You blame JR for Adam Dunn, really? Who would you have signed as DH? Certainly, you wouldn't have kept Mark Kotsay and Andruw Jones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Jul 6, 2011 -> 03:12 AM) Well most teams put their best hitter in the 3 hole. Never has an "off the end of the bat" home run meant so little I guess about a player's progress. Something has got to be done about the offense. You have to score runs to win, and having an offense that struggles mightily to score more than 2 runs against a starting pitching isn't going to get it done.

caulfield12 Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 Beckham with a rare mistake on a play he usually makes about 90% of the time. Not an error, but he actually overran it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would have hit him in the head if he got any closer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxbadger Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 If anything Beckham hustled so hard that it made Carlos think it wasnt the rfs play. Cant blame Beckham there, its 100% the rfs ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it's not like we're facing Zach Greinke or Gil Meche when he was going good. This is a raw kid with a great arm but no idea where the ball's going who just happens to be 0-6. That's not an accident. Major league hitters make adjustments. They might have to do the unthinkable and move Pierre to CF and bring up Viciedo and create an atrocious outfield defensive alignment.

This isn't like the beginning of the season where we were facing ace after ace. The Sox have faced some really mediocre starting pitching of late, and have very little to show for it offensively.

The Rodrigo Lopez pitching clinic should prove that crappy pitching can shut down crappy hitting. Edited July 6, 2011 by southsideirish71 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if he hit a little higher on the ball, it would have been a massive HR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
