Good work Ohman. Just keep letting people get aboard.

Memo to Mr. Ventura:

 

Ohman is a LOOGY. Thank you.

 

Sincerely,

Concerned White Sox Fan

 

Two biggest areas of criticism so far of Ventura are his handling of Ohman and Morel in the 2nd spot. Besides that, he's done a fantastic job.

Reed on pace for a helluva work load this year.

I feel like Ozzie would have kept him in there.....Nice to see Robin pull him & give us a chance at getting out of the inning

I think this is the last time youll see Morel in the 2 spot.

Yeah, he'll swap with AJ and Morel will be protecting Konerko.

I agree that he is doing a great job. But a few of his moves are headscratchers. Cannot see why he took out Stewart for a LOOGY in a two run game.

Yeah, no more Morel is the two hole please.

Bat Lillibridge in #2 rotate him between 3rd and 2nd.

 

Beckham/Morel can bat 9th.

Lilli has honestly looked just as horrible in his 5 at-bats this year.

 

We have a good third baseman on our bench....his initials are RV

I agree, Stewart should have pitched the 9th too.

Or... RV.

I think we might see Rios bat 2nd

Now we have to use Reed. I don't think Thornton is available today. We are in trouble if this game goes to extra innings. GOing to have to put up a lot of runs in the bottom of 9.

No matter who the manager is he will make some moves the general fanbase wont agree with and call headscratchers.....I don't even think Ohman belongs on the major league roster.

So I thought Reed threw harder than he's shown this year. Anyone know his average fastball velocity?

9 good players would usually make the manager look good. Harder to do when you have a few coin flip guys in the lineup

Well, that's what happens when you get behind in the count 0-2.

 

Credit to Ventura for not giving up this game and trying to use Ohman and Reed instead of leaving Stewart in there.

93.8 so far this year.

92-93-94

 

His bread and butter pitch has always been the slider.

Leaving in Ohman assures that he gave up on the game

Well, that's an 0/12 series for Miguel Cabrera against Sox pitching.

Reached back for a little something extra there, 95 and on the black. Impossible pitch to hit, we've really controlled Cabrera this series.

Well, clearly Ventura trusts the veteran Ohman over what he saw out of Stewart this spring.

 

 

It will take some time for Zach to re-earn Robin's confidence. It's one thing to face the bottom of the order, it's quite another to go through the heart of the line-up unscathed.

 

 

Balta, who do you think should be batting 2nd?

If Will Ohman against RH is > Zach Stewart against RH in Ventura's mind, then Stewart shouldn't be on the roster.
