    Sorry Castro, looking like Gattis will play more and more at catcher. Hopefully tomorrow is one of those days.

    Giles-Feliz-Harris IMO.

    However, I could see AJ going Feliz-Giles-Harriis and wanting to see Feliz pitch in more tough situations before giving him the 8th.

    Was driving all afternoon. Just came in to b****. Even I said Gregerson *had* to be replaced after last game, combined with the rest of the bullpen's performance. Inexcusable. Completely.

    I was fine with giving him a long leash but it's time to end it. Put Harris in there.

    I agree with leaving Harris in the 8th, but it may be hard to not give him the first shot, giving how he's pitching.

    I'd go straight to Giles too. But would be surprised if they go that route, since he's clearly currently the least deserving of the 3.

    So none of it is on the players at all?

    Wins are on the players, losses are on the managers. Amiright?

    Absolutely. I know it has its risks but I would have asked for a bunt.

    SEcond, lefties are hitting under .120 against Doolittle, and what does our GREAT MANAGER DO? Keeps a right handed hitter in White instead of using him instead of Colby or Valbuena.

    yes, players win and lose games, but manager should try to give best opportunity to succeed, Hinch is very bad at that facet of the game, he could learn a lot from a guy like Maddon.

    Because benching the guy who has the 3rd highest OPS among catchers vs RHP, in all of baseball.....

    Is a "good" idea

    Lol

    The best thing in the world, especially when they all have been producing well as of late! :)
