And come on, do you think Maddon had a "gut feeling" to do that?

I have never assumed that a player or coach didn't want to win.  It seems stupid since winning is how you keep your job.

Its all such BS.  He did what he always does, he tried to make himself the story.  They won in spite of him, like the Cubs did the WS

I listened to the Rangers broadcast on the intentional walk and they couldn't believe it. Just dumbfounded why anyone would make that move even with a hitter like Seager at the plate. 

I heard the same thing - had the Rangers feed on SiriusXM.

Of course Maddon wants to win. But he's not going to get fired for losing a random game against the Rangers in April.

Maybe he should though? Happens in the NBA all the time

I love USC football. Their fans think Riley is an automatic fix and that they are back.

They should go undefeated.

Disagree with first sentence, second one is spot on.

IP is humble, too.

Scoreboard, baby, scoreboard!  In my mind, if you aren't courageous enough to do unconventional things you are just trapping yourself into mediocrity like every one else.

The Astros are still 0.5 games ahead.

AW starting to embrace the real Maddon.  He's the Joe West of managers.  Wants to get out his guitar, RV, and glass of wine.  Hey look!  I'm edgy and cool!  He's the definition of the 'right place, right time' manager.  And wants so bad to get out from under that shadow.   Scioscia, Friedman, Eppstein.  So he's trying to carve a place where his antics lead to a visible win to the social media crowd and where the other 9 of ten times his BS doesn't work flies under the radar.  

MS was bland to a fault perhaps.  But.  But. But.  He's available.  

Maybe Maddon is the @cals of managers.  Looking for a reaction, and if you get one, you've won.  Maybe Maddon is @cals.   Did you ever thin of that? Queue the math gifs.

Not to worry, Maddon has been saving a quirky little quote to pin up in the clubhouse for just this type of situation. .

LOL this is like Biden driving gas prices up to $10 per gallon just to "motivate" people to buy electric cars.

 ..... is that why Arte never pays for pitching? Trying to get the offense to hit?.... 

 

"If we stop the other team from scoring, that encourages our guys not to hit. Our goal is to have to score 15 runs to win by 2040" - Some internal memo

Nice line up today, dipshit!
