Balta1701 Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 QUOTE (TomPickle @ Jun 4, 2011 -> 10:14 PM) If you walk Cabrera you could walk Martinez too. There were two bases open. To face Peralta with the bases loaded? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBigHurt Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 I'm sitting here with my Cubs fan friend, and I saw the leadoff triple and then 2 outs recorded quickly and he's nodding along and I told him, "I've been watching this team for years. TRUST ME, whoever is up next is hitting a home run; not a single/triple/whatever, a f***ing home run!" And then I said "And I bet it's f***ing Miguel Cabrera coming up, too!" We laugh our asses off as Miggy comes up... then hits a home run. Totally called it, I'm not even mad. There was no doubt that was going to happen... absolutely NONE.

Wanne Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 4, 2011 -> 08:13 PM) With the way that they've both looked today, with the roll Martinez is on, with Crain and Cabrera both being righties, walking him is just as much a roll of the dice. Cabrera just won. not a fact of just walking him...you have him 1-2...throw s*** outta the zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His problem is he's turning into Mike Jackson against righties. He has to keep hitters honest with his fastball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozzie, have fun explaining that decision on your next job interview. I can understand why he didn't walk Cabrera (Crain just got two big outs and V-Mart is hitting pretty well). For a while there, it looked like a good decision. Crain just couldn't finish him off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
