The world's worst manager would be a blend between Tito's pinch-hitting picks and Torre's bullpen management.

[Beckett95]

and Willy Mo with a great AB to start things here

 

soon to be 2 down with crisp up

[TedWilliams101]

Great. Our offense this inning is

9- pitcher

1- pitcher

2-pitcher

*if anyone reaches base 3- Ortiz

[CrespoBlows]

CrespBlows' date=' It's called the freedom of speech. People should be criticized. Do you honestly believe George Bush, for instance, shouldn't be criticized by anyone because he's higher than us all... Thats a bad message to send CrespBlows. America is dumb enough as it is and bends over without question while the gov't rapes them up the ass.[/quote']

 

 

This is exactly what I'm talking about.

 

How the f*** do you go off in a spiel about freedom of speech?

[TedWilliams101]

guess we can't really argue.

[Beckett95]

hold it here for the good part of the order next inning

[riverside sluggers]

again f*** coco crisp, seriously he has a starting job?

[schillingouttheks]

Thanks Tito.

 

Where's Manny?

[TedWilliams101]

OK. I have seen enough of Lugo and Crisp. WMP should be our starting CF and drop Lugo to the 9 spot. I am sick of having sub .230BA and sub .300 OBP guys in the top of our lineup. Or in our lineup period.

If there is a next inning. I personally think there will be, but Jesus, Mary, and Joseph...

[schillingouttheks]

Please, this is starting to get more annoying than Lugo and Crisp sucking. We're all aware. You've said this a million times. To read people bitching about it is even worse. A short little "bahhhhhh Lugo you suck" is cool but when you go off on these types of rants it's just annoying.

[TedWilliams101]

Tito is "patient" What Tito doesn't realize is you can let a player find their groove WHILE they're in the bottom of the lineup. If they suck, drop 'em. You have to earn your spot in the lineup. Lugo and Coco haven't.

[riverside sluggers]

Now Pineiro is the first choice to start warming up in front of Papelbon, Timlin, and even Snyder?

[TedWilliams101]

Oh god. Pineiro is warming up in the pen. I'd much rather see 2 innings from Paps in a tie game than seeing Pineiro throw a single pitch.

[Beckett95]

Francona would be one of the worst managers in baseball, if he managed a NL team

[CrespoBlows]

$50, he repeats himself at least 50 times by the end of the week.

 

I'll start with one.

[TedWilliams101]

Tito WAS one of the worst NL managers when he was with the Philies.

[Beckett95]

good inning for Okajiima

 

alright lets scratch out a run or two this inning

[CrespoBlows]

Tito WAS one of the worst NL managers when he was with the Philies.

 

No fault to him.

 

Those were some pretty bad Phillies teams.

[TedWilliams101]

Crespblows, the reason I mentioned that is because I don't understand Tito logic behind keeping a struggling player in the spot they were intended to hit. If anything, dropping someone to the 8/9 spot will take away some pressure or light a fire under their ass.

[TedWilliams101]

Lets get some offense, please.

[schillingouttheks]

good inning for Okajiima

 

alright lets scratch out a run or two this inning

 

Big guns coming up. We need a run so Paps can come in and shut the door.

 

Pineiro at $4M was probably a worse signing than Drew at $70M. I know the market was bloated for Drew and they did end up paying a lot more than they should have (despite my being one of his advocates), but Pineiro just hasn't done anything to help this team win games.

Two.

[Beckett95]

lets go YOOOOUUUUKKKKK

[schillingouttheks]

Yeah Youk!!!!

 

Alright Drew. Keep it going. RBI(s) please

[Beckett95]

Drew would be smart to drop down a bunt here

[See Red]

YOOOOOOOOUK!

 

Two on, no outs!

[CrespoBlows]

Drew would be smart to drop down a bunt here

 

The way he rakes in this stadium?

[Beckett95]

The way he rakes in this stadium?

 

its a national league game, they should play it that way

 

get 2nd and 3rd 1 out and let varitek drive in a run

 

its a safe call, but lets see maybe Drew can get another hit

[Rdsxmbnt]

Drew 3-5 tonight
