elgonzo4sox Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 QUOTE (chw42 @ Jun 26, 2011 -> 02:02 PM) Ozzie has to drop Dunn down to 7th or 8th. He's killing rallies. Maybe this will be the game that finally gets this concept through Ozzie's thick head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 26, 2011 -> 03:05 PM) There is no as bad as Dunn right now. And it'd be hard to find worse in the last 20 years. No hyperbole. Yeah, that's pretty much hyperbole defined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 That pitch was basically a strike. Bad start to this inning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxfest Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 (edited) QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 26, 2011 -> 02:03 PM) I'd feel bad for him if he were a Ranger. Or A Mariner. Or a Rockie. Millions of dollars to play a GAME feel sorry for people who really need it like kids who go to bed hungry not millionaire ball players.

I could see Beckham being sent down for Viciedo. And Viciedo takes over 2b? Come on fathom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawnhillegas Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Jun 26, 2011 -> 02:04 PM) Rios is just as bad as dunn one K's and walks the other K's and pops out on the infield No way. Rios is hitting 50 points better than Dunn, and is playing great defense. He's also made adjustments to his swing (unlike Gordon), and at least projects to put together a replacement-level season if he continues to shake off his May.

aprec32 Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 26, 2011 -> 02:03 PM) He's laughably bad. Day after day and no change in the results. He could have blown this game wide open had he hit a bomb. Instead more of the same, Sox stranding runners. Doesn't it seem like we have an inordinate amount of close games? Just go to any website and look at this year........we have virtually no blow outs. We win a lot of close games and lose a bunch of close games.

Harry Chappas Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 Konerko has sat back and taken Hernandez to left...he has turned into an amazing hitter I wish the rest of that lineup would do the same Dunn oughta stand closer to the plate and just try to drive the ball to left for one at bat. It couldn't make make him look any more foolish than he looks now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chisoxfn Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Jun 26, 2011 -> 12:04 PM) Rios is just as bad as dunn one K's and walks the other K's and pops out on the infield Rios has been hitting it hard by and large the past week or so. Heck, even more than that. His slugging percentage, ops, and average have been on the rise the past couple of weeks. He's also coming off a 3 hit game. I realize its sexy to hate on Rios, but unlike Dunn, he's actually coming around and also plays some good defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 It's obvious home games are taking a huge toll on Dunn's mind. He's hitting .131 at home. He's actually hitting .217 on the road with a .370 OBP and a .342 wOBA. The pressure's getting to him. If you want him to hit, you don't boo him. For once, I'll have to go with the company line.

We win a lot of close games and lose a bunch of close games. And considering that the Sox are right in the middle of the pack in runs scored, that means the majority of MLB is having a lot of close games. That's what has happened now that you've gotten rid of (most of) the drugs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 That was a bad call by the ump. Either he leaned into it or it hit the back. Heck, the pitch was practically a strike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan4life_2007 Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 26, 2011 -> 02:06 PM) Yeah, that's pretty much hyperbole defined. Good luck. With a player who offers NO defensive value, I challenge you to find 10-15 players worse. To this point, anyway. And even if you somehow could, who cares. This has gone WAYYYYYYYY beyond a slump or a physical ailment or a switch of leagues, this dude, in 2011, is not a legitimate baseball player.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 26, 2011 -> 08:06 PM) Yeah, that's pretty much hyperbole defined. Dunn 8th, sounds good to me. Juan ninth. Becks seventh. Balta are you serious or joking? He's got to be right on that. Dunn's stats have to be some of the worst in 20 years or more unless baseball is full of whiffers. That's no hyperbole. Maybe you were kidding.
