ThunderBolt Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 (edited) QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Apr 9, 2010 -> 12:07 AM) Thank you, Captain Obvious. When did I ever say that Beckham should have bunted? I think it's a horrible idea. But that's not why we're losing. Like I said, we have 8 hits AS A TEAM in what is now 19.1 innings. Those 2 bunts aren't the reason we're losing. I understand that we're not coming through, but you don't deny your 2nd best hitter opportunities to hit.

Dick Allen Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 IIRC Pierre is extremely streaky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 9, 2010 -> 05:06 AM) So we have a bad offense and then our manager makes it worse. Ozzie isn't the whole problem, but the fact that he's supposed to be helping the team when he's clearly not is pissing me off. THIS IS OZZIE'S OFFENSE! He's had a love for Pierre for years, and he wanted a DH by committee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxFan1 Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Apr 8, 2010 -> 11:08 PM) Slav. When you're right, you're right. I'm not sure if you're being facetious cecious or not. But when you lose 2 straight to the f***ing Indians with the crap pitching staff they're running out, and you can muster 8 hits in 20 innings, I'm not going to blame 2 f***ing bunts on the 2 losses.

vandy125 Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 8, 2010 -> 11:08 PM) We got a gift run because the ump refused to ring up Quentin. We're not getting breaks because we're striking out a ton tonight. Ah. I turned it on way after we were apparently done scoring for the night...

Sox It To Em Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 The Twins will take three of four against the Angels in Anaheim while we lose two of three to the Indians at home. It's obvious who the team to beat in this division is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not being facetious at all. Bunting with Beckham is an epic fail for two reason. 1. He's a very good hitter. 2. It gives the Tribe every reason to pitch around our best power bat and put him on 1st. It's one of the dumbest moves I've seen, and it was done twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They went on to say the club is really hoping to get off to a good start and that the weather is good to make up for how bad the attendance was last season.
