1. The bold sentence is the exact opposite of what UN has been saying. We are criticizing the strategy, not the results (i.e. why start Young against RHP if Holt is available).

3. When we give Chili Davis credit for preparing Vazquez, Farrell gets all the indirect credit he can have. The leaders of well run organizations/departments typically will take the blame for corrective matters but will applaud their staff for any successes.
