I swear to God sometimes I think Ozzie doesn't even look at charts, or scouting reports, anything like that.

 

Ozzie doesnt need all that mumbo jumbo.

 

 

 

Sizemore 0-2 with 2k this year vs. Boone.

Lifetime: 0-9 w/ 4K

Fly out to center. Sad inning.

Ozzie doesnt need all that mumbo jumbo.

 

Clearly... and he pulls that 8 ball out of his ass, apparently.

Lifetime: 0-9 w/ 4K

 

Pathetic

And we have no speed left on the bench. This pitcher looks horrible. Who gets the 10th?

URIBE!!!!!!one111!!1

 

I think we throw Linebrink this inning, then go with Booner, then Russell. Hopefully the game doesn't last that long...

Here's a question...why not just leave Dotel in for the 9th after he looked great in the 8th?

Russell in

Russell in

 

Ugh, why? Where the hell is Boone? Ozzie's managing just f***ing horrible tonight.

Well, I know for a fact we both have b*tched about Dotel being left in for more than 1 inning before. That's about the only bullpen related move I can't complain about. Dotel should be treated as a 1 inning pitcher all year.

I can only remember one game where he pitched more than 1 inning.

Later Choo!

that's what I was thinking.

 

Nice work by Russell

Linebrink's had a strange season:

 

May: 1 ER, 1 HR

June: 1 ER, 1 HR

July: 1 ER, 1 HR?

 

Ozzie truly believes in baptism by fire.

Saving Boone for Sizemore in the 11th.

That last pitch didnt need to be checked. That slider split the plate.

I can only remember one game where he pitched more than 1 inning.

I think I remember 2... both of which he struck out 4 of 5 batters faced.. can someone stat check that?

Here comes the rain

That's what I think. It was a great pitch.

Saving Boone for Sizemore in the 11th.

Should have used Booner in the 9th, and saved Thornton for extras (11th).

Here comes the rain

And then some.

I can only remember one game where he pitched more than 1 inning.

He's gone 1.1+ innings in 7 outings this year, he didn't allow a single run in any of them.

Should have used Booner in the 9th, and saved Thornton for extras (11th).

Or used Boone in the 6th. Whatever floats your boat.

 

I think we've helped Sizemore take the AL lead in home runs tonight by feeding him righties.

He's gone 1.1+ innings in 7 outings this year, he didn't allow a single run in any of them.

 

Wow, that's impressive. So, when he's good, he's good.
