fathom Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Sep 7, 2005 -> 02:36 AM) Relax, Relax. We got 5 outs to get against KC, and this will be a learning experience( God I hope) for Oz. Agreed. Even though I thought the Seattle game and the Rangers game would be a learning experience for Ozzie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the way a bunch of fans on a message board thinks he should do things. It has worked pretty well for him so far. He's done nothing wrong tonight. Not his fault Marte gave up a bomb.

He even said that he doesn't feel like he has his best stuff right now. Jenks didn't pitch on Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as we fans in a chat room hyperventilate at times, I do not understand Ozzie's love affair is with certain guys. Marte is terrible. Perez is the laughing stock of Sox fans everywhere. What is it with him? As good as he's been overall, Ozzie has a couple of HUGE blind spots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 QUOTE(redandwhite @ Sep 7, 2005 -> 02:44 AM) what a ridiculous hit and run call... The idea was fine, just a terrible pitch to put in play. To make 3 outs on the bases though is poor, and that's how you don't score for 6 consecutive innings against bad pitching.

jphat007 Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Sep 6, 2005 -> 08:44 PM) Uh. Yes. Its not worth getting into it, because I can already tell there will be no budge in you, but when half the board is calling for Duque to be out at a certain time(the 6th) and Oz leaves him in, and Duke then proceeded to put KC back in the game, OZ made a mistake. We have been watching all season him do the same thing. Get over it, Ozzie is not a good in game manager. He himself might tell you that. Then everyone in baseball is a bad manager, because there is not a manager in baseball that takes Duque out giving up 1 run through 6 innings with a 9 1/2 game lead on September 6. There just isn't. And if you really believe there is, there is no reason to continue. WHat half the board thinks means absolutely nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see no reason to end an inning with a slow runner on base, and someone whose wild on the mound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There just isn't. And if you really believe there is, there is no reason to continue. WHat half the board thinks means absolutely nothing. Actually, most managers would be more cautious with an old, injury prone starting pitcher that he has plans of pitching in the postseason. Not only that, but it's not like our bullpen is tired. We have added arms in the bullpen to help out the rest of the season. Lets just win this game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
