Just a generic comment that this is when you go back home and hope to see a new teamate to help you out, and then he said he wasnt talking about sept callups.

Misplaced_Sox Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 Why does El Duque always want to throw a plethora of pitches He is so amused with his extensive arsenal of pitches and arm angles I presume Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Tizzle Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 (edited) QUOTE(Kalapse @ Aug 31, 2005 -> 12:22 PM) Hawk laying into the media once again. For what? I'm stuck at school unable to listen to the game. And unless I missed a certain article, there hasn't been much collapse talk as I invisioned this series. Don't know what he could be complaining about. Edited August 31, 2005 by Flash Tizzle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

infohawk Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 Guys, I'm going to suggest a contrary view of today's line-up. If the Sox were fighting for their playoff lives, every starter would probably be playing. Of course Ozzie hopes to win this game, but he may also recognize that a 5-5 road trip that included Minnesota and a good-hitting Ranger team is pretty good. All you can hope for is to play .500 on the road. As a former player who has been through the grind of many a season, Ozzie knows what the stretch run is like. Resting his players like this may be an expression of confidence and that he believes the most important thing is to make sure everyone is rested and ready to go come October. Teams like the Indians, Yankees, A's and Angels probably don't have the luxury of resting players because of the tight wild card race. Lack of rest may cause them to stumble a bit down the stretch.

Ozzie expected more than a .500 road trip. After going 4-1 in the first 5 games of this trip, I guarantee you he would have been disappointed to know they'd possibly lose 4 of the next 5 games. There's no excuse not to win this series against the Rangers, as they have bad pitching to start, and we missed their two best starters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
