This game may tell us a lot about our team.

Unless it gets rained out ...

It's at home against a guy who has been outstanding this year in Greinke.

The way we've folded against most "good" pitchers indicates we will have a s***

offensive game.

After the Oz/KW flap, will we concentrate and smash the baseball?

Or will Greinke pitch a 2 hitter?

I hate to be negative nancy so I won't be.

Any word on the big changes??

No trades, Walker is still the hitting coach, Ozzie is still managing. If there are changes, it will be to the line-up which isn't surprising.

Swisher is going to wear his jock strap on the outside of his pants in a further attempt to slumpbust .

Just heard this line-up on ESPN 1000:

 

Cabrera SS

AJP C

CQ LF

Konerko 1B

Thome DH

Dye RF

Swisher CF

Crede 3B

Ramirez 2B

 

Doesn't look like many changes, except somehow Konerko and Thome moved up in the line-up!

Maybe Ozzie has Konerko and Swisher batting left handed???

What a joke...nice big balls ozzie!!!!

 

Dye behind thome and Kong???

I'd be ok with that line up if Dye separated Konerko and Thome.

I'm not really sure what I was looking for, but this certainly isn't it.

This changes if someone can call this a change are better than having Ozzie Guillen comeback as a player.

 

Ha,ha,ha.

 

 

What a joke!

 

 

 

I wonder why this team has not insubordinated against Guillen yet. Actually, my boy Alexei did that the other day when he did not bunt the ball. Maybe, this is what they have to do against a guy that likes to run his mouth often.

 

Guillen has no plan b. He should shut up.

lol @ Ozzie's changes... big change!

This is why you can't erupt like Ozzie did. Buster Olney had a great column about it yesterday if you get ESPN Insider.

The good news is that Brian Anderson has been appropriately punished for daring to get a hit or two on Sunday.

it's really too bad that he's getting hammered for blowing his cool. He's pissed off that these guys aren't hitting. Guess what? So are the rest of us. I for one like him throwing the hitters under the bus, and Kenny too. Ozzie pales in comparison to the s*** earl weaver got away with.

You don't talk about making changes...and then do nothing. That makes this type of rant worthless.

I have no problem with that tonight....Anderson would likely have no prayer against Greinke.

Agreed. Not mad at the blow up. Im mad that hes proving "talk is cheap"

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 3, 2008 -> 09:54 PM)

No...but maybe Swisher will take 6 pitches in each at bat and run his pitch count up.

How many times will I think he may get a shot to only have to see Konerko and Swisher trot out there. Now he can sit on the bench all week, go 0-4 next Sunday and we will get to hear how he can not hit.

 

I really thought the move was going to be that Anderson will start over Swisher, oh well.

I figured the rant was worthless - just blowing off steam.

I'm with you. But Ozzie has to realize what the media is like these days. ESPN is making it to be a huge deal. Sneeze without covering his mouth and the media will spin it into a negative.

Hell then, if you're not going to play Anderson today, take Alexei and put him in CF and stick Uribe at 2nd. Uribe's actually 5/16 with a homer and a .915 OPS against Greinke in his career. (Swisher is 2/5 with 2 k's). Or play swisher and sit Konerko and his 3/28 career against Greinke. Or hell, at least do SOMETHING different.
