You guys are a tough crowd. How can you argue it was a good decision when they took the lead?? (Likely for good; forgive me for not believing in the boys in grey).

 

Cause it basically gave up an out to move Ichiro to second when he could have stolen the base probably at 95% success rate. If he was on 2nd, then bunting would make sense.

Keep losing! Pleaseee! It's the only chance for changes!

 

Damn you CQ, why do you have to be so awesome!

 

I don't understand this reasoning.

He already has the Sox buried enough that he should be fired.

We don't have to lose any more to prove Ozzie deserves the boot.

But ... it worked. Again, you guys are a tough crowd.

Doing something that reduces your chances of scoring is a bad move even if it works. If Figgins had singled this would be a 3-2 game

Hawk is so pissed at Ozzie right now. It must be nice to have a job and not worry about getting fired, even if you're doing a worse job than Osama Bin Laden's courier.

Hawk has question White Sox outfielders playing everyone the same way and not giving select hitters green lights on 3-0 counts as well. I think if you gave him some truth syrum, he would say Ozzie is not managing well.

I'll never understand why teams don't do a hit and run in those situations. Very good chances it would at least result in a stolen base.

No, it didn't. Ichiro scores on Bradley's double regardless of whether he is on 1st or 2nd. The bunt contributed nothing to Seattle scoring runs that inning.

I gotta say the Mariners offense is as bad as there is in baseball except for Smoak and Ichiro

 

The White Sox have never heard the phrase do not xyz player beat you.

 

There is no way Humber can be moved from the rotation. I understand why he will but this team needs to grow talent and he is showing he can pitch.

New spot? Its his old spot. If they don't want to bench Pierre, its a good place to perhaps get some offense in the line up. Its a shame Morel can't hit.

 

He can't hit or field. We have the worst 3B situation in the game right now.
