Ozzie sure is quick to put in the ass of the pen with any sign of an indians lead.
other than the 5 hits in 1.2 on monday.
but hey, putting russell in last night got the win, so I’ll retract my complaint.
I guess in an alternate reality
the Sox are tied 4-4
-Jeeves Life in the Cell
It was a good series....
2 of 3 is solid. Just a bit woried about the series in front of us and the fact that these bums are headed to the Twin Cities.

In order to avoid CC going the route....
Sox will need to make him work here in the 7th and 8th….a 15 pitch average over the next two innings will get us an Indians’ reliever in the 9th.
Speaking of working pitchers
Pablo up to bat.
He sure likes to make our pitchers work, what with his errors and all.

really swish? why not just bat? you're on fire.

depends, perhaps, upon how you feel about your bullpen going forward.
i can’t say i have a real problem with using linebrink there considering he’s roughly as good as logan against lefties. it’s not like we’re talking about a large difference in effectiveness.
Given Sizemore's past history against Logan
and the fact that he’d scored three runs already, I think it requires being as careful as possible.

If you don't have your closer available...
how do you NOT play the matchups against Sizemore and throw a lefty at him for just him?
Look at Sizemore's splits against lefties for this season and his career...
awful managing by Ozzie.
Every manager in baseball throws a lefty at Sizemore in that situation...
if their closer is unavailable and they have a left-hander available.
well, i think we know that statement to be false.

beef stew
ngredients:
1 lb. stew beef, cubed
1/3 stick butter
1 cup flour
1 tbsp. salt
1 tsp. pepper
3 cans beef broth
4 Idaho potatoes, peeled and diced in 1-1/2 inch cubes
1 pkg. baby carrots
1 sm. onion, finely diced
Water
Directions:
Fill a large kettle with your three cans of beef broth and three cans of water. Bring to a boil. (You may use more beef broth for more flavor.)
Cut your beef into 1-inch cubes. Prepare a small bowl of flour, salt and pepper. Mix these ingredients with a fork. Toss your beef cubes in the flour until fully coated.
Melt butter in a frying pan on low heat. Place beef cubes in the pan and simmer until browned. Make sure you turn them on all sides. Meanwhile, add carrots, onion and potatoes to the boiling broth. Once your meat is browned and juicy, add the pieces into the pot.
Simmer stew for about 2 hours. If you like your veggies crunchier, only cook for 1-1/2 hours. Stir occasionally, and add a pinch of salt if your first taste test is a little bland. Serve in stew bowls with warmed bread for dipping. Enjoy!!!

for future reference, what was the tipoff that it was speculation?
the “sometimes”? the something? or the ”...”?
Well, that makes it sound like you are making excuses for Ozzie's decision...
to not use a lefty against Sizemore.
well, it does add a point to the case that they weren't available
Either that or Ozzie realized that he shoulda used a lefty in the 9th, and covered it up by not using one in the 10th.
Another clue that he didn’t wanna use the lefties: Using Nick magic down 1 in the 7th with 2 lefties up.
why does something have to be an excuse?
why can’t it just be a possible explanation? ozzie thinks slightly more ahead than you, mr. i live and die with every pitch and can’t see the big picture. next four games are with oakland. there might be something you’ll notice about their lineup. ozzie tried to get away with keeping his lefty powder dry and he had a pretty good option in linebrink and was at home and all he had to do was get by sizemore. didn’t work out. c’est la vie.
