Keep the DP in order. even if he gets him the runner gets to scoring position. Had someone on the Red Sox done that and made a bad throw you'd be all over them for trying something so fundamentally wrong.

 

I agree with Grant

You make the throw if the baserunner makes a poor decision like that

You agree with Grant, I agree with Buck.

I understand what you are saying and it's usually correct, but I don't think you're taking into account just how far away that runner was. He probably doesn't even slide if the third baseman can field it with a foot on the bag.

Ernie screwed it up.

 

He got away with Aumont.

 

He got away with using Albers for an inning too but he went back to him for another inning when he shouldn't have. He should have started the inning fresh with one of his interesting AAA guys.

 

Then when they got in trouble he should have just went to Brash.

 

Now it will take a miracle to make Brash relevant. Not smart.

He’s like 90 and hasn’t played in years, what do you expect?

He had it set up perfectly. Got through the first 5 innings using some of his worst pitchers including Aumont and they were only down 1 despite Mexico having Urquidy on the bump.

 

Whitt had 4 interesting AAA guys along with Brash all ready to go.

 

Yet he goes back to Albers for more and gets burnt. Pathetic.

Time to dump Whitt and all the other dinosaurs and go heavy on advanced stats and scouting and then game the eligibility rules to build a good team.

 

No more Aumonts or Albers and get as many American born players as it takes. Mexico does it and their team is stacked.

Its moreso the pitching side than the position player side. Canada could put out a pretty good pitching staff if everyone was healthy and actually wanted to show up. The staff this time around was putrid.

The fact that Brash didn’t even pitch in an elimination game is a sin

Columbia beats the US 14-13 tonight to push us into the next round. Then PR finishes off the DR so Vlad has no choice but to play for Canada in the next round.

 

Fire Ernie Whitt and let an AI program make the pitching changes with Freeman and Vlad batting in the middle of the lineup. We aren't out of this yet boys.

Teo laughing it up while his team is losing. I will not miss that guy!

 

I'll miss his 2 HR games. But not his defense or decision making or lackadaisical attitude.
