TMI, man. TMI.

 

I was watching the news with my wife... Gruesome story and I told my wife that I was rarely shocked anymore. So she bought me one to take care of that.

 

Innocent story really.

Hey, what two consenting adults do in the privacy of their own doghouse is none of my business.

The Bullpen was gonna be tagged eventually... We can't assume that Gardy can safely avoid Bullpen landlines every night.

 

Hernandez pitched Ok until the wheels came off and Cleveland has been stroking it pretty good lately.

 

And we put up 6 runs with a couple of dingers.

 

It was an OK night... I can live with it.

He got careless with substitutions too. That could have cost us big if the game got longer. I didn't think Willingham stood much of a chance vs. Perez in a RHP vs. RH matchup and his career numbers were 1-7 against him at the time.

 

I think he was trying to win it in the 10th, so it wouldn't go much longer, and I can't fault him for that. I'd rather have him be aggressive and try to win than be passive and try not to lose.

 

And Fien had only thrown 13 pitches - no reason not to send him back out, although again once the runner got in scoring position it would have been reasonable to bring in a fresher arm.

And once you start going extras... Everyone has to stretch out and go extra innings because you never know how long it will go. No LOOGYS in extras.

There was no reason to think Willingham would have gotten a hit off of Perez. Willingham is hitting .214 off of RHP. Ramirez, I understood, but not Willingham. That would have allowed Hicks to remain in defensively and have Ramirez sub for Parmelee.

.214... That means that he's done it before.
