caulfield12 Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 I'm sure Ventura will give some tepid "vote of confidence" to Duke after the game. Hard to give the set-up role to Jennings when he might have surrendered the biggest baserunner of the game with that walk. Purke, lol? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soxfan85 Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 I hate this team, and I hate this coach. Watching this awful baseball season after season, watching this awful coach season after season, is getting ridiculous. Trade Sale & Quintana to a damn team that can win something, they deserve it. They are wasting their talent with this crappy organization. I wouldn't trust our FO and scouting to get a proper return for them, either. That is how inept they are at anything.

SoCalSox Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 Not the team you want to blow a lead against this late. Yet another loss coming that should have been a win. I've counted 3-4 games over the last 3 weeks alone that Ventura's decisions have ultimately cost this team wins. Not sure I can watch this team much longer.

Whisox05 Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 QUOTE (soxfan85 @ May 27, 2016 -> 09:38 PM) HORRIBLE signing. One good year with this stupid "arm angle" crap. He has always sucked, and still does. Pathetic. Yes how many people didn't want Hahn to give the money to miller. I know alot of posters here wanted anyone else then miller for the money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 QUOTE (fathom @ May 27, 2016 -> 09:38 PM) Nate Jones can, but Duke continues to make my soul hurt with how much he sucks. In that case who pitches the 8th? If you extend Jones for both innings, there is a decent chance you lose him for the rest of the series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 (edited) QUOTE (fathom @ May 27, 2016 -> 08:41 PM) Shocked that Jones was a better match-up against Perez. Who'd a thunk it??? You just don't tempt fate the way Hosmer's been carrying them the last couple of weeks, especially in front of that home crowd.

Between Ventura, Hahn, Cooper and Steverson....they all could leave tomorrow and the organization wouldn't suffer. Ventura is choking worse than he did at the end of 2012.

If you extend Jones for both innings, there is a decent chance you lose him for the rest of the series. He gets the last batter of 7th and then the 8th. If he gets in trouble, you have Robertson. Neither has pitched since Monday. He ended up coming in for the 7th anyways, so I don't see your argument. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is Robin's thought process and it is a VERY bad one. Worry about the game in front of you, especially when the team is collapsing. Cross tomorrow's bridges when you get to them.

Of course if anyone else in the pen were actually doing their jobs, this wouldn't be an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sir Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 When we busted the perfect game and scored five, I sorta thought this could be the reverse of that Rangers disaster. Ya know, demotivated us after that huge de motivation. Little did I know it would end up being the Royals' version of that game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
