QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 11, 2011 -> 08:12 PM) Yes, I do. Just like he wanted Pods out there in '06 when he was sucking ass. Just like he kept overplaying Wise. Just like he was fine with Mark Kotsay and didn't want Thome because he couldn't promise Thome at bats. Just like how he refuses to sit Juan for a day when he's clearly been one of the worst players in baseball. Ozzie likes bad baseball players. Why? Don't ask me. Cause they resemble how he was at the plate?

QUOTE (Jerksticks @ May 11, 2011 -> 08:59 PM) Ugh. The minute anybody brings up the idea of having a team of athletic guys who work counts and take what the pitcher gives them it gets lumped into this "we already tried this (with s***ty players mind you)" argument. Ugh again. Why always take the OBVIOUS dead-horse argument out of the archives, ya know? Is it because it's easy? I dunno. Do you people really think Ozzie wants JPs weak ass out there? Good Lord. Yes, Juan Pierre is Ozzie's favorite player in the majors. Last year, he said he'd bat Juan Pierre third if he could. As for saying he wants guys who work counts, that's false as well.

QUOTE (Jerksticks @ May 11, 2011 -> 05:34 PM) lol. If you think our guys are tough outs then you are entitled to that opinion. We've been all or nothing forever. I hope we turn it around this year, I really do, but part of me hopes Ozzie gets the team he wants one of these years. Are you freaking kidding me? He has the leadoff hitter of his dreams right now. I'd rather see Jose Paniagua pitching for the Sox again than see a lineup full of Ozzie's "guys".

Mets would say hell no. Wright and Reyes have a lot more value than that.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 11, 2011 -> 03:52 AM) I've never seen anything like this. How can one's player development be so inept? You look at Morel's swing, and you wonder how in the world our minor league instructors thought that would translate well to the majors.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 11, 2011 -> 04:48 AM) 5 errors on May 10th. 6

QUOTE (flavum @ May 11, 2011 -> 04:46 AM) What the f*** was that, Morel? I'm excited to possibly have a starting third baseman who starts 100 games and doesn't homer though.

Morel's defense is as good as advertised...not! He's made Teahen look like Robin Ventura.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ May 11, 2011 -> 04:38 AM) Dayan wants to be here. Juan and his .600 OPS and bad defense and bad base running is blocking him...how sad

Cubs fans probably busy drooling over this weak headline: http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseb...0,5165593.story

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 11, 2011 -> 03:32 AM) True. But I believe in that bat. He'll catch fire soon. And then you've got Dellin Betances having no problems at AA so far. I want both for Danks. I meant Danks, not Montero

Ozzie, it's time to give Juan a day off! That bat is just dragging through the zone.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 11, 2011 -> 03:22 AM) I been tracking Montero all year. I'm obsessed. If Logan continues to struggle for Yanks, then let's give them Thornton also!

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 11, 2011 -> 03:22 AM) I been tracking Montero all year. I'm obsessed. Thing is, he needs to start picking it up to make sure his trade value stays high.

Yankees, please make us a great deal

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 11, 2011 -> 03:16 AM) I hate that damn organization. They always find a way. Whether it be Sanchez or Garcia or Berkman going 2004 on everyone. Duncan's a phenomenal pitching coach.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 11, 2011 -> 04:06 AM) Hey, Fathom, who's this Eduardo Sanchez of the Cardinals? He's kinda nasty. I've never seen him pitch before. Young guy, has a solid fastball (93mph) and a Marmolian slider. He learned the hard way last week not to throw a fastball to Mike Stanton. However, he might be Cardinals closer of future and at very least, a sick righty set-up man.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 11, 2011 -> 04:01 AM) Its getting to the point learning the new league and minor surgery can't be used as excuses anymore. There has to be some concern over deterioration of ability, although I can't see him hitting less than 30 homers if he makes it through the season healthy. He usually has a much better eye at the plate. This is pathetic seeing so many of our hitters chase these junk pitches.

Dunn hasn't helped us against sinker ballers as much as I thought he would so far.

Juan Pierre's defense has probably accounted for more runs for the opposition than he's created for our offense.

Kendrick gets a double on basically a routine single to LF. Danks isn't lasting long in this game. His stuff has really deteriorated this year.

Danks refuses to pitch below the belt. 0-6, here he comes

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 11, 2011 -> 03:44 AM) Nope Expecting Juan to be able to hit a fly ball against Joel is pretty silly

QUOTE (fathom @ May 11, 2011 -> 03:42 AM) Time for a hit and run. Ugh, do something Ozzie! At least Hawk sounds pretty peeved at Juan.

Time for a hit and run.
