santo=dorf Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 So Pods actually found a way to strike out on only 2 strikes?

fathom Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Aug 24, 2006 -> 01:41 AM) At least the defense is now improved. Pods would have K'd too. He did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allsox Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 24, 2006 -> 01:40 AM) I hate you Scott Podsednik. Leyland just shoved it up Ozzie's ass. In all fairness, Brian was screwed from the second Oz called him to pinch hit. Should have left Pods in and try to bunt with two strikes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was one of those situations where our manager didn't put a player in the best chance to succeed (Fathom's #1 rule of managing). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maggliopipe Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 Minnesota up 4-1 in the top of the ninth... Honestly this is the most anemic I've seen an offense that's scored 7 runs look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 It's too bad we had to waste MacDougal last night. No "Suck 'em up Joe"? Terrific play by Crede. At least he looks rejuvenated the past few days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was one of those situations where our manager didn't put a player in the best chance to succeed (Fathom's #1 rule of managing). Ozzie wouldn't have been put in a difficult situation if one of his starters simply gets the ball down like Ozzie has been crying for all year long. Even extra bunting hasn't helped. It's on the players shoulders for not completing the easy task. Edited August 24, 2006 by ottawa_sox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard Sean Casey on the pregame show say this tonight "everyone in the clubhouse knows that if you're not doing the job, Leyland will replace you with someone that can in a heartbeat". I miss the days when we thought the same about Ozzie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
