Jose Abreu Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 23, 2016 -> 04:17 PM) This might be the worst ump performance I have seen I feel like I've seen people post this in half of the game threads this season, and honestly, it's warranted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chw42 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 23, 2016 -> 04:16 PM) Robertson's fastball is so bad. 90 down the plate is pathetic from your closer Pretty sure it's a cutter if it's only 90. But if it's straight, then it's a fastball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eminor3rd Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Literally every pitcher in this game has pitched like garbage. The bad ones and the good ones. Are you guys seriously still trying to blame this loss on the manager? Like I get being mad and frustrated, but not blaming the players for playing like s*** is baffling. Robin put righties against righties and lefties against lefties. Wtf else do you want him to do? It's the AL. Players have to execute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soxforlife05 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Robin will never learn. Always puts in garbage relievers with a lead until they blow the lead, then puts in the good relievers after it's too late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shysocks Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Using your closer on the road in a tie game is fine. Can't take a lead if you can't get to the next inning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chw42 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 I still think Robertson might be hurt. His walk rate is way up from last year and there's just games where he clearly doesn't have any command. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chw42 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 The only thing I can blame Robin for this game is putting in Albers before Jennings and maybe not leaving Jennings in for the 7th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your best highest leverage relievers. Jennings to relieve Shields and Jones in for Beck with the bases loaded. You don't let bums like Albers and Beck lose you the game.
