and already being down a couple beforehand.
