Im just curious on how people feel about cora in chicago. if ozzie were to leave, would fans want him as the head coach?

 

[Lefty]

I don't know, he seems like Ozzie Lite in that he will be wanting his teams to bunt and steal a ton, which is a horrible idea when your best base-stealer is Juan fucking Pierre and your predecessor has not demonstrated the intelligence necessary to properly determine when to bunt.

If Hahn were sticking around, I would say get anybody that would listen to him, but it sadly appears that he is not, so I really don't know. We could be seeing just more of the same bad managerial tactics but from someone else. Ugh.

I am not so optimistic about next season, ozzie will probably be back and it will be the same old shit again. as much as i like ozzie, he demonstrated bad bad managerial choices. From Mark Kotsay in the lineup all the time to having everyone on the team running like they are escaping prison to the horrible bunting choices.

Now we have that.

Plus all the question marks. will konerko be back? who is our catcher? is peavy going to be ready? to closer issues.....argh its going to be a long offseason.

wait what is wrong with Pierre stealing? I know he led the majors in steals, but was his percentage that much lower than the other top stealers?

stealing is fine, and it really isnt about pierre it is about the entire roster. the cs percentage was horrible, and to top it off the timing of steals in the in game situations by ozzie were bad, and also the guys he had trying to steal. it was a mess this year with that.

We need to add to bullpen and revamp this lineup. Im sick of mediocrity since the World Series title
