I REALLY fail to see the point in Thornton there, he is either going to throw an 0-2 fastball....or a fastball...not hard to time that.

Well....this blows

I pray that we can trade Thornton.

stop it here before the wheels fall off the bus.

Wilson Betemit was truly one of the worst players in baseball when he was here. Terrible fielder. And, oh yeah, couldn't hit either.

Ozzie.

Nice piece of hitting

Yep, you have to get him to chase a pitch there with a base open. Thornton is just immune to getting the clutch out at home this season.

Its just bad pitching.

 

Hes ahead in the count with a base open. Betimet is not exactly the most patient hitter and is basically swinging at everything. No reason to throw him anything thats good.

More crappy managing by Ozzie. Had to go by the book, even though Crain was doing fine. Just brilliant.

I hope Thornton leaves

I wonder what excuses Rongey will make for him tonight.

I hope Ozzie leaves.

I hope they dont just IBB betemit just to get to Avila.

Oops

Farkin Wilson Betimit. That guy hurts the Sox again.

 

They must have fans doing the pitching for the Twins. 30 runs in 2 days.

why do I have the feeling if he had left Crain in and Betemit singled, you would have been complaining that he didn't bring in Thornton?

That was matt's issue the entire time he attempted to close for us. Yuck.

Hopefully we can push two across with our last 5 outs.

 

Mercy.

Edit: does alexi even remember how to walk? Please please please

I don't know why you make that assumption. Do I know you?

Ripping on bringing in Thornton is irrational Ozzie hate IMO. Although, I should point out that the top of the 6th was the worst half inning Ozzie has ever managed. Betemit has an OPS almost 300 points worse against lefties, it was the move that had to be made. However, Matt Thornton lacks balls, so it didn't work out. Too bad the whole Rasmus deal wasn't true.
