There's one thing that is clear ot me after watching the past few games...Lillibridge should be a full time starter so we can see if some amazing transition from a scrub to a MLB caliber starter has taken place. The ball jumps off of his bat better than almost anyone on the team, and he does a lot of little things that help you win games. I'm confident in saying he has more power than Rios, as Rios will continue to hook the ball off the end of the bat due to his ridiculous mechanics.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 31, 2011 -> 01:50 AM) Fathom, have you seen what Hosmer and Bruce have been doing? It's so depressing to see all this young talent shining all over the league and we're, well, ya know. I'm shocked at how well Hosmer is playing. I thought he'd be a slap hitter his first few years, but he's driving the heck out of it. Bruce is just a great player, but it's pathetic to see how Dusty has killed another young starting rotation. That Brewers team is really good right now...might be most exciting team to watch.

I love twitter. Just searching Ozzie's name gives you all sorts of Yankees fans saying how painful it must be for White Sox fans to have to deal with Ozzie and his bunting.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ May 31, 2011 -> 01:40 AM) I saw the replay of his swing looked to me like he barely moved it. It was more like a punch than a swing, but it was the right call.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 31, 2011 -> 01:38 AM) Is there another AL team that attempts more unsuccessful/poorly executed bunts than we do? Morel's like 1 or 2 for 6 bunting this year.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ May 31, 2011 -> 01:37 AM) OH that just pisses me off 1st Ozzie does his NL bulls*** ,righty who's figuring it out against a struggling lefty and calls for a bunt. like its the bottom of the ninth and all we need is one run. Then 2 terrible calls by the umps on the same play. Yea I know it's hindsight since Morel couldn't get the bunt down but knowing Pierre is up next its assinine. Play to break the game open . If Peavy holds the Red Sox to 0 runs the rest of the way I'll admit I was wrong but now I'm just fuming. Pierre clearly went on that pitch. Seems like he got distracted by the runners. Great rest of post though

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 31, 2011 -> 01:35 AM) I've wanted Ozzie gone since last summer. Thing is, Fenway is a terrible park for Juan to hit with the LF being able to play so shallow. Trying to bunt the runner to third to get Juan up for one out is a very unlikely sac fly situation.

I love the sign in the pregame for the Braves last night where one of the fans held up a sign that said "Stop Bunting!"

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ May 31, 2011 -> 01:32 AM) How does a 3rd base umpire make a call while looking at home plate? That's actually a very difficult decision when you consider if there's a check swing, he has to be the one making the call. Just a fluke play. Of course Hawk hasn't realized yet how awkward of a situation it is.

Why no changes..............Really!
The top of the 4th was the worst managed inning of Ozzie's career, in my opinion. He needs to take his ass and go to the National League.

That's the type of inning that should get Ozzie fired immediately. Nice AB Juan. I'm not sure Lester threw more than 2 strikes that inning.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 31, 2011 -> 01:27 AM) I sometimes want us to lose. He makes me sick. I'm right there with you. I no longer get upset when we lose a few in a row cause it makes it more inevitable that arrogant POS gets let go.

QUOTE (DirtySox @ May 31, 2011 -> 01:26 AM) Benched. He should be, he's an awful bunter (and pretty mediocre at everything else)

Ozzie continuing with one of the worst managerial seasons you can hope for.

Playing for one run in the 4th inning against this offense with bad Peavy on the mound = f*** you Ozzie

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 31, 2011 -> 01:24 AM) Good job, Gordo. Gotta strike this inning. I haven't seen Lester look this mediocre in a while. He might have looked worse vs the Cubs earlier in the month.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 31, 2011 -> 12:18 AM) I doubt he goes more than 5 tonight. I missed first inning. Has Peavy gotten a swing and miss yet?

Is it me, or does it seem like on this road trip, the opposition is doing a great job of running at the right time in order to break up double plays or create holes in the infield?

That slider had very little bite also. He doesn't seem to be letting it fly tonight

Peavy has nothing tonight. His fastball has been bad last two games

It's so sad that we could have Viciedo playing everyday in LF instead of Slappy
