caulfield12 Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 16, 2012 -> 01:03 PM) Seriously? Those guys aren't major leaguers. We're not going to bid for Napoli. That means the BEST we could do would be either Doumit or Iannetta. I think they'll give Flowers a shot to see if he can hit at least .210 or .220 with power and not K'ing more than Dunn. DeAza's 7 game hitting streak in jeopardy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorStSox Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 QUOTE (Jake @ Jun 16, 2012 -> 12:05 AM) AJ hustles more than the average MLB player, absolutely for sure. I'd venture to say that his career doesn't get this far if he hadn't had a reputation for hustling and being in the right place at the right time. His defense lately has been getting lazy though. I have to wonder if it is because he gets far less rest than your average MLB catcher His career has gotten this far because he's durable and has a sweet looking LH swing. He's a decent offensive player. Until this year, his D has been awful and, yes, he's lazy. If throwing your bat means you try hard, then he's not lazy. Throwing your bat doesn't mean s***. Run it out! He never does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Jun 16, 2012 -> 05:06 AM) Thanks for nothing EE. That double switch made no sense, as it's not like Thornton was going to throw 2 innings. It made it so you couldn't use Viciedo or Danks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thad Bosley Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ Jun 15, 2012 -> 11:05 PM) I've hated him ever since he threw the elbow at Frank at the Metrodome. I don't like him so it forces me to be way more objective. I'm happy when he does well, it helps the Sox, but he's a lazy, s*** talking SOB. He plays the most physically demanding position on the field, and plays it more often than any of us his peers. Hardly the resume of a "lazy" player.

Dude I know Humber has been bad but that's why they play the game. You could be down losing 5-1 in the 6th and win the game, just ask the Dodgers.

A struggling pitcher(Has not pitched well since the perfect game) vs a dodgers lineup who is producing runs. Sounds like a win to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
