Thank you, Captain Obvious. When did I ever say that Beckham should have bunted? I think it's a horrible idea. But that's not why we're losing.

 

Like I said, we have 8 hits AS A TEAM in what is now 19.1 innings. Those 2 bunts aren't the reason we're losing.

I understand that we're not coming through, but you don't deny your 2nd best hitter opportunities to hit.

IIRC Pierre is extremely streaky.

So we have a bad offense and then our manager makes it worse.

 

Ozzie isn't the whole problem, but the fact that he's supposed to be helping the team when he's clearly not is pissing me off.

 

THIS IS OZZIE'S OFFENSE! He's had a love for Pierre for years, and he wanted a DH by committee.

Strike zone sure has gotten larger.

 

At least there are 159 more to go.

The umpire wants to go home.

Slav. When you're right, you're right.

I'm not sure if you're being facetious cecious or not.

 

But when you lose 2 straight to the f***ing Indians with the crap pitching staff they're running out, and you can muster 8 hits in 20 innings, I'm not going to blame 2 f***ing bunts on the 2 losses.

Twins are about to take 3 of 4 in anaheim

 

Anaheim sucks now, but the Twins are a stellar team this season.

Game One was perfection.

Two and Three? Wow. Can't win a series at home vs. the Tribe.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 8, 2010 -> 11:08 PM)
We got a gift run because the ump refused to ring up Quentin. We're not getting breaks because we're striking out a ton tonight.

 

Ah. I turned it on way after we were apparently done scoring for the night...

What a debacle.

2010 reminds me of 2009.

F me...

 

Thanks Ozzie!

Man, I can see why bunting is a great idea.

Game one was not perfection. We couldn't hit with RISP.

pretty much...nice job Kenny.

Since this is Ozzie's roster, KW is going to have a much shorter leash with the struggling before he does something about it

I want my time back.

So can Cleveland. It won them the game.

I agree with you, man. I'm just heated, right now. The bunts are a part of the bigger problem for this team. That problem is Ozzie.

The Twins will take three of four against the Angels in Anaheim while we lose two of three to the Indians at home. It's obvious who the team to beat in this division is.

Not being facetious at all. Bunting with Beckham is an epic fail for two reason.

 

1. He's a very good hitter.

2. It gives the Tribe every reason to pitch around our best power bat and put him on 1st.

 

It's one of the dumbest moves I've seen, and it was done twice.

Well, on the pregame show tonight, they had a very strange segment about how bad the attendance was last year. They went on to say the club is really hoping to get off to a good start and that the weather is good to make up for how bad the attendance was last season.

Yeah, it definitely wasn’t them hitting the ball and driving runners in. it was advancing a runner to second.
