It appears Ozzie is on that left-righty thingie again

 

He's made Morel a platoon guy without even knowing if he's a platoon guy. No young talent will ever develop with Ozzie in charge.

I lived in Dallas in 1996 and 1997. I can say from personal experience that half the town is snobby rich assholes and the other half s***s on their front porch.

I think you're going overboard with the generalization. Ozzie didn't do this with Beckham, Alexei or TCQ when they struggled as young players. The coaches must see something that they prefer to ease Morel into the full time role with giving him good chances to succeed.

 

Go head and fire away at me for looking for an answer.

I would never fire at you. I don't do that. But I don't like the way Morel is being handled.

Gotta agree with this. Morel has shown the ability to adjust and improve at each level, after a slow start. I'd like to see some patience exercised with the kid, and play him, nearly every day.

i don't either but making the generalization that no young player will develop is unfair. Although it does seem to be hitters and not pitchers doesn't it. Maybe Ozzie is the anti-Pinella, he has no idea how to handle hitters,

Well, if any young player develops after getting benched as punishment for starting to hit, he'll do so in spite of how he's used, not because of it.

 

Brent is not learning how to hit ML pitching with 4 at bats a week. And Dallas McPherson has not earned this playing time.

Do any of us understand the Dallas McP love?!? I sure don't.

 

Are we that desperate to make the lineup more left-handed? This is ridiculous. More BrentS please, ASAP.

LOL.

Danks pitching like he wants out of town.

Even Hawk and Stoney wondering what happened to Morel.

Single to rf for Beckham.

As fast as JP is he hits into alot of DP's.

Seems now Ozzie has a new man love in Dallas McPherson

That's cause he's not fast anymore. We should be doing a hit and run whenever Juan is up with someone on first.

maybe he just hates Morel.

Kind of sa that he singled in the first and was stranded at first. The pitcher never had to worry.

I am not ripping on Dunn, but the time to start to really wonder about him is very near. :gosoxretro:

Konerko slowed up rounding first.

Well that was horse s***. He looked safe to me.

Come on PK.

time to move Adam Dunn out of the three hole.

 

or outta town.

 

either way.

Yet another basepaths out is the result.

Dunn has got to start contributing against these tough righties
