    Like I said the team doesn’t (and shouldn't) want to play for this bum. If we don't fire him this season is over.

    I almost wouldn’t be bothered by us not making the playoffs just to stick it to Crane for extending Baker out a year. Almost. Too many good things can happen once we get in though

    Man...you hate to see Greinke work his ass off only to see Bumbling Baker send Taylor in and give a game away. Just UNREAL.

    On a unrelated note. Did you see that they were gifted their 2nd run? A routine pop up became a leadoff triple because Robert got under the ball and proceeded to slip.

    Yeah if we could just convince him, ya know, "Hey toothy, we let someone else make the decisions around here, you just draw that check and smile for the camera, come out of the dugout every now and then...."

    No...just turned to watch them after we snatched defeat from the jaws of victory...should have beaten these stiffs 3 times and be up 5 and 1/2 but we continue our standard playing down to poor competition.

    Just one difference....pull the mask up over your eyes too...cause you aren't seeing what's going on anyway.

    That's not much to celebrate since we can't even beat lowly teams and the lead against them is still only 2.5 games.

    Listening to the post game radio and hearing Dusty trying to explain his ineptitude is just as frustrating as watching Taylor come in to the game.

    They don’t carry the post press stuff on the iHeart app but I’m guessing he said he went with “his gut” and wanted the lefty match up just like old times and save Graveman for the 8th. He’ll always have some excuse

    It was about Benentiendi not hitting Left handed pitchers well and Taylor was well rested. You can put that lost on him if you want.
    In a way same excuse he used to not walk Perez in the first game.
