Typical Ozzie.

Typical Ozzie.

 

Exactly, he'd rather have Garland face the righty, Thornton the switch hitter, and then go to the bullpen. I'd much rather he just let the righty start the inning. I don't think his style of managing has worked in the last year and this season.

 

I hope Ozzie knows that it's Orlando Cabrera that owns Garland, and not Francisco Cabrera.

We haven't used our main bullpen guys in ages. Go for the f***ing win Ozzie!

 

Thanks for leaving him in Ozzie for that batter. I hate you!

All Cabrera had was a .400+ lifetime average against Garland. That's obviously not important in the 8th inning with a well rested bullpen.

With that low of a pitch count, I would've let Garland try to pitch over it. Have him build some confidence. Everytime he sends someone out there, and then immediately pulled it makes it look like he's making a mistake or second doubting himself.

You have to know your personnel.

thornton has NO pickup move

hes really easy to read

Nice

Actually a decent offspeed pitch. If MacDougal's coming in, better see only sliders.

Cabrera owns Garland. Low pitchcount or not. It shouldn't be a question of instilling confidence, but winning ballgames.

I was wondering why he never got any ass. Thanks.

I understand, but I would hope Garland would have enough confidence and maturity that after 7 innings, he understands being taken out.
