Dear Ricky

The bullpen did a very nice job tonight.  Three one run innings with nothing disgusting happening.  With Houston's club no one can expect to hold them to under 3 runs.  Needed to find a way to score 4 runs.  Maybe juggling the lineup would pump some life into things.  Leo Durocher pulled the lineup out of a hat to wake up a sleeping offense.  Durocher  was the manager who said " nice guys finish last."  Maybe we suffer from a little of that.

I think its a simple as Ricky is unable to fill out a lineups card that doesn't go righty/lefty/right/lefty.

He is truly a pitiful manager.  

It's absolutely this.

Well, Alonso not batting 4th tonight but still a dumb lineup. Literally the next worst hitter batting clean-up: Beef. Not even facing a lefty tonight (Verlander). Yonder hitting 6th in front of our 2 hottest hitters, Timmy and Tilson. Not sure why they are batting lower in the order. Timmy can drive in runs and Tilson can get on base.

Ozzie and Robin both used to do this.

 

Remember shoehorning Keppinger, Wise, and Graffanino into lineup cards because they batted lefty or righty?

He's doing it until the people hear learn how to spell Alonso

Yeah  difficult for me to pay attention enough to spell the names of people like Alonso... one of the thousands of insignificant players in pro sports history.

It's more than just righty lefty its also clean up hitters that have no business batting clean up.
