One question: Why the HELL is Rios in the 7th spot?!?!!??!?!? The guy is hitting the ball just as well as ANYONE on this damn team. The Twins seem to be just fine batting Span, Mauer, Morneau etc in order as lefties- the LRLR thing isn't good enough. Talk about over thinking the game - Ozzie needs to get a bench coach to talk some sense into him, what a joke

I've gone to 2 or 3 games by myself, it's completely acceptable :-)

I've seen him do it for years from time to time- take a look at some of the old highlights from 05 etc you will see it...

QUOTE (chisoxt @ Apr 18, 2010 -> 03:27 AM) The pen has been OK, but don't grt ahead of yourself in praising them...note that in the very few game-on-the-line situations that Thorton and Jenks have had been in, they have been shakey at best. Exactly, let's not kid ourselves.

Championship teams don't lose too many games like this- and it seems as if we have lost 5 games already in this fashion this year where it's ours for the taking and we just piss it away in whatever way that works to ensure the loss. What a joke, and Ozzie should get a bench coach next to him that could talk some sense into the guy, for the love of God

Maybe we're just not as good as we were hoping this year? Last year we were pathetic offensively and haven't upgraded there whatsoever I don't think you can say, although we got faster for sure...doesn't look like it's translating into runs

And this ballgame is ova! Mercy

Ozzie has no clue. Really. It's so embarrassing. Just like him leaving in Liney last year at Wrigley, this is laughable. His in game decisions with pitchers are probably the WORST in baseball- and I don't think I am exaggerating here

Always amazing to see AJ throw someone out. Seems like it happens one out of ten times.

AJ needs to lose that beard and go blonde again so he can start hitting in my opinion

New batting stance for Quentin? Didn't seem NEARLY as crouched on that first pitch?

Who else has given up on this team this year? :-P

Let's get some runs here boys!

QUOTE (Chet Kincaid @ Apr 10, 2010 -> 12:35 PM) THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKIN' ABOUT RIOS!! It's 2-0 if Ozzie has ANY F**KING CLUE on how to make a lineup

Is there anyone worse at in game decisions than Ozzie? Last night with Linebrink, today with MK again in the 5 hole when Rios is hitting the ball harder than anyone on our team?!?!!??!!? this is a JOKE

Is anyone else disgusted about our offense? We look horrible, like we'll be lucky to average 2 runs a game....maybe just the overall negativity on the forum is rubbing off on me ;-)

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Apr 6, 2010 -> 01:40 PM) There are like 3 players in baseball who wouldn't have beat that out. You don't see a lot of double plays turned on incredibly weak choppers to second. Is Thome one of them? I know Konerko is... :-)

Put Rios in the 5th spot. End of story.

QUOTE (Wanne @ Apr 5, 2010 -> 03:26 PM) Perfect pitch for Alex to hit...he had full extension. Rios was really short and quick there...nice to see

Why do I get the impression that Kotsay is the new Erstad, someone that Hawk will go on and on about how glad he's here etc no matter what he does?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 5, 2010 -> 02:36 PM) loaded again for Kotsay... no one out. Hopefully he can come through this time- if not look for Rios to go deep

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 3, 2010 -> 12:53 PM) Oh no! Kotsay got a 2-rbi single in the 3 hole. WHAAAAAA! So you like Kotsay in the 3 hole huh?

Kotsay GIDP If Ozzie bats him 3rd ONE TIME this year, it will be one time too much

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Mar 31, 2010 -> 05:03 PM) Anyone use it? Does it work well when plugged into an HD TV? Ie, am I going to be able to get near HD TV quality? I do since I live overseas. I just got a new laptop and HDMI data cord that I will be plugging into my HD TV- no idea how that will turn out but the picture quality on the monitor screen is EXCELLENT if you have a high speed connection. Praying it will look even better on the HDTV! I am hoping this year that MLB.TV doesn't blow up (as usual) on opening day- the last 3 years on opening day so many people hit the system that it inevitably crashes it....fingers crossed
