whitesoxfan101 Posted July 21, 2007 Share Posted July 21, 2007 (edited) So they supershift a guy hitting .198, dumb. Then he bunts it foul, showing you what's going on, dumber. FINALLY, you don't go back to a regular defense and Hinske gets to the mendoza line with the free single to the somehow STILL wide open left side, dumbest. Defend this one, Ozzie fans! That's in effect 4 free runs and a possible loss due to our pathetic, inexcuseable manager. Edited July 21, 2007 by whitesoxfan101 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted July 21, 2007 Share Posted July 21, 2007 Like I said earlier today, the way this nightmare season has gone, we'll hold on to Contreras and then trade Garland for a medicore package this offseason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxfan101 Posted July 21, 2007 Author Share Posted July 21, 2007 (edited) HAWK AND D.J. were even going nuts ripping the move. That is all you need to know here. Edited July 21, 2007 by whitesoxfan101 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxbadger Posted July 21, 2007 Share Posted July 21, 2007 How is this thread useless? That sequence was basically this Sox season in a nutshell, its mind boggling. Im sorry but it made me so sick that I turned off the game. I really would like to hear anyone explain what possibly could have been the motivation? Hes a .200 hitter.

They'll come in and say Ozzie brought us a ring, I wouldn't be complaining if Hinske had bunted into a double play, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all know it was a huge f*ck up. I see. I think some people who didn't see the game, and don't want to read the entire game thread(though tonight its not very long) would want to discuss this, especially those who are critical of ozzie's every move, as they require some kind of sick validation.

Soxbadger Posted July 21, 2007 Share Posted July 21, 2007 I dont even know if Ive seen anything that crazy in a long time. It has to be discussed until Ozzie explains that he ate retarded flakes this morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EvilMonkey Posted July 21, 2007 Share Posted July 21, 2007 It was a stupid play all the way. Worse yet was walking the leadoff guy in the inning. The letting the NEXt guy, who you KNOW is gonna bunt, beat it out from a bad throw. Jose, Ozzie, you both suck right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Tizzle Posted July 21, 2007 Share Posted July 21, 2007 QUOTE(fathom @ Jul 20, 2007 -> 08:03 PM) Like I said earlier today, the way this nightmare season has gone, we'll hold on to Contreras and then trade Garland for a medicore package this offseason. Garland shouldn't be on this ballclub August 1st, yet alone this offseason. Buehrle's extension made that decision all the more clear in my mind. I'm curious, for anyone resistant to the possibility of trading Garland, do you believe this organization signs an extension with him? Is it possible that over 37 million (conservatively) is thrown among Vazquez/Buehrle/Garland? I don't believe this will happen, even with the possibility Gonzalez and Floyd somewhat equalize the salaries. If the choice is unloading Contreras to rid ourselves of his remaining contract, or receiving a generous package for Garland, I'd rather take my chances with Contreras. We need an influx of talented positional prospects more than we need Contreras to pitch for another ballclub. The thought of Williams holding onto Contreras AND receiving a mediocre package for Garland in the offseason is just not a possibility in my mind. He has a job to do. I'll be absolutely furious if nothing is done entering August 1st. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxfan101 Posted July 21, 2007 Author Share Posted July 21, 2007 AND NOW he leaves Jose in for the 8th to face the heart of the order. Manny singles, J.D. doubles, 2nd and 3rd 0 outs. Hell, keep him in for Lowell too, Jose is not tired! And a walk, bases loaded 0 outs!! LEAVE HIM IN FOREVER OZ!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitesoxfan101 Posted July 21, 2007 Author Share Posted July 21, 2007 (edited) Oh it got even better in the 8th with the sac fly, hit by pitch, and grand slam for the epic Julio Lugo. Finally, after the grand slam and 10 runs he takes out Contreras. That was laughable, it's like he tried to do the worst job possible.

I'll be absolutely furious if nothing is done entering August 1st. Trading Garland just for the hell of trading him is retarted. With a rotation of Buehrle, Garland, Vazquez, Danks, and then Floyd/Gio, we can live without having top prospects in the outfield. We need to trade Contreras for a bag of used baseballs for all I care. And I am officially in the fire Ozzie's ass now wagon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxfan101 Posted July 21, 2007 Author Share Posted July 21, 2007 That was the worst managed/coached game I've ever seen in any sport. I've seen worse individual moves, but overall I've never seen a worse game. I honestly wonder if Ozzie either wants to be fired or bet on the Red Sox.

BearSox Posted July 21, 2007 Share Posted July 21, 2007 lol @ PFB on the Hinske bunt... "Well, just because he did it on the first one doesn't mean he will do it on the next pitch or the pitch after that." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxbadger Posted July 21, 2007 Share Posted July 21, 2007 Why would some one hitting 200 not take whatever they could get? I mean if it was Ortiz.... But god damn. Im just so angry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
