greg775 Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 That is hilarious that the only bright spot on the team, humber, will be demoted soon. Typical for our season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ May 7, 2011 -> 04:45 AM) I didn't see it so tell me what was the big mistake(s) Ozzie made, other than leaving Thornton in so long? Pitched to Babe Smoak with an open base instead of going after Cust, who looked bad vs Humber. Stone was questioning it even before the decision.

bulokis Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 Why was thornton pitching against Ryan? Ozzie just probably wants to get fired. I am so frustrated with this team. What are we 13 games out now? No more white sox baseball for me for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was a winnable game and we f***ed it up again. It's not like we lost 5-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could you please get me a list of all the other starters who have shut us down? I'd like to be an equal-opportunity hat tipper. Many are deserving of that tip with this punchless piece of s*** team.

Typical for our season. He's not getting demoted. In fact, if Peavy shows he's healthy, I think a pitcher is going to get traded pretty soon.

Wouldn't shock me for a second if Danks is first to go, with someone on Sox leaking to Heyman he will file for free agency after 2012. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expect our team to take advantage of crucial mistakes made by the opposing team and to capitalize on outings like Phil Humber had tonight. We did neither and its inexcusable.

In fact, if Peavy shows he's healthy, I think a pitcher is going to get traded pretty soon. Seeing as where we are in the standings, I am firmly on the trade Danks bandwagon for the first time. If you trade him by the deadline, you will get the most for him since it's not a rental. I am pretty confident he isn't re-signing here so might as well get a top prospect or two.

greg775 Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 I'd be willing to trade anybody at this point. I always resisted "rebuilding" but this team is going to lose 95 to 100 games I have no doubt about that so they might as well blow it up. This game was so predictable. Even in one where we play a fairly respectable game, you know the M's, given the final at bat, will win it with a run in either the eighth or ninth. But when we are at home, the last at bat never matters. Please fire some people and demote some players. This is unbearable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cause this horses*** start has screwed him up mentally. That's another reason he needs to be canned. He's grouping all these losses together and figures to go with Thornton since he looked like he was sort of "on." He's managing weirdly and must go for the betterment of the organization. Just fire him. What's the big deal? What's the holdup? Even Ozzie won't be surprised when he's canned. You better damn well believe Ozzie would be firing a manager off to this kind of start with this kind of payroll if he were GM.

caulfield12 Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 (edited) Ozzie was expecting or playing for extra innings so he was saving Sale, Santos and Crain? LOL. Whatever, Ranger. Every loss at this point is just one more nail on the coffin. He should be managing every game like we're tied for the division lead with one week left in the season. The Indians finally lost another game...at this point, I don't want to trend neutral. Either we start making up ground or throw in the towel. I do believe the next 8 games will serve the ostensible purpose of defining itself as the final D.O.A. notice.

Jordan4life_2007 Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 The state of this franchise right now is frightening. A terribly bloated salary wise major league roster with flat-out bad, underachieving or past their prime guys. A deplorable minor league system that hasn't produced a f***ing thing in 10 years. Bad management, bad coaches, bad scouting, bad player development, etc (That was for you, Milk). Weren't the Blackhawks rated the worst pro sports organization a few years back? I think we're in the top 5 right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no way in hell this team is turning it around on a road trip. What are they waiting for in firing Ozzie? It's ridiculous. It's time. He's not going to manage the White Sox for 25 years like La Russa in St. Looie. Not gonna happen. It's unfortunate but that's the fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
