chiguy79 Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Aug 8, 2008 -> 06:24 AM) I just gotta add, that down 2 runs and only 1 out you do NOT send Thome to make the second out at the plate that inning. That is bad base coaching. Something was close to getting thrown at the TV after that bonehead decision...I mean come on that just took us out of the game right there in my opinoin and swayed any momentum.

Jake Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 QUOTE (kyyle23 @ Aug 8, 2008 -> 09:31 AM) That was so insanely dumb, and I am pretty sure Cox knew it as soon as Thome turned the corner. You could see him saying "stupid, stupid" to himself after the play. I dont knwo what the heck he was thinking. Cox waved his arm as Raburn fielded the ball, it wasnt like the ball was still skipping around Even though its still a bad call by Cox because he should have seen it, but didn't it look like Thome was hardly even trying from second to third, it seemed like there wasn't even any intensity.

greg775 Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 We can't make our big slow guys fast. Cox should realize this and as annoying as station to station baseball can be, we can't send plodders home from second. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBAHO Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 How do people think Cox has done overall as a 3rd base coach this season? Has he been an upgrade on Razor Shines and / or Joey Cora? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has he been an upgrade on Razor Shines and / or Joey Cora? Joey Cora wasn't a bad 3rd base coach, he was f***ING HORRIBLE. Cox has made some boneheaded decisions this year but overall he's been ok. Cora would do something ridiculously bad, like wave Paul Konerko around on an infield single or something equally dumb.

Indeed. One of the worst I've seen in my 34 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 I thought Razor Shines was fantastic last season. Cora was brutal, but Cox is making some decisions in crucial situations that have cost us games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
