Timo has easily earned his contract so far this year. He won a couple games for us and brought us back with big hits in a few others. That alone is worth that million along with what he has done int he clubhouse.

 

....

 

Even though the stats show he hasn't been very good in 'clutch' situations.

 

I'm sorry, sub-.300 OBP doesn't equal $1 million bucks.

all of those traits are worth a roster spot on the bench, not 1 million dollars

Yah, thats not good if you are a starter, but he's not. He's needed to OCCASIONALLY come in and get a big hit. And he's done that many times so far this year.

 

His close and late numbers are

 

.273 .333 .545 .878

 

Not too shabby for a pinch hitter. And I'm looking at individual circumstances, and he's won two BIG games by himselft and tied at least 3 other in the 8th or 9th inining.

There is not a big difference between 6 and 7 hundred K and a millino when you have a 75 million dollar payroll. Plus the intangibles he brings. But whatever.

Ozzie please PH for the guy that hasn't had a clue tonight and not for the guy that is hitting missles...:banghead

 

These are the type of games where Ozzie is exposed for not having a clue what he's doing during the game. Someone might have wanted to tell Ozzie that Chulk is .100 pts better, in terms of batting average, against righties than lefties.

Crede looked worse than an NL pitcher in that f***ing AB.  So Ozzie has Blum hit for Uribe instead of Crede?  Uribe is swinging the bat pretty well now, while Crede has looked piss poor tonight.  Bad managing this inning.

 

So far, Ozzie has been right many, many more times than you have.
