I didn't say Santana's career numbers. I said in his recent outings (meaning his last 10 starts or so). We destroyed him early on about three years ago, when they thought he had some arm issues. We ended up beating him like 16-7 in a game.

He allowed 7 runs in his first outing Vs the Sox in '04, that basically killed his ERA Vs the Sox for the season.

this no cussing rule sucks

Now Mr. 6th inning just plunked someone.

 

How many fishing times does it have to happen before ozzie figures it out.

 

I still blame whoever put on that golf outing in Venezuela during the offseason.

For fish's sake Ozzie... Get him out of here.

 

 

I bet you the pen isnt even up. As I post this Neal cotts starts to get loose.

 

We will get the same quotes tomorrow. He was dealing, we dont know what happened.

good game ozzie

Clockwork. fishing clockwork.

Don't you just love thought that we have Cotts warming up, and Ozzie let Vazquez start the inning with 2 of the first 3 batters being lefty?

This is unreal.

come on...gb...dp

Get off your a s s Ozzie!

 

Thank You!

Lead is evaporating. 6th inning blues.

this no cussing rule sucks

This has so much to do with the game thats on right now. Really.

There's a reason why Jim Thome has the 2nd most runs in the AL and 4th most in baseball. It would be foolish to change the order like that.

Dye's OBP is almost identical to Thome's, plus he has better speed. And is more likely to score from 1st on a 2b by Thome or PK. Not to mention, he is or best hitter for AVG..........That being said, I doubt Oz will make that change, but just a thought

Good job Ozzie...leave Vazquez in long enough to possibly get the loss.

About fishing time he goes to Neal, what took him so long?

YAYYYYYYYYYY OZZIE

 

YOU SHOULD DEFINITELY HAVE LET HIM PUT THOSE 2 RUNNERS ON AFTER HE GAVE UP THE HOMER

 

THAT'S SOME QUALITY MANAGING RIGHT THERE

 

Q-U-A-L-I-T-Y

Does anyone make a 2 run lead seem smaller than Vazquez?

Well just like clockwork.

 

Thanks Ozzie, your banner management of pitchers is amazing.

 

How come everyone on earth can see this, but Ozzie.

At least he pulled him before Vaz gave up the lead for a change.

So if we somehow make the playoffs we should have a 3 man rotation. Jon, Jose and Brandon.

I would've called time out, driven to Charlotte or wherever he is, driven back, and brought in Politte there if he needed another right hander before Markakis.

This is why Ozzie will be manager of the year again in 2006.

He was released.

YAYYYYYYYYYY OZZIE

Yeah. That 318 foot homer was really crushed.

Dye's OBP is almost identical to Thome's, plus he has better speed. And is more likely to score from 1st on a 2b by Thome or PK. Not to mention, he is or best hitter for AVG..........That being said, I doubt Oz will make that change, but just a thought

Maybe I just don't understand what it would accomplish, the last thing the team needs to do is juggle the 3-4-5 seeing how they've been more productive than any other tandom in all of baseball. Also, I wouldn't say Dye is even that much faster than Thome, Jermaine seems to have lost a few steps since last year, it seems he has a piano strapped to his back now a days.
