The Critic Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 Thank God Ben Davis bailed his stupid ass out. Ozzie needs to sit Uribe down for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 No doubt. That is absolutely no mental approach to the game at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chisoxrd5 Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 Uribe is not retarded he is "special" ok? But in all honesty that was about as absentminded as I have EVER seen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilliamTell Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 Between Juan, Jose, and Willie, it's a shame the Sox have to put out 2 of them to play every day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orangekrush88 Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 It was totally inexcusable. Uribe should be sat for the rest of the game for the dumbass play of the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reesdi Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 That is absolutely no mental approach to the game at all. Why do you think this team struggles with rookies and junkballers and good pitchers? They are a stupid, see-the-ball-crush-the-ball bunch, that's why. Uribe just happens to be the most obvious one. Which is too bad because he has all-star talent.

Old Socks Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 Uribe made several bonehead plays with the Rockies the last two years, and he drove Clint Hurdle crazy. Usually in the second half of the season. I didn't see this one, however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LDF Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 Not a chance... why??? how bout hitters getting the sign from the 3b coach? just asking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reesdi Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 have you thought that maybe ozzie gave him the signal to do it Have you ever thought that maybe when others come to a conclusion about a player, they base it on more than a single play?

southsider2k5 Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 why??? how bout hitters getting the sign from the 3b coach? just asking. No way a manager makes that call. Ozzie would know better than to bunt with his slowest runner on 3B with one out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDF Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 Have you ever thought that maybe when others come to a conclusion about a player, they base it on more than a single play? since i do not have access to watch the game, i base my knowledge of any player on other people opinions. batters usually take their signal from the 3b coach, so that is how i remember how the game was played. i was just making a comment and didn't think it was wrong to ask, or was it. have you ever thought you that there might be more than one observation to any one play. oh btw............. :fyou Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDF Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 No way a manager makes that call. Ozzie would know better than to bunt with his slowest runner on 3B with one out. ok i will agree with that, that more often than not, when runners are on, hitter that their cue from the 3b coach making a signal........... right?

southsider2k5 Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 ok i will agree with that, that more often than not, when runners are on, hitter that their cue from the 3b coach making a signal........... right? Sure they get their signal from the 3B coach, who gets his signal from the MGR. But you know that players make snap decesions out there.

Jordan4life_2007 Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 Uribe made a stupid play. Nobody can deny that. But i've been dissapointed in his play long before that. Rex was right "God damn you Rex". While we were all celebrating Uribe when he was on fire. Rex was the only one who said that he would come back down to earth. Damn you Rex.

Rex was right "God damn you Rex". While we were all celebrating Uribe when he was on fire. Rex was the only one who said that he would come back down to earth. Damn you Rex. I dont know if that was that bold of a statement. I mean, he was batting .370 in April and May, of course he was going to go down to earth. But what he's doing now isnt down to earth, its further into the crust. He needs to get back if we've got any shot, cause I cant stand watching Willie hit infield squibbers all day long either.

greg775 Posted August 2, 2004 Share Posted August 2, 2004 We should trade Juan or Willie to the Royals for Graff. I'd take Graff over Juan or Willie, wouldn't you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TLAK Posted August 2, 2004 Share Posted August 2, 2004 I doubt Tony would be very happy to come back. A big reason he opted for KC over seemingly better offers was the atmosphere there. Here is a quote from the Examiner: "I'm a Christian and there are a ton of Christians on this team," Graffanino said. "All that helps. It definitely helps me feel a lot more comfortable." I don't think he'd take well to Ozzie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
