poptart Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 Amezaga was good in CF last time he played there, but Reggie's been pretty hot lately. on ESPN bottom line, i believe, the said he has 5 hits in his last 14 ABs. thats like a .350 BA. not sure why they took him out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sirspud Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 That's kind a dissapointing, I haven't been able to watch Koolaid have any of his good games and was hoping to see him hit tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marlins2003 Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 Amezaga was good in CF last time he played there, but Reggie's been pretty hot lately. on ESPN bottom line, i believe, the said he has 5 hits in his last 14 ABs. thats like a .350 BA. not sure why they took him out I would guess three things- 1. Amezega's triple last night and speed at the bottom of the lineup with Ramirez and Uggla following Willis. 2. It was the centerfielder's job to make sure collisions like last night don't happen and he didn't do his job. 3. Girardi may have felt Abercrombie would be over-matched against Hudson and/or he wanted to AA some playing time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonDigital Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 Looks good to me. I love Amezaga's game. Kool Aid is such a silly nickname :lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramp Posted May 11, 2006 Author Share Posted May 11, 2006 2. It was the centerfielder's job to make sure collisions like last night don't happen and he didn't do his job. that was clearly Hammer's fault last night.... Reggie was yelling that being said, hopefully it's just because Joe wanted to get AA some pt I guess the writing may be on the wall for Eric Reed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prinmemito Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 2. It was the centerfielder's job to make sure collisions like last night don't happen and he didn't do his job. i agree, but you could literally hear reggie calling him off (and you could certainly see him calling him off). hammer just kept going.

DelGOT2Rings Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 I guess the writing may be on the wall for Eric Reed I wish that were the case. But, you'd think he'd be sent down to the minors if that was true. I see no reason to keep a "pinch runner" on the roster, when we could certainly use another utility player/extra bat. I do not think Eric Reed should be on a MLB roster. That being said, Girardi's use of him while he is on the squad is a joke, and is probably the biggest waste of a roster spot in Marlins' history. If you have him up here, use him...and prove me wrong. We could get better use of a roster spot from a FOURTH catcher (counting Willy as the 3rd).

CYmarlins Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 Reggie not playing today is weird, but Almazega playing is always good news to me, great player imo. I hope it all pans out though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beinfest4Prez Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 I think its just to give Abercrombie a day off and reward him for his good work as of late. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the centerfielder's job to make sure collisions like last night don't happen and he didn't do his job. Those who have posted on this before me are correct. There is no way that Reggie is at fault there. It's the centerfielder's job to get to anything he can get to. It's the other outfielders' jobs to get out of the way when the centerfielder calls for it. Once Reggie calls for it, Hammer should be out of the picture.

Marlins2003 Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 I'm not suggesting Reggie was wrong to try and call off Hammer, but it's like not stopping when someone runs a red light and an accident that could have been avoided happens. Sometimes getting out of the way when you realize the other guy doesn't hear you or doesn't know where you are is the right thing to do. That said, since most of you see it a different way I'll go with the majority. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flamarlins3 Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 He has the day off against a damn good pitcher. The lineup is fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes getting out of the way when you realize the other guy doesn't hear you or doesn't know where you are is the right thing to do. That said, since most of you see it a different way I'll go with the majority. Having played outfield for quite some time, I'll let you know that when you call for a ball that is yours you go hard for it. When going full speed after a ball, you don't see the other player running in your direction. So, to better your analogy, I propose this: It's like going at a green when you see no one coming, then all of the sudden someone flies up over a hill from the right and clobbers you without your seeing them. Unfortunately, you can't use insurance to get outs back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamrock Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 Reg has played 16 games in a row the announcers said and it doesn't hurt to give him a rest against a pitcher that kills righties. Definitely means Reed is a goner cause management doesn't seem to want to give him starts...meaning he'll be the one to go in a week. Amezega shows us that he's still green at taking proper routes. Willis looks SICK so far. He's throwing with 3-4 more mph than I'm used to seeing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
