Funny how it's always a great job by the player when he does his job, but always a horrible job by the manager when they don't. Just funny.


so you would have left Holland in there? all i said was that both Holland and Washington didn't do their jobs TODAY. Up to now i have thought Wash has done a fantastic job but i think today he left Holland in there too long. i know he was trying to let Holland pitch his way out of his troubles but a blind man could see that Holland was just not mechanically sound today. he was getting under his pitches which forced everything up. why else would Wash have Maddux get Feldman up in the 2nd inning and then again in the 3rd?

if i'm wrong i'll be quick to admit it but i think both Holland and Wash for once did not do their jobs.

I'd agree with you had Holland not started to get his pitches over the last few batters. He was one batter away from getting yanked, and that batter was Rayburn. I'm not gonna blame Wash for not wanting to overwork the pen after that rain crap on Saturday.

Am I the only one who finds Brian Wilson to be completely obnoxious and not funny in any way, shape, or form?

That pitch was in the other freaking batters box! How was that a strike to Murphy?

Max S. is a little wild but they are swinging at too many balls! They're letting him off the hook.

They feel like they have to swing at everything because this strike zone is so assinine.

okay but he's carrying 2 long relievers just in case something like this happens. and Holland was lucky to get of the 1st and 2nd without giving up runs. and a deep flyout to center, a double, a HB, a homer and a double doesn't count to me for getting his pitches over. he was starting to try and guide the pitches over and was getting slugged.
