The fact that they ever planned to waste Gurriel’s arm at second base annoys me.
Posted
Lourdes faked the 3rd base coach out with his slow running thinking the runner would score easily.

 

Clearly Montoyo has been tutoring Gurriel Jr on the art of 4D chess.

If Montoyo is trying to get fired hes doing an amazing job of setting himself up. Atkins just needs to knock out of the park. Ball is on a tee for him.

I am saying it doesn't matter over the context of winning or losing this game. It is a comment to those saying that Montoyo is throwing the game.[/quoteuch

 

This is you playing the manager doesn't matter card and one game doesn't matter. The Angels could bat Mike trout 9th and still win a game. The more they did it eventually it would cost them games. Montoyo's had several bad lineups. They are starting to add up. You never know what game it's going to be where such a ridiculous decision costs you a game. It could be game one, it could be 10.

 

It's like drinking and driving. There's a good chance you drink too much and drive home you'll make it without getting a DUI or getting in an accident. That doesn't mean you should ever do it. The more you do it, eventually a horrible outcome will happen.

 

Worst analogy ever. NEVER drive drunk. I am saying the studies show that the optimal lineup every game vs. The worst lineup is about 30 runs a year. People are making way to big a deal about it. If it becomes a habit there should be arms thrown....if drinking and driving is a habit kill yourself please

I'm surprised Lowe is batting 2nd. Shouldn't he bat 8th?

 

Agreed. Rays scored a run, but if they were smart and put the catcher Perez at the 2 spot, it would have given Lowe a chance to do damage later. Cash doesn't know better.

I never drive drunk. Never set your lineup drunk either. We're not talking about hitting a guy 4th instead of 2nd. We're talking about taking one of your best hitters and hitting him 8th and taking one of our worst and hitting him 3rd. It's stupid and everyone should be pissed about it.
