CYGarland Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 Well Javy manned up there. I agree he should def be the 4th starter if we make the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Sep 23, 2008 -> 06:45 PM) A major league team that doesnt know how to execute a run down. Shouldn't Ozzie and the coaching staff take some heat for it? In 1999 I went to Minnesota for the last series of the season between the White Sox and Twins. They both sucked so the series was meaningless. The Twins won on Friday. On Saturday the Sox won and after the game, with the next day being the last game of the season, Tom Kelly had the Twins working on things out on the Metrodome turf. You can talk about how to execute rundowns all you want, but they must be practiced no matter how tedious it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should do a drill where they repeatedly bunt into a rundown. That ought to cover everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they're saving Richard for the 6th and 7th in a close game, against Mauer and Morneau. You won't see Ramirez or Boone in this series. That's my guess.

Dick Allen Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 23, 2008 -> 06:48 PM) Yeah, those comments by Ozzie were mind-boggling. I still can't believe we didn't alter rotation to have two lefties face the Twins. I thought they were the same until I thought about it. Just think, if Vazquez comes up huge tonight, Ozzie's comments will get him a lot of credit from a lot of people. If Javy dissapears as usual in this situation, no one will blame Ozzie's comments. It would just be Javy being Javy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can talk about how to execute rundowns all you want, but they must be practiced no matter how tedious it is. Our team has no concept on fundamentals. Thats Ozzie's job, and why he was brought in. To bring a hard played, well played game. This type of sloppy baseball is beyond what we had when we had Valentin and company playing softball here in the early 00's under manuel's watch. He got crucified for bad fundamentals and bad execution and bad motivation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
