Capn12 Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 I really struggle to remember any time when Ohman came into a game, and looked the part... and why the hell was he still in the game?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Put this one in the managerial notebook for referencing in the future. Not good decision-making that inning to put Reed in that situation when it was avoidable. Kotchmann was hitting .143. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buehrle>Wood Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 3, 2012 -> 03:18 AM) That's right. 3 words is all he knows, but he know them well and the Braves are an offensive juggernaut. It's too bad his awfulness wasn't working out here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 He definitely wanted to see everything Ohman had in the tank. We found out for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 2, 2012 -> 09:24 PM) I am glad to see your dropped the earlier charade of not comparing Cooper and Walker. You have to admit, 13 runs against a team starting Roy Halladay is pretty impressive. What a coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxbadger Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 You can dislike Walker, but at least dont just make s*** up. "Lift and Pull" was created on this website, it was never real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a LOOGY, plain and simple. If a manager doesn't know that, then he doesn't know his squad. Edited May 3, 2012 by fathom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 (edited) PR Lillibridge please. Steal 2B to lead the majors, lol. My Cousin Vinnie Pestano from Jersey Shore entering the contest. Pujols all the way down to .206. Never thought we'd see that in early May. And too bad Walker isn't the Braves' pitching coach, too. 13-13, back and forth, back and forth that game goes.

fathom Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 I'm sure Pastronicky will perform well for half a year and then fall off the face of the planet after the league adjusts and then he can't adjust Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've really never compared them as coaches, just how people react. If Sox hitters sucked, it ALWAYS was Walker's fault. If Sox pitchers suck, it NEVER was Cooper's fault. In the years they both coached full seasons, the pitching ranked higher than the offense in the AL the same amount of times the offense ranked higher than the pitching.

greg775 Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 That sucked big time. I know you can't bunt with Paulie, but at that stage of the game it woulda been nice to have runner on second and one out. Or Paulie coulda lashed a single to center. I hate losing. 4-3 entering the 9th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
