I believe this would be the Cuban Pitching Crisis.

seriously folks. this is not the Twins I know. I dont have the stat infron tof me, but the batting average is terrible with the bases loaded

This team has not been very enjoyable to watch lately.

 

Outside of the Orioles series, they've been simply average since the Indians series after the ASB.

Jon Adkins time! Yaya!

Thanks

Setting up a nice come back against that sissy Lohse...or as "Gardy" calls him, "Lohsey"

 

 

Count: I command thee to cease

Now lets look at this the anti Ozzie way logically.

 

Against Lohse

 

Gooch is hitting .667. Lets not play him tonight.

Arow is hitting .292. Bat him 7th.

 

 

Perez and Uribe are a total of 0-13 lifetime. Lets bat them 1 and 2.

Yet we don't need Griffey Jr? :D

Contreras' f***ing pea brain trumps all other meaningless split stats.

Nah...what good would he be? :P

Is Iguchi hurt? If not, I have one thing to say to the White Sox "Don't take you foot off the f***ing accelerator!" I get the bad feeling we're just sitting back and hoping we can coast the rest of the way without things getting tight.

YIKES! :ph34r:

 

are those stats for real??

Hawk's about an inning away from blaming the umps, isn't he?

Gooch is not hurt. Ozzie just is letting yesterdays reserves play today. They got cheated out of their game.

What a terrible television angle!!! I thought that was gone for sure.

Nice homer call there

That was the worst camera work ever.

Yes they are. But Ozzie doesnt have these stats or doesnt use them. He just goes on gut and feel and who is giving him the occasional handjob.

Yep, Ozzie is clueless. Nothing like the first game of the Twins series to set the tone.

I have a bad feeling we are going to see Ozzie get completely outmanaged in the post season...ala Manuel vs Pinela.

:fyou Stewart!!

That wasn't a very difficult catch. Even that has-been Griffey Jr. could have caught that.

We just spotted a team who cant score 4 runs but who has the 3rd best pitching staff.

We have a lineup that the Tampa Bay Devils Rays outhit. And in about an inning they will start going for the dong if they havent already ala corpseball.

 

 

Then we face Radke and Santana.

 

Glad my tickets are 9 focking bucks tomorrow night. I wont feel bad when Ozzie puts another turd of a lineup tomorrow because Timo is great in his eyes.
