"Very not good" is more succinct tho

Where does Girardi rank among managers in your opinion?

Dave Cameron

10:11

Top 10

Tom

10:11

Dave, what's your walk up song?

Dave Cameron

10:11

The Duck Tales theme song.

Rosin Bag

10:11

It’s amazing how little confidence managers have in perfectly good pitchers, and how much confidence they have in slightly better pitchers to pitch in ways they are accustomed to.

Dave Cameron

10:12

Tommy Kahnle: 17 of 25 pitches were changeups. He never threw more than 11 in any other outing this year.

Yeah.

Endy Chavez

10:12

I saw them patting Morton on the back in the dugout. Am I the only one thinking they should keep him in the game?

Stephen Loftus

10:12

Possibly

Dave Cameron

10:12

The big question after the game is where Kahnle's fastball went.

Yes, you are, Endy.

Hunky Dory

10:13

If you throw a change up 17/25 pitches, it's not a change-up.

I thought I was watching Fernando Rodney.

Bill

10:13

Given that Kahnle wasn't feeling right - why leave him out there?

Dave Cameron

10:13

Yup. That's the story.

And also why you have someone warming up constantly in Game 7s.

10:13

I still would say Girardi is quite good in managing RPs during the season. Not burning 1 guy version of Joe Torre, if you don't mind.

Dave Cameron

10:13

Agreed.

Not quite as good this October.

10:14

Endy is not alone, I am with Endy. Go Yankees! Leave Morton in for 9

Chris

10:14

Think Girard should be back?

Dave Cameron

10:14

If he wants to be, yeah.

No manager is perfect.

Girardi has his warts but he's more good than bad.

Jeff

10:15

in your opinion, what has been the most perplexing manager decision this postseason so far?

Dave Cameron

10:15

Batting Kyle Schwarber 2nd against lefties, maybe.

Sadman

10:15

What percent chance do we see verlander now that the Astros have padded the lead?

Dave Cameron

10:15

Much lower.

They shouldn't use him unless its a 1 or 2 run game.

The comeback is on!

Eric

10:16

Schwarber 2nd was pretty bad against Wood -- unconscionable against Kershaw. Still less bad than Werth 2nd / Rondon 6th for entire series.

Lunar verLander

10:16

Top of the 9th, 1 run game, do you bring in Giles or Verlander?

Dave Cameron

10:16

Judge bomb on the way

Canyonero Driver

10:16

Judge should try to hit a double. If he hits a HR, the rally ends.

Judge took a cookie.

Missed a hanging curve. Exhale
