QUOTE(winninguglyin83 @ Jun 2, 2005 -> 02:54 AM) For the record, the callers are murdering Ozzie on the post-game radio show. ' About what exactly?

QUOTE(3E8 @ Jun 2, 2005 -> 02:53 AM) If you would've rather seen Politte and Marte even though they pitched consecutive days, raise your hand. I'm so sick of babying bullpen arms. Marte hasn't thrown many pitches at all the last few games. Marte also clearly gave us the best chance of getting out of the 7th without allowing a run. No doubt in my mind.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Jun 2, 2005 -> 02:48 AM) That's so wrong. Says who, Hawk? I'm just going by what I see on the field. I'm not impressed at all with the Angels team we've faced in the last two weeks.

QUOTE(ScottPodRulez22 @ Jun 2, 2005 -> 02:46 AM) we did just take 4/7 games agaist the angels if this was other years then we probaly would have lost 6 maybe even all 7 And they were missing Vlad and K-Rod (besides tonight). This Angels team without Vlad is nothing special.

QUOTE(winninguglyin83 @ Jun 2, 2005 -> 02:45 AM) things could be worse folks. The Yankees have lost two straight to Kansas City. Carrasco beats Randy Johnson. Perspective, everybody I'd rather lose because we got out-pitched or out-hit anyday instead of losing because decisions made by our manager. I wonder if Hawk will chalk up this game as one of the 42 you lose no matter what each year?

Give it a day.

Hell, with all the criticism with how Ozzie used the bullpen tonight....at least he used pitchers in pitching situations. By far, the worst decision Ozzie made tonight was playing Timo at 1b. Contreras likely could have easily gone 7 innings, and got to our strong bullpen pitchers, if not for Timo's error. There's no f***ing excuse in the world for Timo to be playing 1b.

QUOTE(Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 2, 2005 -> 02:38 AM) WTF was Walker picthing....at all? Agreed. I hope he enjoys his plane trip back to the minors....or maybe even being given his release papers. The guy clearly has nothing left.

I bet Jeff Brantley has the biggest smile on his face right now. Why don't any of these announcers make a comment back at Ozzie about how terrible of a hitter he was? Ozzie's lack of respect for people off the field is sickening.

QUOTE(Brian @ Jun 2, 2005 -> 02:33 AM) At first I was thinking that who would play SS if Konerko PH for Uribe and tied it with a double, and forgot Iguchi was on the bench and Willie probably if needed, could of moved to SS. Between Ozuna, Willie, Crede, and Harris still being in the game, we would have had no problems filling out our infield.

QUOTE(Hideaway Lights @ Jun 2, 2005 -> 02:32 AM) If K-Rod throws that same nasty curve to Konerko on two strikes, he's out too. Sorry. Wow. How about if he throws those same fastballs he threw to Uribe, PK might have put a charge into one. I've always been a believer in the philosophy that if you're going to lose, lose with your best. I guess I shouldn't expect nothing else from Ozzie than to f*** up.....again.

QUOTE(Hideaway Lights @ Jun 2, 2005 -> 02:30 AM) Actually Uribe. I think Konerko wouldn't have seen a single fastball in the sequence and would've either struck out or grounded out weakly. Or walked easily like Thomas did, where K-Rod didn't want to throw a fastball. Name me one other manager that would have kept their biggest power threat on the bench? I can't believe how some people try to defend moves by Ozzie that have absolutely no explanation.

Can a manager suffer a season-ending injury? That might be our best chance to make the playoffs.

QUOTE(Hideaway Lights @ Jun 2, 2005 -> 02:26 AM) when has konerko ever seen an offspeed pitch he can hit, let alone read properly? About the same time that Uribe hasn't chased one. K-Rod wasn't getting his slider over the plate. Who would you rather have facing a pitcher who only has confidence in his fastball, Konerko or Uribe?

QUOTE(Spiff @ Jun 2, 2005 -> 02:25 AM) I could say the same for you and just about everyone else in this thread who thinks they know everything about not only what is happening, but also what will happen and what should have happened. The biggest problem I have is that everyone in the world knew that Timo shouldnt be at 1b, and that Walker should have never been brought in. That's not just bad luck for Ozzie....that's bad managing.

And Ozzie letting our biggest power threat in PK sit on the bench in the 9th inning concludes just a terrible game for Ozzie.

We have our biggest power threat sitting on the bench with 2 outs, with the tying run at the plate. That basically concludes just an astonishingly bad coaching night.

f*** YOU OZZIE GUILLEN! That was the worst managerial game I've ever seen.

Konerko should be hitting for Uribe here.

PK for Uribe?

QUOTE(Spiff @ Jun 2, 2005 -> 02:07 AM) Yeah because Politte would have been flawless pitching a third straight day, Marte hasn't struggled at all lately, and Hermanson is soooo much different when he's pitching from behind. Shut the hell up and deal with reality. Well, good thing you're not managing us then.

On the bright side, at least Dye's deep drive in the 9th inning got out last night, compared to tonight.

QUOTE(sircaffey @ Jun 2, 2005 -> 02:07 AM) I sure hope so. Get someone who HAS to pitch the 8th like Wagner. That way Ozzie has less innings to mismanage... I'm concerned we're going to need someone for the 9th inning also soon.

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Jun 2, 2005 -> 02:06 AM) Are you guys ready to view some of the filthiest stuff in all of baseball? We already saw Kevin Walker pitch.

QUOTE(sircaffey @ Jun 2, 2005 -> 02:05 AM) Did Ozzie really care if we won tonight? It didn't appear so... The best comment I saw all night was that Ozzie should get pulled, since he's had a bad couple of days.
