Absolutely pathetic....sit his ass tomorrow. And we're bringing in MacDougal for some odd reason.

Not even close on the first two pitches.

Good job Cabrera....take him out to center big guy!

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 15, 2008 -> 02:09 AM) Ozzie changes his lineup too often, people complain. Ozzie gets a set lineup that he pulls out every day, people complain. Is there no end? When it's against lefties, and we have some players really struggling....it's frustrating. I don't know why you take that kind of tone, as you also have that statistic in your sig.

I can't believe we continue to play Uribe. He needs to be our defensive replacement late in games.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Apr 15, 2008 -> 02:08 AM) The line up needs a little shaking up tomorrow. I'd like to see Anderson in and Quentin sit. Plus I think Tome needs a day off to get his hitting head on straight. The biggest hit I can remember him getting since his 2 homer opening day is when Cabrear slipped and fell into the ump on Sunday and the ball fell aqt 3B. It's real simple...he's trying to pull everything.

Smith out, the former Jairo Garcia is in. It would be nice to have a ph here for Uribe.

Dotel sure seems to hang a ton of sliders. Hopefully with more work, he finds the release point for that.

QUOTE (daa84 @ Apr 15, 2008 -> 03:03 AM) yeah used to be in the brewers organization...was a big time prospect at one point...i believe another soft throwing lefty...he had struggles with his weight with the brewcrew iirc I will snap if we use this same lineup.

OD is just an awful nickname for Dotel. He really is a shell of his former self though.

If the A's go to the bullpen, it's times like this we really need to have a lefty bench off of the bat to hit for Uribe.

Mercy, this guy is kicking our ass.

I like Crede in this situation.

Pop ups galore.

Amazing swing by AJP.

That's just inexcusable.

QUOTE (G&T @ Apr 15, 2008 -> 02:43 AM) I should be happy we got on the board. But I don't trust anyone else besides Swisher can get on base. Well, he's guaranteed to bat again.

Perfect pitch to hit, but we get the shoulder shrug. Nice to get a run that inning, but the two black holes against lefties continue to hold us down.

Interesting inning for Tampa, as their big 3 of the future homered in Crawford/Upton/Longoria.

Swisher is a crazy man! That was quite ballsy (and a little stupid).

Oh Swisher....keep impressing

This lefty lineup needs more Pablo

Uribe made to look like a fool up there. Someone has to get us going.

QUOTE (G&T @ Apr 15, 2008 -> 01:30 AM) Suzuki with a double. 3 hits for him. Big batter here....a 3 run lead seems out of reach right now.

2-0 A's....he just doesn't have the velocity to get in on these hitters. There's absolutely no energy out there tonight.
