    I don't want to give up on him, I just think he needs some low leverage situations to get his [expletive] back together and he needs to be not giving away games while he figures it out.
  2. mul21
    He did. Basically said Rosenthal had thrown 6 pitches and he wanted him out there again. Apparently there's some trust issues with the guys he had left in the pen based on what the Cards announcers were saying.

    If they make a change, probably Strop Agreed. You've got 3 pretty good late inning options in him, Grimm and Rondon until Veras figures out how to throw a strike again.
  4. mul21
    Yeah, to a point, but when the decisions are as bad as they've been tonight it's a problem. Now, if he fixes Castro, that gives him a pretty long rope.
  5. mul21
    I would have been happier if he didn't do dumb [expletive] to make the game 2 innings longer than it needed to be. Then I also wouldn't completely hate him right now.
  6. mul21
    This is righter.

    Holy [expletive] Castillo. BOMB!
  8. mul21
    Quit dicking around with the offspeed stuff and just throw it by him.

    Interesting choice by Matheny here. I'd be pissed as a fan at this decision.

    That's simply not true. Most of them it's because they don't have a quality 3rd pitch to be a starter. Really, you're going to sit there and say it's not true that relievers are the most volatile and unpredictable position in baseball? I didn't say that at all. I said that most of them are relievers because they don't have a quality 3rd pitch. It's absolutely the most unpredictable position in the game.

    That's simply not true. Most of them it's because they don't have a quality 3rd pitch to be a starter. He's being a smart-ass. If finding relievers is so damn hard then why do the same few organizations always seem to have good ones? And if our guys are so smart, how come our bullpen's been a crater of awful for 3 years? Because most teams don't have utter garbage in their upper minor leagues for 3 straight years.

    Should be a walk off on about the 3rd pitch here.
  14. mul21
    Apparently Carpenter is getting the veteran treatment in his 2nd [expletive] year because he's gotten that twice now in this game where there was an inside corner pitch that was a strike and not called.
  15. mul21
    After Veras' display the other day there should have been somebody throwing as soon as Yadi got on base. Renteria is [expletive] baaaaaad.
  16. mul21
    Pour rum in your butt.
  17. mul21
    He's gonna walk in the [expletive] tying run with nobody warming up. [expletive] me.
  18. mul21
    Renteria's unwillingness to have somebody warming up right now is maddening too.
  19. mul21
    Considering he can't hit the broad side of a barn right now, I'm not willing to chalk it up to bad luck.
  20. mul21
    This team would have been better off without any FA other than Bonifacio. Rosscup instead of Wright and Parker instead of Veras. This just sucks.
  21. mul21
    Yeah, I'm already done with Renteria. All the bunting, the steal last inning, 4 lefties in a row in the lineup, just a whole lot of basic stuff he's doing wrong.
  22. mul21
    Well, yeah, but you're also putting the hitter in a tough position of often having to swing at a pitch he's not comfortable swinging at, which is why I'm particularly against doing it with Castro right now who is re-figuring out his happy zones.
  23. mul21
    After it was already 3-0 they just put him on.
  24. mul21
    As well as he's swinging the bat right now, you just let him do his thing and don't screw up his timing with a hit and run.
  25. mul21
    Nothing like running into outs with one of your best hitters at the plate. So stupid.
