May 5, 201016 yr Lets just keep Leroux out there even though two guys whacked balls off him and you just made him walk the bases loaded. AHAHAHAHA IDIOT!
May 5, 201016 yr Author Yes, cause this is the first backfired move any manager has ever made. No its probably the fourth Fredi has made in this game alone.
May 5, 201016 yr Yes, cause this is the first backfired move any manager has ever made. No its probably the fourth Fredi has made in this game alone. Oh, sorry. I forgot to [/sarcasm] at the end of the sentence.
May 5, 201016 yr Yes, cause this is the first backfired move any manager has ever made. No its probably the fourth Fredi has made in this game alone. Name all of them. I mean, seriously. If he's this bad, you have to be able to name all 4 obviously terrible moves he has made in the game. I'm going to guess if he had brought in someone to pitch with the bases loaded, you would've said "WHY WOULD YOU BRING IN (Insert reliever X, Y, or Z)? FREDI IS THE MOST STUPIDED!"

In regards to the four terrible moves, I most likely exaggerated, but I did miss the first three innings so who knows what I missed. And after you ask a pitcher to intentionally walk the bases loaded you do not leave him in. Don't care who you bring in, they are most likely BETTER than LeRoux
May 5, 201016 yr Oh did you really exagerate? Shocking. Leroux's been great this year. Why not let him try to get it? He got the first two outs with no problems. You're a kneejerk.

May 5, 201016 yr I think he's a major league manager. He very rarely, if ever, does things that 80% of managers in the bigs don't do. So unless you're bitching and moaning about the Bruce Bochy's of the world too, you're being a knee jerk. Bro.
May 5, 201016 yr This isn't worth a thread, but I'll say this. Fredi has to be one of the 5 worst managers when it comes to managing the bullpen in the majors. However, he is VERY good when it comes to deciding who to pinch hit and send in as defensive replacements.
May 5, 201016 yr So, we went from "Is Fredi the worst manager in baseball? He had FOUR mistakes in this game!!!!" To "Fredi is not that good of a manager. You trying to argue that?" :lol
May 5, 201016 yr I think his daily insistence on pulling Gaby in the 8th for defensive purposes is pretty stupid, actually. Gaby's not great defensively, and admittedly it does improve our defense moving Cantu to 1B and Barden or Wes to 3B, but there's been a couple of situations where we could've used his bat and had to settle for the Brian Bardens and Mike Lambs of the world.
May 5, 201016 yr Author I know this qualifies as knee-jerk lololol, BUT, thanks for leaving Badenhop in for a THIRD inning Fredi.
May 5, 201016 yr Our alternatives aren't really that great. If you take out Badenhop, it means you bring in either Jones, Pinto, or Sanches. I'd say you'd want to save Sanches as much as possible since he's the best option we have left, so really it was down to Pinto or Jones. Given that Badenhop did well his first two innings, I'd say it's reasonable to think he's a better option than Pinto or Jones. If Fredi had brought in Pinto or Jones and they blew it, I am quite sure you would have said he is the worst manager for making such an obviously stupid move.
May 5, 201016 yr The problem was not leaving him in too long, it was letting him face a LHB with the bases loaded.
May 5, 201016 yr I don't think Jones has gotten a single hitter out this year, unless I missed something.
May 5, 201016 yr I know this qualifies as knee-jerk lololol, BUT, thanks for leaving Badenhop in for a THIRD inning Fredi. Yes because his other options available were awesome. The game was lost when Leo Nunez and John Baker decided to be dumbasses, thinking it would be cool to use the closer's 3rd best pitch in a 1 run game.

May 5, 201016 yr Oh well tonight was one that got away. Tomorrow is another chance. We'll win, its not the end of the world brother.
May 5, 201016 yr Oh well tonight was one that got away. Tomorrow is another chance. We'll win, its not the end of the world brother. Yeah, but when you have a chance to win a game started by Tim Lincecum, you have to capitalize on that opportunity.
