So far your attitude is so immature and ignorant I honestly laughed when I read this post. But saying a manager doesn't even know what a scouting report is totally is respectful and aware of the game of baseball in 2009... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will say that I've never heard Hawk question pitch selection as much as he has in the last week. That was mostly because we threw seemingly 90 pct low fastballs to Branyan during our series in Seattle. Of course, he turns around and says last Friday that AJP is the best at calling a game in the AL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the same time, the scouting report for Mike Jacobs is fairly self-explanatory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At that point it is either Randy Williams or Scott Linbrink. If you are answering Williams, you are full of hindsight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are answering Williams, you are full of hindsight. Absolutely Williams, go back into the thread. That was a nightmare match-up for a guy who had no confidence that he could throw his fastball over for a strike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 I'm actually a fan of RW, as he's serviceable as another LHP in the pen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I would think Ozzie's horrendous managerial decisions speak for themselves. It just amuses me when someone attacks a manager for a dumbass decision, there's always some person to make some rhetorical, sarcastic comment without even TRYING to be intelligent. Sorry if my attack seemed counterproductive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBigHurt Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 (edited) Kinda like what you do everytime? No. I almost always back up what I say with facts and insight. I appreciate the sly attempt to make me look like an idiot based off a hypocritical and entirely empty point of view (like we ALL aren't sarcastic sometimes? PLEASE), but it goes for naught Something intelligent, please? Edited August 18, 2009 by TheBigHurt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
