QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 14, 2011 -> 10:02 AM) I'd agree with that statement for sure. He is prone to long slumps and pouting. Not exactly what you want setting the table for you. How can you prove that? Where as I can prove he's lazy, this seems like a stretch....

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jun 10, 2011 -> 11:03 AM) Completely agree. I also think Ozzie has done a great job handling guys like Sale, Morel, Beckham, and Ramirez. And quite frankly those guys are part of the future of the organization. He's also done great with Danks making sure to publicly back him and telling him to forget about what happens, etc. Love the way he's handled Rios and Dunn too. The reality is we are paying both of them money to produce and while they havent', Ozzie is smart enough to know our best chances to truly be a dangerous team is to get them firing and the way he has publicly handled there struggles and from what it appears (also internally), I've been impressed. Whether his strategy ends up working with the guys, who knows, but regardless I like that approach. I can think of a few times that I got pissed at a decision he made as a manager, but I read the game threads, a lot of people will b**** if he does and b**** if he doesn't and that just isn't fair to any manager. Oh, did I mention, Ozzie also seemed to do a nice job after Thornton struggled. And I think the way he handled that situation might be partially why Thornton has been able to turn things around (he is also way too good to be that bad for an extended period of time, without some sort of injury). Really????????

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 10, 2011 -> 10:07 PM) Of course Sergio s*** the bed, but there was no excuse to have him still in the game. Maybe KW should get off his ass and get us another righty in the pen. Maybe JR better get off his ass and fire Ozzie and Kenny

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jun 2, 2011 -> 08:42 AM) Well I can think of two big-time guys he played with. One was known as the Horse and one had a mysterious surgery in Vienna. I could name others I was suspicious of, too, but the list would be long. Also this further anoints Frank as my favorite player of all-time. Man I really am gonna try to get out to Cooperstown when he is inducted. Not only a clean guy, but such a good person. Never in trouble outside of baseball. Think we should make it the largest crowd ever ....

Winning despite Ozzie

Morel at the plate looks like the short blonde kid from Hoosiers shooting free throws from between his knees

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ May 30, 2011 -> 07:28 PM) So we are bunting to get to slappy. Dumb. he should be fired during the middle of the inning

Ozzie's fault .... worst manager in baseball

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 30, 2011 -> 06:44 PM) JP and a DP again. shocker

Atta boy AJ - way to stay with it Fire Ozzie; DFA Rios and Pierre

Attaboy Jesse ...

QUOTE (Andrew @ May 18, 2011 -> 11:46 PM) He sure was great. I hope it's here and here to stay. Sorely needed and that was an inspirational as it can get. So inspirational that it inspired our offense to score zero runs in the final eight innings ...

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ May 17, 2011 -> 04:05 PM) At some point Kenny just needs to tell Ozzie "I'm bringing up Dayan, you need to play him and that's that". I mean look at the crowds. There is no interest in this team. At some point Jerry just needs to fire Kenny and Ozzie

QUOTE (chw42 @ May 17, 2011 -> 11:14 PM) I'd vote Pauley before Santos. No question about it

QUOTE (T R U @ May 16, 2011 -> 12:43 PM) Pierre > Pierzynski ouch

QUOTE (fathom @ May 16, 2011 -> 08:48 PM) Jeez Ozzie...leaving Jackson in a long time when he has less than his best. Ozzie made a bad in-game decision? I'm floored

QUOTE (Real @ May 16, 2011 -> 08:46 PM) right now he's the easiest hitter in our lineup to setup for the strikeout, he honestly cannot understand what pitchers are doing to him right now, it's so obvious how the league is pitching to Beckham, the most basic way to strike a hitter out. they're changing the hitters eye level, hard high, slow down and he falls for it every. f***ing. time. Heaven forbid he had a batting coach working with him on it

Alexi and Dunn two of the worst looking strikeouts this year...

QUOTE (bucket-of-suck @ May 12, 2011 -> 09:53 PM) Juan Pierre is sabermetrically the WORST player in MLB right now. Don't need sabermetrics to determine that he sucks ... Why Ozzie, why? Some needs to Happy Gilmore JP as soon as possible ...

... and everyone says AJ adds no value. Coop for manager!

Winning

...... and Rios still sucks

Holy crap! Three hits in a row.................. WOW Maybe it helps that I'm watching a rockumentary on VH1 classic. Feel like I'm watching a team of yesteryear
