I already did.

On the contrary you are seriously in error on that front. I very much give credit where credit is due. Perhaps you don't analyze as much as I do but my career made me that way. Try writing 4000 or so game stories and avoid being analytical.

Would agree that many managers would be on the negative side of the equation, but not to this level and still have a job.

I'm basing it on the pitcher I watched get 6 outs on Sunday. Why do like the Pagan choice? (This should be good)

Arbitrary or not 2019;-10, 2020 -10, 2021 -15 and so far in 2022 -9

Or perhaps let Jax go one more and give Duran 9 and 10 given that extras seemed likely. There were options beyond flying the Hindenburg again.

An improper assumption on your part. But whatever. Have a great night!

I believe his name is Thornburg. But I do know this MOST managers would not have handed the ball to Pagan given the events of the last 10 days. And he had made that decision before Kepler's AB. In what universe would you think he made the proper choice?

Replay tonight's 10th inning. Case closed.

Although I didn't think insults were allowed here. Hmmm

Feel free to defend him. -44

I'm sorry but it's really very simple. Managers make decisions all the time that impact outcomes and Mr. Baldelli has gone against the grain on 43 occasions that did prove to be a positive when the vast majority of managers would have gone in a different direction and produced a different result. That is my opinion and I'm not inclined to further defend it.

Then I certainly apologize as I mistook you sharing the information of all of the people you know as something less than fact. But I get it. This is very much a pro Baldelli board. I'm just not one of his cheerleaders and that's hardly trolling. But again. I'm done with this topic.

Okay, please try to follow this. Manager A makes questionable decision, one that would not be made by most professional managers and said decision takes a result that most managers would have placed in the left hand column and places it on the right side of the ledger. For that outcome Manager A receives a WAR of -1. I began my tally in early April of 2019 when the level of inexperience was apparent, although that season said Manager was saved more than once by the Bombo Squad. The number now stands at -43 after a particularly brutish summer of 2021. You asked. I answered and I am done with this topic. Thank you for the discussion.

It isn't/wasn't.
