First of all, I never once compared Tito to other managers with regard to how often he left in pitchers for 7 runs. I don't care how often other managers do it. It is a stupid move. Next, I really don't think very highly of Maddon as a manager either, so what point are you trying to make that Tito wasn't much worse than Maddon. Maddon is a guy who submitted a lineup with 2 third baseman and lost his DH because of it. He has never been able to motivate BJ Upton's lazy ass. No, I don't think much of Maddon either.
