My God, we have a terrible manager. Teheran had pitched great and had the lead when his spot came up in the 7th with runners on corners. PH FF right there fredi!!!!!!!!!!! Get Teheran out with confidence and perhaps get another run. Instead we let Teheran hit and then take him out after leadoff double with 0 outs. Fredi is dumb as a rock
Then to compound his dumbness fredi brings in Donnie veal! Veal! You serious fredi? MF'ing veal? Lead gone
beat me to it. but we're close to .500, he's such a great manager............Bullshite. we win in spite of him.Quote:

Fredi is dumb. My wife even commented" what was he thinking leaving Tehran in to hit ?". Ever since playoffs 2 years ago, I have been willing to can him.
What compounded the terrible decision to let Teheran hit is FF is on the benchQuote:

I don't think letting Gomes hit there was near as dumb as the other 2 moves, but dumb nevertheless. Gomes is completely useless vs rhp. Cunningham has been really struggling, but he can hit a fastball. That was a fastball pitcher. I'd much rather have Cunningham ph there. If the pitcher decides to throw offspeed then he's not throwing his best pitch. If he throws fastball, Cunningham can turn it around. Cunningham just can't hit anything other than a fastball
Veal had an 11.25 era coming into this game. I just don't understand how that move didn't work*
Oh and on that whole 7th inning situation... We pulled CJ for defense, but left Gomes in lf even though Teheran has been giving up fly balls. Cunningham runs that double down
Good thing FF's hr is in the 9th down 2 instead of runners on corners in 7th
My man, peterson
Bochy must suck at baseball managing too!!***
He did screw up not bringing in lhp to face Peterson.Quote:

Shoeless... You think letting Teheran hit, bringing in veal, and not subbing Cunningham in lf were good moves?
If petersen doesn't triple then he didn't screw up...if Crawford doesn't boot the grounder it's a moot point anyhow.Quote:

Love Crawford but that's the worst error I've ever seen him have
Well me and about 50 other brave fans were raising hell on Braves' message board before the disaster. It was beyond a bad move.Quote:
