"Offensive" Offense

See, I promised I would update at least twice a week and I promise to keep it up haha.

But anyway, Yesterdays game irked me, no it wasn't watching Waaahhmy Sosa go deep off MacDougal (terrible pitch btw, why and how do you throw Sammy an 0-2 fastball right down the pipe?) preceeding a chorus of boos from the ChiSox faithful, Nor was it Gar giving up two dingers one of which was to the scrub that is Brad Wilkerson. It was the absolutely dormant offense of this team, cold or no cold this team is dead offensively. Both teams need to play in this weather and none of the teams really seem to be affected by it except us.

Greg Walker said yesterday that all the teams we've been paying have beend ead offensively too. Really Walk? 8 runs is being dead offensively? I find that very hard to believe, but alas I'm cautiously optimistic at this pitiful offense. I'm giving a pass for Dye and Konerko because they're notorious slow starters, but im worried about Crede because the only good year Crede had was last year, and I'm worried that he may return to his terrible hitting. The other problem is that he's not getting the job done defensively in fact, no one is getting the job done offensively. However, that could happen due to the weather because I assume it would be hard to feel the ball. Also imagine my shock that Pods gets hurt when he's one of the only guys actually hitting the ball. Seriously, can this guy just stay healthy? I guess its just our luck. I'm hoping Walker is right when he says this is just the "calm before the storm" and that the offense will wake up, hopefully sooner rather than later.

Quick Blurbs:

1) Freddy made his first start for the Phils yesterday, and from what I hear it was classic Freddy, a couple Ks, a couple walks, and a couple bombs.
                                 

2) On the flip side, Gio made his 3rd start for the Barons yesterday and continues to dominate, 1.17 ERA, 18/7 K/BB ratio, and 3 Ws, promotion to AAA coming?

3) Attention all passengers riding Sammy Sosa airlines, we are now boarding.

4) Hey Gar, please don't say we're the best team in the AL, its not true, and we all know what happens when players get cocky, coughjimmyrollinscough.

Till Next Time.
