Milkman delivers Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 QUOTE (Jenksy Cat @ May 2, 2010 -> 12:12 PM) needed its own thread for sure It sort of does. Taking Pierre out of the lead off spot, only to replace him with Omar Vizquel and Mark Kotsay. It honestly seems like Ozzie is trying to get fired.

jenksycat Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 We lost with A-ram leading off, won with Vizquel leading off, and Rios isn't even with the club right now. Can we take 3-4 steps away from the ledge or are we all jumping off at this point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 I'd rather Kotsay lead off than Ramirez, as Alexei isn't a long-term solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can we take 3-4 steps away from the ledge or are we all jumping off at this point? I see nobody jumping off the ledge in this thread. And having won a single game with Vizquel leading off hardly justifies having the man in a starting role, let alone at the top of the order.

iamshack Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 I just found it funny that he did almost ground out to second... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 QUOTE (bmags @ May 2, 2010 -> 05:27 PM) Kotsay is? No, but we know he won't be starting all too often for the Sox, so that would require Ozzie to use someone like Rios maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"ozzie is trying to get himself fired" Yep, I see no overreacting their. Having won a game with Vizquel goes perfectly along with your logic as well btw.

Balta1701 Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ May 2, 2010 -> 01:31 PM) It says he's 1-1 on gameday? Correct. Singled up the middle on his first at bat (ground ball that Cano couldn't handle), moved to 2nd on a wild pitch, stranded at 2b. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamshack Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ May 2, 2010 -> 12:31 PM) It says he's 1-1 on gameday? He hit a ball up the middle-ish towards second that had a lot of topspin on it. Cano got his glove on it but couldn't hold it. Official scorer ruled it a hit, apparently.

CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 2, 2010 -> 10:37 AM) Correct. Singled up the middle on his first at bat (ground ball that Cano couldn't handle), moved to 2nd on a wild pitch, stranded at 2b. Stranded at 3rd actually after he advanced on an Andruw Jones fly out to center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a thread about the leadoff spot at the bottom of this page. That will suffice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
