Lefty should be in for Kubel too, more bad managing.

 

Linebrink gets out of it, and our manager somehow gets away with not doing his job. PHEW!!

 

When the bullpen is good, the manager looks good.

When you have Crede and Toby doing a rundown, the lack of speed makes it hard to get a quick out.

 

Speed is irrelevant if you do a run down right, and we can't. It's so basic too, just a pet peeve of mine to see us bad in every run down.

a little PBP pleae

Mauer walked. Morneau fouled out. 2 wild pitches sent Mauer to 3rd. Cuddyer grounded to Crede, and they caught Mauer in a run-down the get him out, Cuddyer to 2nd. Kubel PH and popped out to SS.

When you have three lefties that can all hit (especially the first two) all face a righty reliever in the 8th inning, it's bad managing. I'm VERY happy we got away with it though.

People here make me sick. When Ozzie plays the match-ups and brings in Logan/Thornton, he's wrong and should have brought in his set-up man and is micro-managing. But when he brings in his set-up man, he's wrong for not bringing in the LOOGY and playing the match-ups.

 

Give me a f***ing break.

the best thing to happen to the Sox during the '05 run was the dominating SP in the ALCS. Took the Ozzie bullpen factor out of it

If he had brought in a lefty for Mauer and Morneau and been burned, i'd have blamed the players (whoever was pitching) for not performing. All you can do is use common sense and play matchups, which Ozzie didn't do in the 8th. It's not that hard to grasp.

Ozzie is using the traditional template attack. This is what he should of been doing for years. The 50 changes based on what paw the pitcher has to match up with what paw the hitter has jazzes everything up.

 

I am shcoked that he has adapted to this level of end of the bullpen management.

Swisher needs a vacation.

It has been a month since he's had an off day. I'd like to say I can't believe how much ozzie is overusing some of these guys, but I had a feeling this was going to happen with a few key guys, that he just wouldn't get them the days off that they should be getting.

I hear you, nobody ever criticized Torre when he brought Mariano in the 8th to face 5 out of 6 lefties. If it is so easy to manage , get an interview.
