caulfield12 Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Marlins beat the Rockies 5-3, ALL EIGHT runs were scored on solo homers...now that's baseball for you. Great job by Abreu....he's proving he can hit fastballs again, even if he's still swinging at too much pitches outside the zone. Dubious pitch calling there by the Red Sox. Offspeed stuff off the plate and he's a dead duck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feeky Magee Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 The Ventura obsession here is a little excessive. Sure he makes some strange decisions (particularly with the lineup order though the importance of that isn't huge) but so do a lot of managers, the standard isn't exactly high. Ventura actually ranked in the top third in terms of good use of your best relievers in high leverage situations last year: http://grantland.com/the-triangle/2015-mlb...ny-joe-girardi/ Inspiring the players and creating a good atmosphere in the clubhouse is less tangible but it seems like in the last month anything bad the players do is on Robin and not on the fact that we have a lot of bad players. By far and away the White Sox's biggest problem has been talent evaluation. Nobody's really doing anything dramatically different than what you'd expect given their career numbers and random deviation. I like Hahn but his poor decisions have effected this team more than Robin's in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Jun 20, 2016 -> 08:36 PM) Red Sox manager in the 9th over managed. Normally, you expect Pedroia to win the game there...after that, it wasn't a surprise because of the inexperience. But using Kimbrel his 3rd straight day. Non-save opportunities, 4.35 ERA. Nearly unhittable in save situations. 17 consecutive scoreless outings at Fenway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 (edited) Bogaerts probably checked that swing...Sox catch a break. 0/19 for the first five hitters. Crazy. They must think Robertson's pitching for the Yankees, instead. Edited June 21, 2016 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 When he is on Robertson is nasty. The only pitcher in MLB history to average more than 10k/9 innings each of his first 7 seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not one against the other. The manager is the first thing that could be replaced and be done over night, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 LOL. Of course, there needs to be some drama with Robertson out there. Routine pop up to shallow LF, overshifted....that's where shifting can hurt you. Hanley Ramirez with a chance to tie it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
