canada-marlin24 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 And how fucking fitting was that 9th inning? Way to lose a crucial series on a must win day assholes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edmeister Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Making teams who are well out of anything look like they are good. Love how no one is finding the clutch to contribute to a play off. Much less the manager who will come out and imply that he thought Penny had "good stuff" just absolutely despicable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Vince0926 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 And mr. Mvp strikes out to end the game. Smoke and mirrors, my friends. His strikeout mirrors the delusion that the team is a playoff contender and that he himself is a real mvp. Complete exposure. Disgrace of a series. And holy hell what bad managing.

SongInTheAir Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Never go full retard, Redmond. I hate the concept of saving a bullpen. So lose today for sure IN CASE we're in a situation to win tomorrow? Stupid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canada-marlin24 Posted August 24, 2014 Author Share Posted August 24, 2014 Leaving Penny in to pitch the 7th after we made it 5-4 and then those two rockets being caught in the 9th was icing on the cake. And back under .500. Truth is that if we dont turn on the burners now its over. And you know what, that fuck tard Redmond surely saw the scoreboard and that everyone in front of us lost today. If I am the manager, I am in that dugout pushing guys and firing guys up telling them how bad we need this game. Not like get in their faces but push them to say there is no way they are going to lose this one, especially with the Angels and Braves coming up. Instead, he sits there and whispers to his girlfriend Leary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canada-marlin24 Posted August 24, 2014 Author Share Posted August 24, 2014 Johnson, Jones, and Mathis looked pretty pissed, dont know if it was because they lost or if they want to punch Redmond. Mathis slammed the railing when Solano's ball was caught. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone deserves an ass chewing, but how can redmond do that to himself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't fire up your offense when they know they're going to be in a hole no matter what with Penny on the mound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every game matters. Every inning matters. This "save the bullpen" bullshit is an insult to the team and to the fans. If you were to ask any guy in that bullpen if he would have been willing to come into today's game, I guarantee every single one of them would have said yes.

I will give Penny credit, he got through the 5th but after he gave up that 2-out run in the 6th that should have been it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope nope nope. You strike gold getting 2 outs to end the 5th. Quit while you are ahead of the curve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you were to ask any guy in that bullpen if he would have been willing to come into today's game, I guarantee every single one of them would have said yes. Yup. But apparently the players are little kids. Not adults. And again, last night i mentioned job descriptions. Why is ramos a 7th inning guy? When the 6th rolled around, you should have had him pitch or even dunn. Not brad fucking penny. I dont know. Tired of repeating myself.

Guest Vince0926 Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Playing through pain is fucking stupid unless its a bruise or something. If there was pain then the team would be entirely on the DL. If im redmond im thinking every day that all systems are go and the mission to win the game, regardless of yesterday or who we play tomorrow.

I think your best pitcher should come into the toughest situations. 3 run lead in the ninth? No need for the "best" reliever to come in. 3 straight lefties coming up in the ninth inning of a one run game? Go to the lefty, not the closer. I don't like the idea of bullpen roles either, but baseball is a business and closers make a lot more money than middle relievers. The MLBPA would frown strongly upon any team who legitimately did away with the closer role, even though it would most likely be the best move for the team as a whole.

8BitSamurai Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 This game was embarrassing. The way Redmond managed this game was a joke and an insult to the fans. I may spew.
