In all seriousness, you can't tell me that 29 other teams in MLB don't know what the fans here supposedly know about Ozzie as a manager. The Florida Marlins wouldn't have been chasing that hard after a guy under contract if he was that big of an idiot tactician.

I miss him.

So not only do they want to force and coerse people into joining, but now they fine you for "disloyalty"? http://www.redstate.com/laborunionreport/2...fety-violation/

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 12, 2011 -> 05:14 AM) Someone in the game thread last night mentioned a stat where Matt Thornton has more blown saves in his career than saves. Insane. How the f*** can we keep trotting him out there in that role?!?! The save stat for a career set up man? I hope this is supposed to be green.

QUOTE (hawksfan61 @ Apr 12, 2011 -> 07:50 AM) He should not be working through it in a 1-0 game. 3-0 or 4-0 game, a 1-0 game has no margin for error and you can't bring in a guy who has given up missles his past couple outings. Hey that Will Ohman guy looked really good in his last outing as did Tony Pena!

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Apr 11, 2011 -> 10:22 PM) I respectfully disagree with you and others who have made good points. Believe me, I recognize how fragile the closer role is. I just can't get behind Matt's stuff not being sufficient enough. We're not talking Fernando Rodney or Brandon Lyons here. Does anyone else remember what Matt looked like for years before he got here?

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 11, 2011 -> 09:48 PM) Dunn could play 1B and Teahen could go to the OF. If Dunn was well enough to play 1B, he would have been DHing this game.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 11, 2011 -> 09:46 PM) Yep, he's letting Pierre bat. Comical Ozzie He has to. Even if Dunn were to PH and homer, he has zero OFs.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Apr 11, 2011 -> 09:43 PM) This team should be 9-1 after tonight. This is so frustrating. If we are dabbling in the should be's, you have to give back the five runs with two outs against Soria.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 11, 2011 -> 09:41 PM) Castro could make contact for once tonight... Or he could just look a strike three.

Castro could make contact for once tonight...

Damn

Crain pitching like he is pitching against the Sox.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 11, 2011 -> 09:27 PM) Morel has no chance against this guy. Really uninspiring managing by Ozzie. Why can't our prospects ever hit a slider? What is his choice there? If he uses Dunn, they give him the intentional pass.

Extras.

QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 11, 2011 -> 09:24 PM) guys, buehrle was probably tired, and every manager is going to suck when your bullpen is playing like s***. I'm quoting this just because it needs to be said again. There is no way that Buehrle was taken out by ozzie. Mark had to tell him he was tired.

He just Pierre'd that one.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 11, 2011 -> 09:21 PM) Replacing a snail with a crippled donkey. What's with the Adam Dunn crack?

Adam Dunn putting on the batting gloves...

Hi to the 100 new people joining this thread in the last 10 minutes...

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Apr 11, 2011 -> 09:09 PM) Doubled, I think. He of course would have homered had he known he had the opportunity to get 10k. And then flipped his bat at the handicapped kid in the front row...

Its obvious that Matt Thornton is sleeping with Juan Pierres wife.

One down. Crain warming.
