Ozzie's line-up decisions thus far this year are really, really, turning me against him. Use common sense, man. ****.

Still venting....sorry


THE BEST FIELDER ON THE ****ING TEAM IS PLAYING DH...WHYYYYYYYY?

****. Ozuna costs us a run on an easily catchable ball because Ozzie is an idiot. Anderson is ****ing DHing, even though he can play CF twice as good as Erstad, and LF five times as good as Ozuna. GOD DAMNIT


Oh good, Mackowiak looks like he hurt his leg running to second

How can you say that? The offense completely went to sleep after the second inning. And ****ing Andruw couldn't hit the broad side of a barn.
Because it's not reasonable to project the performance of a seven inning sample size towards the rest of a season. Do you seriously think the Braves have a bad offense? Do you expect production to have a completely linear distribution or something?

This is why you get put on ignore lists. (and why I immediately regret using the "view post" feature).

As I stated in a previous post, the offense going to sleep is a trend. Its happened in just about every game where we scored a few runs early.

Do we have a bad offense? No.....but we've got glaring black holes at LF and 1B. And Andruw is trying to hit everything out of the park in his walk year. Andruw will probably come out of it, but a turn around at LF and 1B is a lot less likely.

And by the way, this "fabulous" team is 7-7 since the 6-1 start. But, you probably won't read any of this. Ignore lists are for pussies.
 
Now now, boys. Settle down.

SD, Andruw was hitting like .470 something over the last five games coming into this one. You really need to switch to decaf. Diaz also had 2 hits tonight, he's coming around. If only Bobby would play him more. Also, give some credit to Olsen- after his early gopher balls he really settled down and pitched a good game.

And Gruco, like I said earlier in the thread, Huddy's great... when he's keeping his shit down. Those hits he gave up, even though they weren't rips, were on balls that he was leaving up. Bobby should have recognized that a lot quicker. Then again, he should have probably either gone with Fatty to start the inning or brought in Soriano or Gonzo after two hits had been given up. Fatty doesn't have "can't hit it" stuff, which is what ya really need in that case.

Finally, this is the first series we've lost this year, and it took a bizarre meltdown for that to happen. This loss hurts so bad because it happened so fast after we'd been cruising. I mean, that game took 2 1/2 hours, even with that stupid drama in the 9th. We'll bounce back.
 
Tonight's White Sox line-up is one of the worst I've seen in a long ****ing time.

D. Erstad CF 1-3
T. Iguchi 2B 0-3
P. Konerko 1B 0-3
A.J. Pierzynski C 0-3
J. Crede 3B 0-3
A. Gonzalez RF 0-1
P. Ozuna LF 0-3
J. Uribe SS 1-1
B. Anderson DH 0-2
 
Ever since Ichiro came into the league in 2001, Oakland has had the most hostile and unfriendly fan response towards him. They've long since stopped with hurling batteries at him out in the field, but they boo him like crazy, more than any other ballpark in the bigs. What the hell do people in Oakland have against him?
 
Danks has been an above average 5th starter this year, and is going to be 0-3. That's too bad.


**** you Ozzie. So far this year, you've been a miserable manager.


e: Peavy, oh my christ
 
Game over, losing to Durbin hahahha.

**** you Ozzie, stop being a complete dickhead and play players like you should. Stop being an asshole. Our pitching has been pretty good after the first week. You're ****ing that all up with your shitty line-ups and the way you bring in our scrub pitchers in important situations.

people in oakland are ugly they are jealous of Ichiro's sexiness.
 
Ensberg sucks,0-7,10 men left on base.
 
Indians win their 4th in a row. Still remain in the AL Central lead.


Since the Yankees were rained out, what will Baseball Tonight talk about for 20 minutes?
 
Seattle and Oakland took less than 80 minutes to get through 7 innings.

Anyone know what's the record for shortest game ever?

edit: Home run for Kenji!!!
 
Asstros for sure *sigh*
 
Welp, Looks like Grady Little has considered this 1 run game a loss already. No other reason to bring in Rudy Seanez, right?


Come On Ruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuudy!
 
I thought this was a pretty cool fact:
This date in Mets history -- April 26: The inexplicable happened on this date during a period of years. Tom Seaver started for the Mets on April 26 in 1970, 1971, 1972 and 1974 -- four times in a span of five years. He won each time, pitched a complete game each time and never walked a batter. His composite pitching line for the four starts was 36 innings, 24 hits, four runs, all earned, no walks and 25 strikeouts. His ERA: 1.00.
 
Wow.. Someone else on the M's pitching staff NOT sucking it up?!! Oh.. I fear for the next game.. It'll balance itself out somehow..
 
So Dodgers sweep the Giants at home and now comes the payback. This offense sucks ass by the way, Dodgers desperately need a power hitter. This small ball shit ain't gonna work if Furcal/Pierre are only gonna be getting 1 hit each per game.

And why the hell did they pitch to Barroid with 2 on? Walk his roiding ass and make someone else beat you. #*!()&#*@&*)!^#)&!@^!&*@*(#&)!
 
Do you suppose that if the Twins sacrificed Sidney Ponson to the baseball gods that we could have Liriano back, like, now? :( Please pull that bum. Please call up Garza and Slowey.

However that doesn't solve the problem that we can't hit the ball for a shit. And one of the few people who is hitting, Hunter, is almost assuredly gone next year. Then what?

We've lost four consecutive to the Native Americans and Royals. We're probably going to get our asses kicked by the Detroit Bigots this weekend. Goddammit. Please stop breaking my heart, Gardy.
 
Good thing I picked up Wolf earlier this week... :lol

Contreras during the draft... Dumped after first game where he shit his pants

Jared Weaver during the draft... On DL for most of the season so far... Two horrible stars since returning

Anibal Sanches during the draft... Not repeating the success of last year.

Jesus...

Don't even get me started on these two turds: Dye and Ryan Howard
 
who's heading yankees scouting in japan? he/she should be fired. aggressive on igawa yet dormant on okajima...****ing typical
