I noticed that. 

 

He ought to just bunt every time.  Bunt, and stand right on the plate.  His average is plummeting, hopefully he can keep the OBP reasonably high...

 

Like I said, I love the hustle that Ozuna displays. However, by no means should he be viewed as a replacement at 3b or SS if someone gets hurt or continues to struggle.

Ozzie should not let Garcia face Davanon here.  He's a much better hitter from the left side.  Bring in Marte here!

 

Shows what I know. Terrific start by Garcia tonight. Will Ozzie let Marte start the 9th against Anderson and Finley?

Davanon is hitting .215 against RHP and .236 overall. Maybe not this year.

Good question, Damaso did pitch 2 innings last night, he might let Hermy take the whole inning but who knows with oz.

I was hoping Freddy would've gotten out of the inning without giving up the run (to get Shingo some work), but whatever -- still a great outing.

 

BTW -- is it just me, or shouldn't Konerko have made that play on the ball hit by Erstad? It was hit hard, but it was right at him...

good question. two innings last night tells me no.

 

plus we need Hermey to get some save chances to make him an all-star lock (not that this is Oz's consideration at all of course)

Yeah, Davanon is just struggling this year. For some reason, I have a clear memory about Davanon's 3 run homer against Garcia at the Cell last year. Anyways, Garcia made a great pitch to get out of the inning.

Yes, but there will be an excuse for him.

Ya, though play but he kind of turned to the side of it but that's a tough reaction either way.

I was going to ask about that since I'm stuck listening to the radio here in Colorado.

Yes, Konerko should have made that play....or at least knocked it down. After a game where we got a lot of breaks on defense, they had two straight plays in which we just barely missed making the play. Don't get me started on Timo coming in for defense though!

No one up ion the bullpen, according to Farmio. :huh

 

That's a mistake, if that's true. Marte should be brought in for the first two hitters of next inning. He has a better chance than anyone on our team in getting those two lefties out.
