BFirebird Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 I am pretty sure a half asleep Manny Ramirez can still hit better than a 100% Mark Kotsay. Makes no sense to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago White Sox Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 This is a complete f***ing joke. I'm sorry but it's absolutely stupid not putting our best offense on the field while our bullpen is in shambles. We're going to need every extra run to help avoid a late game meltdown. Maybe I'm wrong, but I feel like Ozzie has done this same s*** in the past with other mid-season additions. He feels these players need a game to adjust to their new team. Unfortunately, that shouldn't even be up for consideration when your team has a month left in the season. Also, what's the over/under on LOB for Mark Kotsay tonight? I'll go with four and a half.

The Ginger Kid Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 Gammons on MLB right now, final thought was Manny and his belief he's going to have a positive impact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 People are underestimating how important it is to keep Manny fresh for next season. Also, no doubt in my mind Sox didn't want Manny to cut his braids. They might have publically said they did, but there's a reason they bought the wigs from the Dodgers.

qwerty Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 I know badger has backed ramirez in regards to him not playing today due to his flight. All that i have to say to that, is give me a break. The very least someone can do for $120,000 dollars per game is go up to the plate 4-5 times. What a pansy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
