SoxAce Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 I just want Ozzie to know his players better. You've been here for this long and still don't know Alexei isn't a great bunter (sure he'll get one down from time to time, but is not consistent enough) Pierre, Vizquel are the best bunters on your team.

An inning or so later, Pierre dropped down a bunt and advanced Vizquel, and I had much less problem with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's looked awful. Had 1 hard hit ball all weekend, and that was a rolling, hanging breaking ball from some POS reliever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Apr 4, 2011 -> 01:37 PM) I abhor off-days. I didn't mean to be an offday asshole. I was just wondering aloud about the fact a skinny big leaguer, just a few days after the conclusion of spring training can look awful on the first attempt at the simple act of bunting, then bunts into a triple play. Huge mojo killer. We lead 1-0 and can have second and third and one out. Arguably a killer in trying to sweep the Tribe. I get the reasoning, just am ready to sign a petition to deliver to Jerry that say no more bunting until big leaguers actually can pass a bunting test. Lexi obviously can't bunt except to drag bunt for a hit like somebody said. Peace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigSqwert Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 (edited) Nice Sox groupon today. Includes patio party before the game. Several games to choose from. EDIT: I wound up getting tickets to the 4/16 game with some friends. Perhaps this would be an ideal setting for another Soxtalk meetup?

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 It's kind of funny to think that Ozzie had Alexei bunt, so keep him away from grounding into a double play, and instead he bunts into a triple play. lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozzie is a stubborn fool with all of his bunting. Some day he'll realize that he has a softball team and stop playing as if it's 1957.

Lawl they dont scare me at all Sox will get Braden, Cahill, and Anderson next week. Cahill went 8 innings today. 1 run, no walks, 7 k's. Good matchup with Jackson.
