IlliniKrush Posted July 30, 2004 Share Posted July 30, 2004 I dont think jerry manuel wouldve given a no name pitcher making his major league debut who had given up a hit on his second career pitch his first out on a hit and run CS Not a good baseball move there Ozzie whatsoever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted July 30, 2004 Share Posted July 30, 2004 Ozzie has been very Bevingtonesque recently. I think the honeymoon may be over. If JM were managing this same game tonight, and made the same moves, he would have been skewered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWSGuy406 Posted July 30, 2004 Share Posted July 30, 2004 Agreed. This team is playing very poorly right now, I'll admit that. And for those of you saying Maggs/Thomas missing are the problem, while they would help out our offense a lot, even they can't control our defensive woes. I can understand a slumping offense. I cannot, for the life of me, understand why the f*** we're in such a 'defensive' slump... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aboz56 Posted July 30, 2004 Share Posted July 30, 2004 Yea his managing sucks and he is costing us games lately. Seriously, this is becoming worse than Manuel, at least decision wise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlliniKrush Posted July 30, 2004 Author Share Posted July 30, 2004 I've almost had it with his stupid managing decisions. This isn't hard baseball, and it's not even people second guessing him - i've been first guessing him a lot lately. This crap is getting old, fast. Ozzieball?

greg775 Posted July 30, 2004 Share Posted July 30, 2004 I'm not going to fall into the trap of blaming the skipper. We're sucking as a team because we can't hit without Maggs and Frank. Everett I hate to say, sucks, as a replacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoda Posted July 30, 2004 Share Posted July 30, 2004 I really won’t rip Ozzie apart because he is just a rookie this year. I know he needs to start learning from his mistakes, but if JM were hear I don’t even think we’d be above .500. Ozzie has really brought something different that Manuel never did and even the players say so. What is that difference? Probably Ozzieball.

FlaSoxxJim Posted July 30, 2004 Share Posted July 30, 2004 I cannot, for the life of me, understand why the f*** we're in such a 'defensive' slump... What's worse is how Jose and Crede are apparently trying to outdo each other in the defensive brain cramp department these last two games. DP ball through Crede's legs... Jose can top that with a botched catch on a pop foul. DP ball Jose can't toss to Willie with a decent throw. Crede shows that up with a rediculous phantom tag that was a dead-on caught steeling (insult to injury Sandy gets charged with a passed ball error when he managed to make the peg).

elrockinMT Posted July 30, 2004 Share Posted July 30, 2004 Honeymoon is over Maybe Ozzie mistook a BM coming on for a gut feeling... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
