This game was brilliantly managed by Girardi. You would think he's been doing this for years. Great job by Pinto and the pen, also. Even if the Marlins lose, everyone should see this game as a victory.

 

Except for maybe Nolasco.

is that a joke?

 

he f***ing blew it with Hanley

Yea, I really loved his move to have HanRam bunt in the 9th. :plain

hmm, NOT

 

Hanley bunting with two strikes is the worst move I seen a manager do in years

is that a joke?

Maybe Hanley should learn to f***ing bunt.

this must be sarcasm, because girardi's amazing managing cost us the game in the 9th.

Agreed. Hanley should have been swinging away with 2 strikes. An argument can be made but its a weak one. Still, this game was managed brilliantly, overall.

 

Remember: rookie manager.

Wait, Helms led off and singled, Moehler got by a pitch, and Hanley came up. Where are the two outs?

it was the right call to have hanley lay it down.

 

 

he should have taken the bunt off after 2 strikes, but hanley should get the damn bunt down in that situation. Its not that difficult to properly bunt if you know what the hell you are doing and remember those drills you do in March.

is that a joke?

Maybe Hanley should learn to f***ing bunt.

I think is more important that Girardi learns some basics of management. that would serve us better on the long run

Wow you have to be a genius when you are giving away outs in the 9th inning againts one of the toughes guys to hit off when the game is on the line. Way to go Joe. :notworthy :thumbup

is that a joke?

Maybe Hanley should learn to f***ing bunt.

maybe a manager shouldn't be telling a player who can't bunt to bunt with two strikes?

that was one of the dumbest moves I have ever seen

I don't understand Hanley is swinging the bat good in tonights game, and Giardi puts him to bunt, especially when Hanley can't bunt for nothing. Sad that we lost but it was a great game. Keep it up Fish

One of our greatest wins in history followed by such a disappointing loss. :confused

 

I can never get used to these games where we just basically give teams the win. This is the second time I can think of that we gave the game to the Mutts on errors.

 

PS. Note to Cabs & Uggs: Please swing at down the middle pitches with Wagner, you might have a good chance of doing something. :shifty

I ment with two strikes, and not two outs

is that a joke?

I don't understand how one call overshadows the entire game. Yes, it was a big call to miss but Hanley should be able to get a bunt down, two strikes or not. Hanley learning how to bunt would serve us better in the long run.

 

Look at it this way: If Girardi would've left Nolasco in any longer (which most managers would), the game probably would not have even been close.

you know wat yeah i didnt like the move either but we should not have had 4 error or not scored when we had we had second and third one out and couldnt even get a sac fly. but anyway the mets should not have scored 3 of those runs. that the reason we lost. but it was a great comeback, almost, and renyel did an excellent job

Hanley needs to learn how to lay down a damn simple sac bunt. All he can do is lay down a drag bunt when he is lucky.

Still my manager of the year, but he definitely got the dunce cap of the day. :banghead

Hanley should have gotten a bunt down before he had 2 strikes on him. If he got the bunt down with 2 strikes Joe would have been a genius. So....

while Hanley should be a good bunter, the bottom line is that right now he is AN AWFUL BUNTER

 

if you need a bunt there, PH with Treanor or someone... not this bulls***

Maybe he forgot that bunting with two strikes is stupid.

Not only is Hanley a lousy bunter, but Wagner was reeling at that point. Blows last night's game, gives up a hit, then hits a frigging pitcher...and Girardi gives him a free out. Even if Hanley had gotten the bunt down, I would've hated the decision.

Um...yea. He is fantastic.

 

Not that it matters, but did anyone understand the need to pinch-run Kensing for Olsen? I was kind of still in shock from the Hanley bunt with 2 strikes that I didn't understand that.
