fathom Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 I'm so thankful that Ozzie continues to put Mackowiak in CF. Luckily, putting him in CF hasn't haunted us once this season, so I can't fault our great manager for continuing to put him out there.

CWSGuy406 Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 Pathetic. Embarrassing. ANOTHER blown shot to gain a game on a team. Now four behind Detroit, still two behind Minny. Hurry up and get these 15 games over with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted September 16, 2006 Author Share Posted September 16, 2006 This team can't catch a break. The umpires are really out to get us. That last pitch to Konerko was a ball. It wasn't even close to being a strike! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalapse Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 Am I the only one that noticed Konerko's bat was still on his shoulder when that final pitch crossed over the heart of the plate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully we can fire ozzie before we set our team back by employing another bad speed guy just because Ozzie thinks this is the 2003 Marlins.

Can't we just for once have a decent fielding, non-pussarmed, high OBP leftfielder/leadoffman? I don't think it's that much to ask. Or is it?

southsideirish71 Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 Someone talks about Pods should of been replaced and the robot known as PFB states that well some people start out slow, and you cant replace them based on that. PFB Pods had one, count them one good month as a leadoff hitter. That was in May. September Batting averages. The ignitor .244 BA with a .278OBP. Uribe .150 Thank god he plays every single day and we never replace him. AJ .250 keep pulling and lifting Thome .244 Same here Mackowiak .188/Anderson .214 Gload who cant pinch hit for Uribe or Prancer is hitting .455 Cintron is at .350. Team ERA is 3.66 for the month of September. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a blooper out into shallow right center field, he got a bad jump followed by a lame ass diving attempt which was highlighted by his knees hitting the ground only a split second after his feet left the ground, ball his off his glove and rolled away. It didn't help that Dye attempted to throw a runner out at the plate flat footed on a sac fly shortly afterward. It was just a pathetic defensive showing by the team as a whole.

Well lets start with the told KW the kind of players he wanted/traded for the team. If you remember we had a budget set for that team and Carlos Lee and Paulie were both 8 million dollar players and one of them was going to go. Pretty much we had a salary dump and picked up a speedy leadoff guy. I have a question for you, take the same pitching staff we had last year, and then add the offenses in 2003 and 2004. And do you think Manuel wouldnt of went to the playoffs or won something. We won last year because of lock solid pitching. Lou Pinella, or anyone that can fill out a lineup card that starts the starters 80% of the time, and can make normal pitching changes can do the job. Playing 25% of the starters, experimenting like we are still in Tuscon, and his inability to make changes have cost us more games than we are behind this year.
