Rowand44 Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Aug 26, 2006 -> 05:16 PM) Anderson has been hitting well. Ozzie has to get him to hit poorly so he can always use him as an example when teams accuse the Sox of cheating. Playing him infrequently will do that. That said, I really think Mack has a better chance off Santana, but its not worth the defensive downgrade especially with Pablo or Pods in LF. I'd agree with this. I also agree with your last line however, I'm just so sick of watching Mack cost us runs in an unnatural position for him. It's just beyond dumb to not have BA out there almost every game especially facing the Twins, this is just ridiculous. QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 26, 2006 -> 05:16 PM) I hate our manager.

I'm sure he will be catching Buerhle tomorrow, or maybe after seeing the Tigers taking batting practice off Buerhle, they realized the catcher isn't the problem.

I'm not even going to rip Ozzie, the actions speaking louder than any of my words can. With Jerry Owens' cryptic comments on WSCR this morning it makes one wonder if something is going on with Anderson. Anyway, I wish the reason was Ozzie finally realized that lefties hit Santana better than righties and it also breaks up his rhythm---but with Alomar starting, that blows that theory.

whitesoxfan101 Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 Btw, Anderson had the best at bats against Johan outside of Thome's HR at the game I went to, and he also had 3 good at bats and a hit against him last weeekend. But yeah, Rob has a great shot, after all he kills lefties. At least we have our best defender in there at CF though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not even going to rip Ozzie, the actions speaking louder than any of my words can. Wait. Isn't Anderson one of the few guys who had good swings against Santana on Sunday? If Ozzie wants to get Mack into the lineup, DH him and bench Gload. Do you think that, just maybe, the PLAYERS are starting to question Ozzie's use of Anderson and McCarthy? I mean, I have little idea of the plan here.

It could be a little skewed, because most lefties that hit against him are front line guys, but you do take his change-up away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't appear like Ozzie's act will be a very long running one, but unless he does something so stupid there is no other choice, he won't get canned. I think he will quit sooner than most think. Maybe then his sons will go out and get jobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxfan101 Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 Rob hitting .233 against lefties btw. Pablo in LF I can live with since he went 1 for 3 against Santana in each of our last 2 games against him, but Rob in CF is mind boggling. I mean Jesus, DH him and put Paulie at 1B if you want Rob in the lineup that bad. QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Aug 26, 2006 -> 05:26 PM) No sir, it is not. I'm sick of him.

TitoMB345 Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 Lol, Mackowiak is in CF? Ozzie surely just put the wrong name in........................... I swear to god, he better be kidding. At this point, I almost hope Rob breaks his ankle in the pre-game, and BA plays. Sure, it may be evil, but I hope ith appens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 I think throwing some lefties at him is worth a shot. They haven't had much success the other way, although you need to keep Minnesota from scoring runs, and Mack in CF is as bad of idea as Ozzie has ever had. Anderson needs to play.

TitoMB345 Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 I guess Ozzie missed the memo where we are in 3rd place in the central and NOT in the wild card lead. I'm glad he's resting the starters for the figment of his imagination, the thing we call the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxfan101 Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 Anderson is 2 for 11 with a walk against Johan btw. But between that and the fact he's given mostly quality AB's against him, that's as good as anybody we've got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
