Vote4Pedro Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 QUOTE (Princess Dye @ Apr 13, 2010 -> 08:00 PM) Well that's about when I realized it. Last year was my first about face on Ozzie since he's been here. yeah normally i've agreed with ozzie but running him out there all the time was insane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vote4Pedro Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 13, 2010 -> 08:00 PM) Might as well just trade Nix for a minor league arm or something, because if Beckham gets hurt, Omar will be starting over him. didn't ozzie kind of hint at not wanting him or lillibridge during spring training?

fathom Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 He looks like Johan out there. Taking strikes, swinging at pitches 2 feet off the plate isn't a good recipe for a winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, and as we know with Ozzie, if he doesn't really like someone, they're basically worthless on the roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Real Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 A great offense still wouldn't be able to do much with Romero tonight, but I know they wouldn't be getting no-hit with 8 strikeouts in 4 innings. This is what's gonna happen to us this year when we face really good pitching. Verlander is going to frustrate the hell out of us this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThunderBolt Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 13, 2010 -> 07:59 PM) It's pretty obvious that Nix needs to be in AAA getting regular at-bats (if he's not claimed by another team...which is unlikely) because Ozzie's almost always going to go with Kotsay, Jones and Vizquel over the younger player. Nix is out of options, he can't be sent down. I wouldn't mind seeing him moved for a lefty-arm, he's a guy that deserves to play 2nd somewhere, and with Beckham's era just getting started, he's not going to get that chance. I'd ship him off, call up Retherford, and DFA RAANDNDNY!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he hasn't looked very good at all thus far against Cleveland and Kansas City. If he gets fastball happy, we can murder him. Although with the way the offense has been this season...

Real Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 Forget about the years where we crushed Verlander, last year showed that he learned how to use his secondary pitches ahead in counts, IMO he turned into a new pitcher last year Gavin 80+ in 3.2 IP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
