Dopes on ESPN Message Board

One guy on the White Sox message board over their said we should fire Ozzie because he cant handle the pitching staff. He says we should bring in Carlton Fisk to manage because he was a catcher and knows how to handle them.

 

 

Where is Carlton Fisk? We need to track him down and make him our new manager. Ozzie cannot manage his pitchers, but surely one of the greatest catchers ever can. Im surprised hes not managing elsewhere now. Unfortunately, Ive heard that we snubbed him and so he might not want to manage for the same guys that snubbed him, Einhorn and Reinsdorf...

My responce to this dope.....

Yea, ok. Fire one of the most popular managers the Sox have had in a lONG time and bring in a guy who hasnt mangaged before, left the team on bad terms, and has a nice job with the Red Sox. Sounds like a real sound stratagy to me

I can't say Ozzie is the reason pitchers are crapping out on us as we speak.

 

Maybe he let them throw a few more pitches than Ghandi would, but how much responsibility can be layed on Ozzie for:

 

1. Loaiza showing up to the camp throwing 2-3 mph slower than he did last year, thus rendering his cutter, slider, change less effective?

 

2. Garland worrying more about a no-hitter than whether the team wins or not, and generally having the most erratic curveball in baseball?

 

3. Buerhle giving up 3-run homers in the 1st inning to no-name scrubs?

 

4. Schoenweiss's change-up not working?

 

5. Munoz, Diaz, Rauch choking in a worst way?

 

6. Wright being forced to pitch a full year after it became apparent his arm is f***ed up?

 

7. Williams telling him to use Koch as a closer?

 

8. 96-mph fastball-throwing Politte being the pussiest puss that ever puss'd?

 

9. Cotts not having much in a way of control or consistent secondary arsenal?

 

10. Jackson being 5 years past his prime?

 

 

Give me a f***ing break, what can Fisk do with this band of clowns and chokers? Can he bring Glavine and Smolts with him? I'll even settle for Leiter.

Meaningless fact: the "guy" quoted by AHB_2000 is none other than.......

Well, that explains a lot. LMFAO. :lol:

 

Our former windsock is blowing around elsewhere. Why does this not surprise me?

That wasn't a rhetorical question, I was actually expecting an answer.

 

:P
