caulfield12 Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 That ball was actually out over the plate, but 70% of Dunn's K's have to have been on low and inside (mostly balls) sliders/cutters/curves at his kneecaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 (edited) QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 19, 2012 -> 02:32 PM) His mental errors on the field are way too similar to Pierre last year. The funny thing is that I was listening to a Dodgers' broadcast maybe 3-4 years ago and Vin Scully said he NEVER saw Pierre make a mental mistake on the field of play. Kind of lapsed there with Ozzie, although a lot of his errors were physical as well as mental ones. Hawk loves Adam Jones, lol. Reimold has looked REALLY good this season, too. Wonder who Adam Jones goes to as a FA? He'd be a very good fit for the Cubs if they didn't have Jackson coming up, because Byrd's nearing the end of the line as a productive player. Heck, he'd look really good for the Sox, too, but not for $15-16 million per season. Edited April 19, 2012 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cabiness42 Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Rios and Alexei are batting behind Konerko and AJ right now--they're just doing it one spot later in the order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would we win another game this season? Up until a week ago, that would have worked. But Rios and Ramirez have been pretty dangerous. Maybe walk AJ, though, and try to get the DP ball from Rios or Alexei. Somehow, I wouldn't be shocked if it was Nathan Jones and not Addison Reed eventually emerging as the closer.

caulfield12 Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 (edited) 99 K's and counting. The next one will be 100 in 12 games (8.33 per game). Great heater vs. Konerko bat match-up. It's not fair how good the Rangers' system if they can just release this guy or not protect him. Edited April 19, 2012 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Chappas Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Somebody should bump the Jeff Manto thread from when he was named hitting coach and his quotes. i recall a lot of conversation about how his approach does not make sense.
