Ozzie apologizes. Said he initially meant he respected the guy because people have been trying to kill him for 60 years but havent been able to.

Now Ozzie has denounced him as a dictator.

Ozzie is an idiot and nothing he says is of any value other than entertainment.

Remember, Ozzie is from Venezuela. Dictators, Socialists and Communists do have their supporters in places like Venezuela and Cuba. He's being called back to Miami and with a Cuban-American group boycotting Marlins games until he's fired, I can see things ending for him shortly.

    • Agreed.  But that X post was by a CHW fan, so I'll allow it.
    • No one thought Burnes was an option.  I think pretty much everyone would have taken the Burns deal over the proposed Cease deals.
    • You'd have Mateo. I'd prefer to save him for pinch-running though.  Of course, I'd have just let O'Hearn hit. My suggestion was just for those who think the world would end if O'Hearn batted against a LHP.   
    • Honestly, I could see the decision either way.  O’Hearn is a hot hitter historically vulnerable to lefties.   Hays historically hits lefties well but has been as cold as you can get.  He’s a significant defensive upgrade to O’Hearn for the rest of the game.  So what do you do? If my only concern was to maximize the chance to win today’s game, I’d probably stick with O’Hearn, for a reason not mentioned yet.  This was the leadoff batter in the 7th inning, and if anyone gets on base the next three innings, that means the batter will get one more AB after the one in the 7th inning, and decent chance that AB will be against a RHP.   So, that favors leaving O’Hearn in. At the same time, I don’t believe that maximizing the chance to win this game was the only consideration.  Simply put, Hyde wants to keep Hays involved in things, and wants to give him opportunities to break out of his slump.  And that’s important for the long term benefit of the team.   So, as I see it, it’s a close call, and I wouldn’t criticize Hyde either way.  We won the game so I’m certainly not going to obsess about it.    
    • Remember when we used to be on the other side of this ledger? How easy some forget. We don’t have to put others down to prop ourselves up. I hope we don’t become that annoying/arrogant fanbase who likes to run others’ noses in it.
    • Probably as tough a night as Bradish's yesterday was encouraging.   I think it'll be found some persistent aspect of the injury he's now rehabbing is somehow at the root of this ineffectiveness....otherwise I'm not sure what happens when the rehab assignment clock runs out.
    • Enos and Brit were talking about Lindor's slow start recently.  As part of the discussion Enos said that players tend to swing less in the first month and pitchers can rake advantage of that.  I wonder if the Sigbot is arbitraging that with more aggressive PAs?
