Dick Allen Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 Its a shame he couldn't leave Cotts in to face Renteria. RH hitters hit .112 against Cotts and .300 against Jenks. Ozzie makes this foolish move and its called a gut move, he doesn't play by the book. If Manuel was managing and made that move, Hawk would be b****ing about it until the cows or Wimpy came home.

SHAFTR Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 08:56 PM) Jenks has an absolutely nasty curveball, trust me he doesn't need to add a change. yeah, he should probably learn how to control his 2 pitches first before he decides to learn enitrely new pitches.

Brian Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 I've seen Jenks throw a change up a few times when he first came up to Oakland, I believe. Not sure why they don't use it more cuz Chavez was WAY out in front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzie Montana Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 This game blowed. There is no doubt in my mind we should have put these Red Sox away. BAD PITCHING AND HOrrendous managing. I hope Ozzie doesnt do s*** like this in the playoffs but he will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 Its a pretty tough situation to put Jenks in. He is a rookie, expect some mistakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3 BeWareTheNewSox 5 Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 Enough with the L/R matchups, just leave Uribe in, I'm sure this will really help his confidence after he owned Rivera on Wed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3 BeWareTheNewSox 5 Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 I heard he has a changeup as well, either Farmio or AJ said it, but they said he doesn't need it as much (in their opinions) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BAD PITCHING AND HOrrendous managing. I hope Ozzie doesnt do s*** like this in the playoffs but he will. Gimme a f***ing break. Horrendous pitching and bad fielding. Ozzie did nothing wrong. I wouldn't of had Buehrle starting the 7th, but oh well. Ortiz killed Jenks fastball and that's what you get for walking Renteria. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
