AGonzalez11 Posted September 26, 2003 Share Posted September 26, 2003 Hate to tell you I told you so...But, I told you so. McKeon had some tough decisions to make with Looper/Urbina...he gave Looper all the chances in the world to keep his closer position and Breden failed miserably...But at the same time, He didn't let Loopers failures bring the team down. That just shows me how great of a manager he really is...He's fair enough to give his players chances to succeed, But is also smart enough to know when to quit and put in the right people to win games. Hopefully Looper can regain his form and pitch well for the playoffs because we're obviously a better team with him pitching well...But Urbina is this teams closer. The only thing Looper will be fighting for is the right to set up Urbina, and it looks like Fox has the upper hand right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamrock Posted September 26, 2003 Share Posted September 26, 2003 Looper will be setting up Fox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotcorner Posted September 26, 2003 Share Posted September 26, 2003 that wasn't McKeon "stepping up", that was Looper blowing a few games. what "tough decision" did he have? if McKeon stuck with Looper at this point, he'd be getting ripped by every writer & fan in the country. nice to see that Loop isn't taking it too hard though, he'll get it together hopefully.

AGonzalez11 Posted September 26, 2003 Author Share Posted September 26, 2003 Well, When i posted a similar topic last week saying Urbina should be put in as closer all I received back was some sarcasm and mocking from certain posters.

Ramp Posted September 26, 2003 Share Posted September 26, 2003 Well, When i posted a similar topic last week saying Urbina should be put in as closer all I received back was some sarcasm and mocking from certain posters. at the time, he had blown 1 save(that week)... what did you expect? every single one of us here would have said Uggy should be closer if Loop goes on a slide.... nothing new there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

83Gator Posted September 26, 2003 Share Posted September 26, 2003 Keep squirming RAMP... you deserve it. (Not for your opinion but for your attitude!) To paraphrase somebody's post from yesterday regarding football (I can't remember who made the post), "Please keep personal discussions off our baseball forum. See today's thread regarding Uggy and Looper. There's another place for that." Arnie, for somebody who complains publically anytime somebody steps one inch out of line (in your opinion), you sure do like to dish it out. We're going to the playoffs - be happy. Play nice.

Arnie1941 Posted September 26, 2003 Share Posted September 26, 2003 RAMP rips everyone at every opportunity with one-line zingers. Cheap shots from the Big Shot who is coddled by the forum because he paid his way on. Then, I have 83Gator "paraphrasing" me totally out of reality. Keep sucking up together.
