Torre's not sure that Proctor has been completely burned out yet, and he won't stop going to him every day until his arm falls off. I'm sure he'll justify it by saying that Proctor wants the ball every day. Remember that he used that excuse while he wrecked Quantrill.
I know. There are so many other things on his mind during the game. As he says when he plays the NL, "sometimes the game gets a little fast.":rolleyes:
They bring in the lefty to face Cora and Ellsbury and still no pinch hitter. Does Tito know that he has two RH hitters on the bench that are better than these guys?
He's a big time dick that would bring a ton of baggage. Boston wouldn't affect his performance negatively. I wonder how the circus he would bring would affect the rest of the team. Taking the spotlight away from the others might be a help. Who know?
Considering the problem we are having scoring runs, why would Tito shorten his lineup by playing Ellsbury instead of WMP, especially with Lowell getting the day off? A WMP bomb could wake things up.
Tavarez has done great up until this point, but this is about where he usually starts to fall apart. He'll be very valuable in the middle relief role if we land a starter.
