Jordan4life_2007 Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 QUOTE (elrockinMT @ May 23, 2011 -> 05:00 PM) It appears Ozzie is on that left-righty thingie again He's made Morel a platoon guy without even knowing if he's a platoon guy. No young talent will ever develop with Ozzie in charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can say from personal experience that half the town is snobby rich assholes and the other half s***s on their front porch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The coaches must see something that they prefer to ease Morel into the full time role with giving him good chances to succeed. Go head and fire away at me for looking for an answer.

I would never fire at you. I don't do that. But I don't like the way Morel is being handled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta agree with this. Morel has shown the ability to adjust and improve at each level, after a slow start. I'd like to see some patience exercised with the kid, and play him, nearly every day.

Although it does seem to be hitters and not pitchers doesn't it. Maybe Ozzie is the anti-Pinella, he has no idea how to handle hitters, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brent is not learning how to hit ML pitching with 4 at bats a week. And Dallas McPherson has not earned this playing time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are we that desperate to make the lineup more left-handed? This is ridiculous. More BrentS please, ASAP.
