Ozzie, Shut Up And pay Attention
Unbelievable. I'm still stunned after the White Sox blew a 6-3 game against the Chicago minor league team. And
boy, am I ticked off.
I don't know what Ozzie Guillen was doing in the Sox dugout for nine innings today. Maybe he was sharing phone calls with Mike North. Maybe he was thinking about how he was going to maneuver around the traffic in Wrigleyville after the game. Maybe he was pondering why Joe Crede used his face instead of his glove in pre-game warm-ups. Maybe he was tired after four games in three days. But I can damn sure tell you one thing: He was not paying attention this afternoon.
Anytime the Sox are ready, I volunteer my time and my vehicle to drive Mike MacDougal and Andrew Sisco to the bus station for their trip to Charlotte. Actually, I would trade MacDougal to the Cubs because he looks like he'd fit right in their bullpen.
Why in the name of Bill Veeck do you bring MacDougal into the game in the seventh inning? Isn't that David Ardsma's job? And why in the name of Nellie Fox do you leave that sorry sack of cow dung out on the mound in the eighth inning? When MacDougal came into the came, I thought I saw him with a can of gasoline. He sure poured it all over that fire you wanted him to get out. On the first pitch. To Angel Pagan. Angel Pagan, Ozzie. If he can't get him out, what do you think the odds are with Soriano or Ramerez or Grady Sizemore or Gary Sheffied.
Why did Toby Hall get left in the game in the seventh with runners on? My grandma Toby throws better than him and she's been dead for almost three years. Toby Hall looked more like Dominik Hassek than a catcher. You said you wanted to see what he could do. We now know what he can't do: Block pitches or throw. At least Gustavo Molina can play defense. Do you think maybe you could have pulled a double switch in the bottom of the seventh and put Pierzynski in? If you are mad at A.J. for this morning, tough crap.
Ozzie, were you paying attention?
I don't give a damn about your fight with Mike North. This loss was disgraceful. And it would have been disgraceful against the Devil Rays or the Twins or anybody. This, like the loss you had in Oakland earlier this year DIDN'T HAVE TO HAPPEN provided that you can extract your head from anal orifice long enough to see what's going on.
Your team made Bobby Howry look like Lee Smith and Ryan Dumpster like Mariano Rivera.
Your team made more errors than a Bush Administration CIA operative.
Your team made more mental mistakes than a dieter at Cold Stone Creamery.
Your team played with as much emotion as a bunch of Vulcans on anti-depressants.
Fly Thome in and let Toby have his surgery.
Send MacDougal away or maybe pre-critical situations for awhile.
Send Sisco to Siberia.
The clock is ticking Ozzie. Cleveland plays the Reds this weekend and the Tigers get the Cardinals. You could be 6½ out of first by Sunday night if you aren't careful.
Ozzie, you need to pay attention. Please.
