For a so called “great pitchers manger” Ozzie has no idea about when and where some of his guys need to leave the game.

 

I bet he wanted to get him the win. Not so bright.

I still go back to the initial misplay by Q in left. Don't disagree with the other criticism and bashing, but THAT's the one that pisses me off the most.

He should have never, ever been allowed to start this inning.

 

Yep. Especially since DJ hasn't pitched in forever.

Jose's days in the starting rotation may be numbered.

It's either that or the myriad Alexei horses*** plays.

Love you Carrasco. God this guy is a savior.

I actually think Ozzie does a great job with our starters for the most part.

And it’s not like this doesn’t happen ALL THE TIME with Count. This is the expected outcome. The minute trouble brews you pull him the hell out of the game.

He's actually been much better with this than he used to be. 2006 was one of the worst years I've ever seen with that.

Ozzie is good at watching pitch counts. Not so good at recognizing when pitchers have lost it.

He is a lot better than he used to be. Still has the occasional tendency to leave a guy in too long ala tonight.

watch Anderson cruise now...

 

90 errors for this team now...crappy D doesn't take you far in the playoffs

a double, a walk and an inherited run scored = savior?

Remember how bad he used to be with Garcia?

No, a 3.38 ERA in 67 IP is being a savior. It's certainly an asset to have your mop-up guy keep you in games.

Contreras might have to take some accountability for the meatball pitches, walks and hits

 

Yeah, he gave up one home run to Hairston.

 

Then he gets the next guy to hit a routine fly ball, Rios drops it.

He hit a guy on 0-2, that's his fault.

The next ball is a routine grounder to Nix. He should be out of the inning.

 

I don't want excuses saying he should pitch over mistakes. 1) He pitched over one in the previous inning 2) anytime you give a team 5 outs, they will score a lot of runs on you.

 

I don't know how the official scorer can say that the ball Cust hit was actually a hit. Nix bobbled it for 5 seconds.

He’s very good with Floyd and Danks. He seems to struggle with The Count and Buehrle. Maybe, he just feels uncomfortable being assertive with veteran pitchers

Oh yeah. Ozzie loved Freddy a bit too much.

I think he just gives them a longer rope -- thinks they can use their experience to work themselves out of trouble.

 

Castro having a nice game.

bunt bunt bunt

Castro with some great at bats. Pods going to have to get this bunt down.

Bets on whether the runner gets nailed at 2nd or 3rd?
