  1. We should be able to hit Gallardo even without Pedroia in the lineup.
  2. He can't be worse than Kendrick...can he? He has a win this season.
  3. We still have not named a pitcher for Saturday?
  4. He should be held accountable.
  5. It is impossible to prove and therefore impossible to quantify, because we can never know the the outcome of alternative moves or non-moves.
  6. Doesn't the proper utilization of players include in game decisions? Doesn't it also involve decisions regarding who plays on a given day and the construction of the lineup?
  7. They still list it as TBA.
  8. So Kimbrel did not get 4 k's?
  9. That was a checked swing ... I guess. LOL!!!
  10. You could hear it hit him on the onfield mic. The 4 blind mice are deaf too.
  11. At the point that NY starts talking to the Umps in that situation, they need to get the play right. What a BS excuse. NY should have said, "listen dumb f***, you completely botched the call. The ball hit him in the foot nd he swung and missed. He is out."
  12. The excuse on the bad call was that there was a miscommunication? Can anyone do their jobs right today? They are talking to each other on headsets. How can their be a miscommunication? What dopes!
  13. 4 k's by Kimbrel in the 9th inning to end the game.
  14. They have 4 umps and replay and the play was clear to the naked eye and they still get it wrong. These umps and the replay ump sucks.
  15. Good for Marrero!! He could be back in Pawtucket soon. He has done a great job at 3B and he has contributed a few key hits.
  16. That is what is was.
  17. Who does a field manager have to coordinate with and what obstacles can he remove for a player that are not in the purview of someone else in the organization with well defined responsibilities. It is not like the players are being assigned projects where they need to interface with people in a massive organization or need to deal with budgetary requests. I don't see the parallels to a boss. I think it is a poor analogy.
  18. Kimmi might disagree about those 5 games.
  19. XB with his first HR. Yes!!
  20. A ridiculously long promo.
  21. I am not saying that you advocate for big bucks for managers, but if what you say is true there is a strong case to make that they are not needed at all. I'd hire a visiting motivational speaker to come to the clubhouse once or twice a week. The GM could make the lineup and let the players play.
  22. And that is worth what a good Babysitter would get. The players largely make their own clubhouse atmosphere. If the players know how to play when they get to the majors and lineups don't matter and in game management has meant a hoot in 33 years, the clubhouse is a weakassed excuse to pay millions for a manager.
  23. His last outing was brutal and he is sporting a very high ERA.
