Not a good play there.

So what good does looking him back do, if you know, you don't actually get him back?

We weren't bad in '06. Same team basically except Rowand was Anderson.

 

Uribe didn't have a stone glove at SS.

Oh well... time to find something else to do before they frustrate me into breaking something....

wonder if he's going to be benched this inning

 

He absolutely should not be starting tomorrow. Ozzie can't make statements to the media like he did and then get made to look like a fool.

Poreda didn't do a damn thing wrong that inning.

Fix Mark's last name in the title. he's a cornerstone of the franchise for criss' sake.

can't take this - i'm out.

 

here's hoping for a rally.

Speed kills.

Not only that, but he should have looked him back and then went for the force out at second. This is the worst defensive game by the Sox infield in my life time.

Alexei really is Alfonso Soriano.

 

He screws up all the routine plays.

I seriously hate Alexei Ramirez right now.

I apologize... but this isn't just a one day rash decision.

This kid was awesome last year... but somewhere along the lines he has decided he is a superstar... and I am questioning if he is even a starter in this league anymore.

You gotta get the runner BREAKING back to 3rd before you go to first. Worst thing then, if your not able to get the guy at first, is you now have a force at home.

Oh well this game is over now.

 

 

How can you say that? This game has been back and forth the whole time.

Except for Alfonso is still a productive offensive player, despite being an idiot.

A play I would do every time I could is fake the throw to first. You will get the runner every single time.

Not this year.

i blame the typo if we lose

Man what a terrible play again... wonder if Oz will just keep letting Alexei make these bonehead plays or will he move him or bench his ass for a game.

 

I think it's good that Ozzie is finding out now, so by next year this s*** is out of his system. Ramirez is not a shortstop. Even putting aside his idiocy this week, the man has 0 range to his right. Forget it. Move along. He's not a shortstop.

Alexei shoulda been yanked during the pitching change. Letting Freel score and not looking him back to the bag was inexcusable as well.

Not sure what the exact numbers are (Qwerty, Kalapse probably know this right off the top of their heads), but I didn't think the defense was anywhere close to 2005 caliber in 2006. Again, I could be wrong.

The left side of the infield has cost us at least 3 runs in this game. Boy oh boy. And that part of the field is supposed to be our bright future too.

 

Not only that, but he should have looked him back and then went for the force out at second. This is the worst defensive game by the Sox infield in my life time.

 

He looked him back when he was ONE THIRD OF THE WAY DOWN THE LINE. You have to throw behind him there. Just dumb.

Not this year.

 

By the end of the year, he'll have 30 homers and be hitting around .270

And my moron Cubs friend (who happens to be one of my best friends) texts me talking s***. That fool is a ghost to me for the next 3 weeks. I loathe Cubs fans.
