  1. Ugh...damn Sandy. Will you please retire last year?
  2. Wow...it's been a while since we hit the foul pole.
  3. QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Sep 16, 2006 -> 08:43 PM) You have to play for one run when you can't score as it is. All I know is that we've made the first out of the last two innings via the bunt. With a pitcher struggling with his control, we're making it much easier for him. Good grief Dye....stop swinging so hard.
  4. Great....I love smallball. Nothing like playing for one run.
  5. QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Sep 16, 2006 -> 08:38 PM) How people want to keep Freddy over Vaz is beyond me. Yep...couldn't agree more.
  6. Why don't we give Cintron a chance to provide a spark to our offense?
  7. Anderson continues to look like a Little Leaguer at the plate. Yuck...he didn't even give himself a chance to get a hit that AB. Good job 7-8-9. Our offense with no hits thru 2 innings....what a shocker.
  8. Let's hope Crede gets us going, because our 7-8-9 is pathetic today.
  9. Good thing PK tried to pull that low changeup. Against a patient team (and this ump), does Vazquez have a chance of throwing less than 100 pitches prior to the 6th inning?
  10. Vazquez is going to freak out about this strike zone.
  11. QUOTE(RockRaines @ Sep 16, 2006 -> 07:21 PM) Hilarious thread. I bet you all were screaming that Mack lost us the game last night as well. His pathetic defensive play was the turning point of the game. According to Jessie Rogers, KW was on the Score last week, and he told Rogers/Offman that he has no clue why Mackowiak is in CF. Whenever he asks Ozzie about it, Ozzie says it's for more offense.
  12. I liked the Ozzie Guillen much better who said "I make the f***ing lineup". Now, he seems to be making up bulls*** excuses which makes it look like he has even less of an idea of what he's doing on the bench.
  13. QUOTE(RockRaines @ Sep 16, 2006 -> 06:22 PM) Yeah totally. I mean, who wants to blame the pitching when we could blame the best offense in baseball, and our extremely successful manager? Even Homer Hawk today said that our pitching would have been significantly better this season if Ozzie focused on putting the best defense behind them possible.
  14. These last two posts sure didn't catch my sarcasm. Sorry guys.
  15. QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Sep 16, 2006 -> 05:49 PM) ''I don't care about Frank right now,'' Guillen said. ''If Frank gets a base hit, it takes five hits to score him." Yeah, Ozzie, it's not like we have anybody like that. Ozzie made 3 real ignorant comments last night....great to know he's focused on finding a way to help this team win.
  16. QUOTE(TheOcho @ Sep 16, 2006 -> 05:36 PM) This could get ugly ... Hopefully the media won't be intimidated by Ozzie and challenge him on why he's not putting this team in the best position to succeed.
  17. QUOTE(Kalapse @ Sep 16, 2006 -> 05:33 PM) So it's not just the fans, baseball anylists and baseball writers anymore? Hawk Harrelson has now jumped on the what the hell is Ozzie thinking bandwagon? So even Ozzie's biggest backer can see how completely insane his lineups have become, wow. Don't worry, he disclaimed his thoughts by saying there's no other manager he'd rather have.
  18. QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Sep 16, 2006 -> 05:26 PM) Alot of us can't stand Ozzie now. Can you imagine what he is going to be like when the media really starts to criticize him, and he gets the "Me against the world mentality...." He'll keep threatening that he'll quit. Hopefully the door will hit him on the way out. I can't believe that after a week in which we consistently saw no hustle or intensity on key plays from guys like Pods, AJP, and Dye, Ozzie finally decided to snap and it was due to a lack of alcohol in the clubhouse.
  19. Hawk was just on the Score, and he came as close as I've ever heard from him of ripping on Ozzie. He said that it's stupid to keep putting Mackowiak out in CF. He also said that our intensity this year has been a real disappointment.
  20. So we want our best offense to be in the lineup every game. And that means that Gload's not in LF for Podsednik....why? Ozzie can't quit soon enough. Pretty soon, he's going to want a team of all 30 year old players and older. Maybe he can go manage the Giants.
  21. You don't trade Thome. However, you need to give him more rest throughout the season, and it would be wise to have a righty on the bench who you can put in the lineup against guys like C.C., Randy Johnson, etc.
  22. QUOTE(Kalapse @ Sep 16, 2006 -> 05:04 AM) It will be a beautiful day in the city of Chicago when that useless scrub is finally dismissed. It should be fun watching Pods Blak™ blow ass in the leadoff spot in '07 and beyond. At least Pierre will make contact, won't take a called 3rd strike, will hustle on defense, and can bunt. I don't want him to sign with the Sox....but I'll take anything over Pods.
