    Dusty tried to get cute. Probably should have paid attention to some of those fan stats.

    I do appreciate Dusty leaving his guy out to dry tonight after what transpired last night.

    Way to fast track his demise in a hurry.

    Should have had somebody else warming up (Pressly, Neris, Stanek) once it started to get ugly. WTH was that.

    It's funny how Dusty plays guys playing bad more often. He better not do this **** in the playoffs.

    Dusty is going to have to wear this one. Yes we needed more than 2 runs but just terrible pitching managment.

    This is EXACTLY why Dusty has never won a WS, he has a team that can't hit curve balls, sliders, and balls that move, and you bring in a guy who last night was getting lit up with his 96mph straight down the middle fastballs.

    Then, after he loads the bases, having given up the lead you leave him in....I mean it is STAGGERING - it was clear when they caught up that MONTERO doesn't have it.....YANK his ass.

    This is what scares me about Dusty, he is not as good as Hinch at recognizing when pitchers need to be pulled.

    I have an idea. Instead of sending Montero out, just forfeit the game. Pretty much the same thing.

    Out of everyone in the bullpen you put in Montero. And not only does he blow it, you leave him in to face back to back left handed batters.

    Beating a dead horse but this World Series will be won in spite of Dusty.

    That wasn't the best position to put a struggling pitcher in.
    Could have used Stanek.

    I was surprised it was Montero.
