5 ball in a row...yea, let's f***ing swing!

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Apr 19, 2011 -> 08:54 PM) People keep asking who's out there? If you want Ozzie and KW gone who do you replace them with? The answer is I have no f***ing clue. I didn't know who I wanted when we were trying to replace Manuel back in '03. Certainly not Ozzie. And anybody who says they wanted Ozzie outside of knowing he once played SS for the White Sox is lying. Nobody knew who the hell KW was outside of that he once played for the Sox. That's it. I want a Theo Epstein, Andrew Friedman, Alex ASFSADFSGA type. A younger, not so stubborn GM, who realizes how critical long-term success is. Not just emptying out your eggs into one basket every year. A GM that's more innovative. Not so old-school. That realizes the importance of advanced statistical analysis. The game is changing, evolving every year. For a manager, I want one that realizes the times were in. The league were in. One who's not stubborn to a fault and gets the most out of his personal. Realizes his players' strength and weaknesses. I don't want entertainment. Ozzie's swearing and soundbites were cool back in '06. It's old now. Wow. I love this!

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Apr 19, 2011 -> 08:40 PM) Alexei Q Konerko Dunn Rios Ajp Beckham Morel/Omar I really like that.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Apr 19, 2011 -> 08:37 PM) Yup, guy has been on fire and he and Omar have the 2 highest obp so far. I'm willing to try anything. Couldn't be worse then Pierre. How would you fill in the rest of the lineup?

QUOTE (Knackattack @ Apr 19, 2011 -> 08:35 PM) Is a helluvalot better than Pierre doing it. Agreed.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Apr 19, 2011 -> 08:32 PM) I'm going to go the opposite of a speed lineup and play for the 3 run homer and put Teahen first for a few days a week and maybe Omar as well. Teahen leading off?

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Apr 19, 2011 -> 08:27 PM) To be fair the order has been in place officially for less than 3 weeks. But thank god he realized his lineup is s***. I would also like to see less of Gordon in the 2 hole. I would love to see Alexei, Q, Konerko, Dunn as our 2-5. Can't be worse.

@MDGonzales Mark Gonzales Oz thinking of dropping Dunn in the order, thinks he and others are pressing. Wants team to relax or it will kill his liver. Dropping Dunn in the order...wow, everyone has been saying that for months, but yet Ozzie just realizes this.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Apr 19, 2011 -> 08:00 PM) FIRE GUILLEN! Smartest thing that has been said on this board in days.

Good thing we bunted! f*** you Ozzie!

Can we even confirm that Ozzie is awake?

QUOTE (TitoMB @ Apr 19, 2011 -> 02:34 PM) Pray for a rain delay double header? Seriously, hasn't Danks pitched on 4/20 for 3 out of the last 4 seasons? Maybe OG has a side hobby.. Judging by some of the things Ozzie has done the last few years, I think this is a safe bet.

Did anyone think we would win with that lineup Ozzie put out there? It looked like a spring training game.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 19, 2011 -> 08:54 AM) He is Mike Ditka. He had one fantastic season followed by several years of disappointing teams. He needs to go. 2005 is long gone. Couldn't have said it better myself. Sox fans deserve better then dealing with Ozzie year in and year out.

QUOTE (DukeofChicago88 @ Apr 18, 2011 -> 07:12 PM) I think its time to admit that Ozzie sucks.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 18, 2011 -> 07:04 PM) This team looks dead. Its ok, we have a manager that will get this team going!

Can we trade Ozzie?

good thing we bunted.

Watch him bunt here....

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 17, 2011 -> 03:14 PM) Scioscia just shoved it up Ozzie's ass with those pitching changes. Angels fans are so lucky to have a good manager.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 17, 2011 -> 01:45 PM) That doesn't matter...if Sox have a disasterous road trip vs Tampa/Detroit/NYY, and go something like 2-9, then he'll be on the hot seat. You really think they will fire him? I hope you're right.

We f***ing suck! But good thing we picked up Ozzie's option!

QUOTE (PeavyTime @ Apr 17, 2011 -> 10:40 AM) Gardenhire: A manger who knows what he is doing. If something is broke, fix it. It must be nice to have someone like that.

QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 15, 2011 -> 12:34 PM) Do you guys think this game will be played? I have tickeets tonight. I wouldn't mind if they started the game, went a few innings, then called it. At least it would get Weaver out of there!

If we have a save situation in the 9th, Sergio better be out there.
