I'm just consistently astonished at baseball fans immediate reaction to blame the manager when the player completely fucks up. In this case, the manager is an idiot for not bringing in a right handed hitter to face a right handed pitcher, because it's somehow a guarantee that he would hit a flyball. Putting in the lefty who SHOULD be able to handle the bat is complete insanity.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
If you're going to call for a bunt, put in a guy who bunts from time to time. Valverde was all over the place. You send Bradley home when Valverde's pitch was as likely to be a foot outside as it was a strike? Stupid move for so many reasons. If we lose this game, it's on Lou.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->


Of course it's Lou's fault. It's always Lou's fault when we lose. This will be just one of 40 games we lose this year that will be "on Lou", either because of pitching changes, batting order, or asking a guy to hit a bunt fair or foul.

I swear Butch, you would fucking read "Casey at the Bat", and blame the manager for letting Casey bat.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

C'mon BT, I think we all realize that blaming the manager for making bad decisions gets blown outta proportion. But you can't possibly think what Lou did in the 9th was anything but completely assinine.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Yes, I completely can. You are welcome to disagree, but it was a high return/low risk move. There are only 2 ways it doesn't work. A popup, or Fontenot completely shitting the bed and being unable to FOUL OFF A FUCKING BUNT. For the record Bob and Len are just as crazy as I am.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I'm unable to comprehend that argument after the pitcher has already indicated that he couldn't throw strikes. Squeeze play never crossed my mind when a walk, a ground ball to the middle infield, or a medium depth flyball wins the game.
