JoeC Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 No, it wasn’t a tough call. Unfortunately with the bar set so low, you turned it into a game of limbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balta1701 Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 "Does anyone in this room really think that with the count they should have hit to Turner. I mean there's no chance." - Close to that when someone asked about it a second time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know how you draw any real conclusions about that from a sample size of 7 ABs. In his career, he's a .229 hitter against lefties in a 1-2 count. Muncy, while bad this year, is historically a stronger hitter vs. lefties .251/.365/.492. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's crazy that his move completely backfired and he's still sticking to his guns thinking it was some sort of no brainer move. He insists it was an easy call, brings up unnamed statistics (that we've verified he's wrong about), and is legitimately angrily dumbfounded that he is getting questioned on this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heads22 Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 But yet, since tomorrow's starter is a righty and because Burger left with cramps, you'll see a lineup that looks like SS Garcia CF Robert 3B Moncada 1B Abreu DH Grandal LF Vaughn RF Sheets 2B Harrison C McGuire 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soxfan49 Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 If this moron is so convinced that walking Turner to pitch to Muncy was so smart, why did he wait for Sousa to throw 3 pitches? Hey Rick. Hey Jerry. Hey Kenny. Hey Tony. If any of you 4 nitwits are reading this: f*** you. You all suck ass at your jobs 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
