By the way where's your Tex is a bust post today, I think he was 0 for 5 last night? |
I'll be honest. This is a bad group of middle relievers that Torre has been doing his best to deal with. Reminds me of a guy trying to get a a half-dead Rooster to fight longer than the other dieing bird. The only exception is Belasario. He has talent, but is not seasoned enough to be totally reliable. Most of the others are just ****. In the post, they gunna get tee'd up big time. Manny was a psychological advantage for these guys. Like a security blanket. When you take him away, and add in a pinching plate umpire, then you see what you saw last night. When you've got a very average reliever(Wade) getting pinched out of a 2nd out of an inning, it can lead to a lot of bad stuff. Funny thing was he pinched Beimel really badly ( on a what should of been an inning-ending strike out to get the Nationals off the hook (in the bottom 8th.) Then, Juana cam up, and missy lay down like the woman she be. There's a reason there were 20 runs scored. That umpire is a fkn fool. I swear that (what should of been 3rd strike) to Loretta was like barely as high as his lower ribs. That can't be called hi.
