Dbacks @ Giants series thread Aug 4th - Aug 6th

[Shaggy]

Ok just wanted to make sure.

This is pretty much exactly how my Pop described gm 2 to me. Said Walker was at 100pitches (99) and it was clear he was done yet TL left him out there and he gave up 2 doubles and a HR.

TL has obviously done some good things this year, but baseball is a dynamic game. You cant play it on paper. You have to, you know, WATCH the game and have a feel for when your pitchers are struggling not just stick to arbitrary numbers that sound good in soundbytes and look great as quotes.

I realized the Dbacks yet again left a crapload on base and all that, but if we win gm2 it doesn't matter much, we still win the series. Sounds like TL gave this one away plain and simple.

PS just watched TL's postgame presser. Good lord am I tired of hearing about how "tired" the bullpen is. You're professional pitchers, go pitch. TL just using that as an excuse to deflect.

The bullpen guys pitch what, 2 innings tops? How are any of them tired?

Exactly. And some of them go out and pitch to 1 or 2 guys and the freakin announcers will be like; Archie is worn out! He threw 14 pitches yesterday!

How many times have we got killed in the 7th inning because our starter ran out of gas and was left dangling in the wind by Luvollo?

I missed them too. I have forgiven Bert.

No hope? We lost 3 games in LA by 1 run? Now we are at home. SMH
