    He’s watching with his sunglasses on. Drinking a bottle of wine and laughing.

    At some point in the future, you ****ing muppets will get the **** over Dusty Baker.

    Hopefully. Soon.

    There's a whole new season happening.

    We maybe will, but wasting a legit World Series team is a tough pill to swallow. Will i ever get over game 7 scott foster? I doubt it. This is arguably even worse since it was self inflicted

    Oh Dusty was bad alright. I say let's give Espada some time before declaring him brain dead, too.

    was dusty great? no but he was smart enough to know not to bring in singleton in the situation or time Joe did. That was just too soon for a pinch hitter and what has singleton done

    Singleton has done exactly what he did last season when Dusty was pinch hitting him. Diaz had 3 hits, which is impossible to do while sitting on the bench -- exactly where Dusty played him last season. Espada went with the L-R matchup with Jon. Many managers do, especially Dusto. The 6th inning isn't exactly an early game situation, especially the BOTTOM of an inning. Your post is a bit nitpicky and it gives Dusty too much credit.

    um ok but i'm pretty sure Joe said he believes in meyers and meyers already went deep in the game so you don't trust him in that situation and you trust singleton more due to the L-R matchup. I'm pretty sure that boosted meyers confidence lol

    So ****ing dumb. Maldy would be starting every game and Diaz would be sitting on the bench with his 1500 ops.
