his issue all year has been trying to nibble on the corners, make the perfect pitch. Lately he has lost command of the fastball, pitching behind in the count. For him, that’s a hole you can’t dig out of very easily. [Reply]
WTF is Garcia starting over Munoz if it’s not for defense? He’s looked below average out there. Garcia is on the bag to take the throw as any little leaguer knows, the guys out by a mile. Ruined Baders fantastic play. [Reply]
Just a clusterfuck of a managerial job by Schildt that inning. He's damned lucky it didn't bite them in the ass. Not only did they not challenge the play at second, but then he leaves Weaver in so he can keep digging towards China, only getting up Webb again after he loads the damned bases. It's a minor miracle it's not 7-0 right now. [Reply]

its my understanding that all managers in baseball challenge or not challenge based on the recommendation of their staff watching the replays. Whatever decision yes or no they go with. The only managerial decision is when it’s 50/50. [Reply]
