Also IMO.. some of our pitchers (not Shane Smith) make too many mistakes with their change-up and probably should not be throwing it until they improve on it and get more consistency. It should not be a pitch like a knuckle ball where a pitcher releases it and wonders where it might go. It should not end up center cut, slow and just waiting to get wailed on. I agree, Leisure was dealing and Veneble decided to go the safe route, huge mistake and I’m not saying this after the fact 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s a stunning lack of talent on the roster, but his decision making seems bad. I still think they should have given the job to Sizemore, I’m tired of rookie managers.

Actually not, I think he did a good job last year but yeah I would have been happier with a veteran manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good veteran managers cost real money. Years ago JR went on the record saying he never thought managers (or head coaches) made that much of a difference.
