Great pitching by Crain. Crappy managing by Ozzie.

 

Are you serious? Matt's our setup man and Crain bailed us out.

Some people never blame the f***ing players!

5 outs is a lot for a regular closer. You don't do that against the dodgers in may.

Not to sound like a grandfather, but if you said that to any reliever 10 or more years ago, they would laugh at you.

That should have been the case to begin the inning.

 

Or...a pitcher making 4 million dollars could get a few outs.

 

Ozzie doesn't make the team, KW does. Thornton is what Ozzie has, so he uses him. Can't pitch Crain in place of Thornton every night...otherwise there's no point in having Thronton.

 

Bottom line, that wasn't crappy managing, it was good managing, he took out the wrong guy at the right time.

Crain hasn't pitched in two days.

And Thornton is our setup man...and its the 8th, when setup men pitch.

 

If Ozzie had put in Crain, as you asked, at the start of the inning, and Crain blew the hold, you'd be b****ing that Ozzie didnt go with our regular setup man...so in the end, this was a lose lose situation for Ozzie, because you are openly and obviously biased.

You're acting like Thornton and Crain are on equal ground, they're clearly not, not this season. One one hand, you have a guy who hasn't given up a run in I don't know how long, on the other, you have a guy with a 6 ERA. You tell me which guy is the better choice to go to in a 1 run game.

Yawn..ya know some people won't give up criticizing Ozzie even of they win the game. Don't waste your time.

Exactly.

So now we don't even use Matt?

He's on the team.

There is no instance where Thorton should be pitching over Crain right now.

 

 

Thorton should have thrown the 9th last night to get some work in
