WTF is Ventura doing? He just had to play the lefty/lefty match-up, didn't he? Newsflash Robin, Thornton is terrible right now. Myers must have been tired after those 3 pitches.

Thornton = loss

This is just ridiculous. Totally ridiculous.

This is worse than when Ozzie was here.

You hate Ventura, we get it

Doumit with a lead off double for the twinkies atleast... HOLD EM HERE

Why Thornton??? Seriously. This guy has cost us several ball games and Robin doesn't see it.

You hate Ventura, we get it

When it comes to managing a bullpen, yes I do. He's a moron.

Thornton is just terrible now. Just serving it up

If we can;t get anything out of Thornton, we're not going to the playoffs anyway.

Bring in Reed here please

Your beef is with coop

If we can;t get anything out of Thornton, we're not going to the playoffs anyway.

That makes no sense. Our playoff lives do not depend on Thornton.

Isn't it amazing how he never throws the fastball for a swing and miss after having to be one of the best in baseball a few years ago?

If we can;t get anything out of Thornton, we're not going to the playoffs anyway.

 

If our path to the playoffs requires Thornton then we are f***ed.

And Beckham is not even playing defense. What a bum he has become hitting wise.

Your beef is with coop

My beef is with Ventura. He is the manager.

Its easy to play monday morning quarterback, but you also need more than one set up man in this league

It is not worse than when Ozzie was here. Thornton gets paid well to pitch the 8th, mostly. On the other hand, I don't deny getting really jittery when Thornton comes in this year. Robin's probably thinking he'll need Myers tomorrow with Gavin pitching.

If our path to the playoffs requires Thornton then we are f***ed.

 

It does. Make of it what you will. Who else, besides Myers are you going to turn to in the pen?

By all accounts coop makes most of the bullpen decisions

At some point, you have to get outs from someone other than Crain and Myers. In other words, Thornton has to be used in this situation.

Monday morning QB? What are you talking about? Pretty much everyone on here prays they dont put Matt in. We don't need more than one set up man neither. Most teams have one. We have 2. Myers and Crain. Myers threw 3 pitches.

You can't use Myers everyday and no one else has any ideas of who else they want to pitch

It does. Make of it what you will. Who else, besides Myers are you going to turn to in the pen?

 

Crain...Jones.... They've got pretty good righty left splits between the 2
