Litch already more walks than he had in 7 innings against the Sox last time he faced them.

Take the ice hitting against the Maple Leafs .Work the corners. It's Black Hawk night at the Cell in case you're wondering why I'm hockey talking.

Let's come out hitting the Maple Leafs !

QUOTE (ptatc @ Sep 9, 2008 -> 03:19 PM) it's kind of amazing but everywhere but on this board people complain about Ozzie not bunting enough, esecially when facing a good pitcher or when the offense is in a slump. Before everybody throws a fit this is not a comment to any one person just a general observation on the different perspectives of people. Our perspectives should be a little more unified today after that pitiful display of bunting we saw . Not Ozzie's fault the players didn't execute but it is his fault when they keep failing and he keeps calling for it.

QUOTE (DABearSoX @ Sep 9, 2008 -> 03:08 PM) man...you love the Peanuts LOL sometimes a picture is worth a 1000 words and Peanuts expresses that with the avatars I've been using lately.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 9, 2008 -> 03:10 PM) Because the guy we currently have in the 2 hole is dominating in his bunting ability? I think you're agreeing with me ???? Or maybe you're saying AJ shouldn't be there regardless.

QUOTE (knightni @ Sep 9, 2008 -> 02:30 PM) I know, I know... I'll work on it tonight. Every bio doesn't have to be a masterpiece. Just gitter done. I'm getting impatient for the top 13 when so little of interest is being posted.

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Sep 9, 2008 -> 02:52 PM) Based on the fact that Thome, Konerko, Dye and Cabrerra can be blasted on this board and all have out produced Nick Swisher this year and in their career. Yet everyone loves Nick Swisher. What exactly has he done this year other than sing and dance and get Hawk all giddy when he does have nice day. He sings too ? What a guy !

QUOTE (PlaySumFnJurny @ Sep 9, 2008 -> 02:27 PM) A plea for perspective: The Blue Jays are scorching hot and Burnett seemed (I couldn't watch) plain, flat nasty. This was one of the 60. Let's hope Richard and the offense man up tonight. You don't have to plea. I love the season the Sox are having. We have a chance to make the playoffs. Can't say that 80% of the time.

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 9, 2008 -> 02:26 PM) Jphat knows I agree with him that we're just not a WS contender without Quentin. However, I will cringe if I hear Hawk and DJ say that this could easily be the 3rd World Series title for Ozzie if not for the injuries to Maggs, Frank, and now Quentin. With or without him we're in a good position to win the division. Most of us thought we aren't WS contender even with Quentin. Pitching , defense and timely hitting goes a long way. All we needed was a double in a key situation like Overbay got. We have plenty of hitters who are capable . Doesn't even have to be a hitter who steps up. If Richard pitches a good 2nd game we split.

One more thing, I don't like the fact that Alexei was bunting, but maybe OZ was auditioning Alexei for the 2 hole with that call. Too bad he failed miserably.

QUOTE (jphat007 @ Sep 9, 2008 -> 02:23 PM) We knew it was going to be tough without Q. Just gotta hope the guys can step up on offense, but its just gonna be tough down the stretch. Frankly I don't even want to hear anything about Q. He's not here. No excuses. Step up or step aside.

When a guy is wild like Ryan was , you just can't automatically call for a bunt especially with one of our best clutch hitters up and having the lefty / righty matchup also. Got to remember that if a pitcher is wild , not only is he throwing balls but even balls in the strike zone might not be just where he wants them to be. If he grooves one that plays right into Ramirez' strength.

Just sad that Ozzie is too stubborn to stop calling for the bunt.

ha oh damn he is bunting. Ozzie you stubborn asshole.

Ok ALexei no swinging for the fences look at strike 1 then go up the middle or right side.

At least we won't be bunting this inning.

I was eating lunch but I got back into the thread just to see the reactions to AJ's bunt . Priceless. Crap I can't beleive they turned that DP on a slow roller. Did Thome walk to 1st ?

They need to stop showing the "it's amazing what a bunt can do" commercial.

McD that bastard purposely knelt on Alexei's legs after seeing the ball go into center.
