The Ginger Kid Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 13, 2011 -> 01:46 PM) What's he doing? Geren thought Sweeny the PH had to face Crain since Ozzie had just made a visit to the mound, but once Sweeny was announced Ozzie pulled Crain for matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 QUOTE (Reddy @ Apr 13, 2011 -> 03:47 PM) went out to talk to crain, geren sent up laroche, kept crain in, geren sent up sweeney. sweeney gets in the batters box. ozzie comes BACK out to bring in thornton and sweeney is forced to stay in. wacky. Sounds like Geren screwed up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve9347 Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 QUOTE (Y2HH @ Apr 13, 2011 -> 03:47 PM) This is do or die for Thornton. As long as Juan Pierre catches any flyballs, Matt's going to be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melissa1334 Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Apr 13, 2011 -> 03:47 PM) Thornton will either get a huge boost of confidence or be lost for the rest of the season after this. well this is going to be really,really scary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxbadger Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 No it was smart. Ozzie waited for them to announce the hitter and then got the match up. Now its up to Thornton. This was all part of the plan, let Thornton go in after other people have messed up so he knows hes not alone. WE ARE UNITED IN OUR SCREW UPS!

BigSqwert Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 You have to go with Matt here. he's rested and needs to prove that he can close out in tough situations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBigHurt Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 If Matt can close the door here maybe it would be a turning point for him and he can get the monkey off his back and we can have a legit closer... In THIS situation? I think he's being set up to fail here. But I guess you're right; IF (and that's a big if, IMO) he can get out of this one maybe it will help him. BTW, what was the big deal about anyway? What did Ozzie do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockRaines Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 13, 2011 -> 03:46 PM) You're right. It was an excellent choice to bring him back out. He did a superb job. Nice answer. Who cares about the actual pitches thrown when you want to prove your point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daa84 Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 ok matt i dont have confidence in you to start the inning as my closer, but since everyone else f***ed up, we might as well let you have a chance...good thinking ozzie IF YOU ARE GOING OT BRING HIM IN HERE WITH BASES LOADED AND 1 OUT YOU BRING HIM IN AT THE BEGINNING OF THE INNING Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
