This is unsettling how pathetic the offense has been on this road trip. We need a manager who knows how to form a lineup. Youk in the 3 spot, the 2 weakest hitters leading off, etc etc. How does he get away with this s***?
-
and smack some sense into Francona.
-
We definately need to improve our offense and defense.
-
NO, Papi or Drew should have PH for the pitcher in the 7th with no outs and the lead runner on. Sacrificing Cora for 2 .200 hitters is HORRIBLE managing. Now another automatic out at the plate.
-
Tito gave up on this game in the 6th. Anyone else starting to get a bit concerned about our lineup? There are automatic outs developing everywhere.
-
And Tito uses Drew in the wrong spot.
-
And Timlin continues to do horribly with inherited runners.
-
Welcome back Timlin...
-
Is anyone else getting sick and tired of seeing so many Red Soxs trying to laydown bunt singles.
-
More importantly, Lugo and Crisp have a combined .278OBP and are HORRIBLE with the bases empty; Lugo is hitting under .200 with the bases empty. I want a logical explanation from Tito as to why he keeps putting Lugo and Crisp at the top of the lineup. That is, if there even is a logical explanation.
-
So Tito sacrifices Cora for Lugo and Crisp to get a chance... Um, isn't cora swinging better than either of them?
-
JD isn't facing Randy Johnson today.
-
The lineup on Nesn has Lugo and Crisp 1,2. When will Tito learn. Crespoblows:3
-
He couldn't have done anything with that.
-
ok.
-
I'm assuming that you made the incorrect call... If you call with pot odds and lose, it's still the right call and a winning decision. I'm talking about throwing away a hand that you would be making a losing call.
-
Anywho, I wouldn't use the straight vs flush example. Straights are fairly easy to get away from if you experienced enough.
-
Actually, I play poker, I am generally the one quietly taking money from everyone else. And I never give advice at the poker table. Thats just bad poker etiquette.
-
Thats why you don't bunt there. TEK time. Make it happen Captian. Give us a lead.
-
Lets get some offense, please.
-
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.
-
Tito WAS one of the worst NL managers when he was with the Philies.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
