Ozzie Guillen Is An Idiot!!!

[Slammed 5,000+ posts]

You all probably heard about his stupid behavior on the news.....

http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=2486362

"The Rangers hit AJ Pierzynski of the White Sox twice during the course of the game. So Ozzie Guillen, the coach of the White Sox, sent a rookie reliever into the game and told him to do one thing and one thing only: hit the next batter.

Well the guy throws two pitches inside, obviously trying to hit the guy but missing. Eventually he throws another inside, and the batter grounds out to the second baseman.

Ozzie explodes, and takes the reliever (Tracey) out of the game. He then proceeds to storm around in the dugout screaming at the poor guy. Tracey is visibly upset, and appears to be crying.

After the game Tracey got sent down to the minors."

This is total BS!!!

Guillen should be suspended or worse!

I lost all respect for him.

If anything like that happens, theres going to be a shitstorm.........and Ill bet you his race is brought up. 10-1 odds.

But I completely agree, ban the douchebag.

I disagree. Ozzie asked the man to do a job, he didn't get it done. Would you trust him out there again?

It IS pretty bad if youre trying to hit somebody and fail-twice. Doesnt justify his manager asking him to do it, though.

So was the guy really crying?

That's your job. When another team hits your player (twice) you need to stick up for him. Man up. Randy Johnson did last night for Posada, Tracey didn't for Posednik. Some pitchers don't believe in retaliating, but if you're asked to do it, you better do it.

We don't know if the pitcher was actually trying to do it, or just trying to look like he was.

Maybe the guy didn't want to hit him, and just made it look like he tried.

If you are professional, then you wouldn't have hit the batter. Theres a bit of responsibility and respect that comes with being a pro, and maybe this pitcher was exerting that secretly, much to his coaches dismay.

So just because you are asked to do something by a superior, you must do it, regardless of moral obligations?

Hitting another player....whats that going to do?

Clear the benches perhaps...make matters worse.

Blalock had nothing to do with the incident, and he was targeted.

I do not agree with this at all. Its not baseball.

AJ (most likely) was hit unintentionally. Dude is not even hitting well lately....

"Padilla hit the man because he wanted to hit the man," Guillen said. "Baseball people know. ... Maybe Padilla doesn't like him. .."

How does Guillen know that?

".. If you play against A.J., you hate him; if you play with him, you hate him less."

You must have never played baseball. It's about sticking up for your teammate. Another pitcher hits your player twice, you send them a message and hit one of there players. That doesn't mean you throw at there head, you just hit them in the leg, or back. It's part of the game. As a pitcher if you are told to go out there and hit a batter, you better do it.
