[Stradling]

We won, but let’s clean that shit up.

We won, but let's still bash Nevin anyway, because I had the OP ready to go thinking we would lose.

FIFY

I could change the name of this thread to, “Things Scioscia wouldn’t do” except he might ask Escobar to bunt or better yet he’d bring Stefanic off the bench and force him to bunt after failing the night before. Oh and Stefanic would get the bunt down the second time.

Hey Tyler this thread isn’t for you (or maybe you were my muse).

We are almost 100 games into this. I think we are past the point of being able to clean it up. This is what this team is, not good.

Another interesting observation of the win was that Jeff admitted to deleting the negative article he already had prepared and rewrite a good article.   At least he had the integrity to reconsider before posting.

Good on Jeff. That has zero to do with this post, but cool.

OK then we agree.  Nevin's decisions eventually resulted in another Halo win.

No. We don’t agree. The team won. Nevin made some bad decisions. Nevin decided to have Escobar bunt on two pitches, Escobar couldn’t bunt so he swung away and got a hit.  That isn’t Nevin making decisions leading to a win. That’s winning, oh and the manager made some bad decisions.

To me and others who study leadership, the fight/will to win/never say die/ mentality that this team has shown in multiple come from behind wins, is going to be the foundation toward building a winning culture. 

Small minds can debate tactics ad nauseum, but the winning culture that Nevin is in process of instilling in this franchise will be the more important and longer lasting impact.

[Stradling]

Yea ok. Because I don’t know or understand leadership. That’s fucking adorable.

Or fail to bunt twice and then hit a critical 3 run HR to give them the lead.

Because ESPN would have no original content other than He Said She Said, without it?

There has been an increase in the number of sacrifices lately.

Can we just bring back the vent thread.  That was my favorite besides the Meat Locker.  

[Blarg]

Today's game should create a few posts. 

[jonickell25]

Nevin really is a fucking dumbass. Cabbage is one of three players majors and minors with 20 homers and 20 steals but let’s take him out

[m0nkey]

Looks like it worked lol

[Docwaukee]

Nevin is a fucking moron.  

[Blarg]

Pitched to Bregman with two outs and a base open. 

[Jason]

So why was Cabbage pulled? Already injured?

put Barria in the game for a save and had his closer pitch the 8th in a non save situation.  What the actual F.  That's just legit stupid.
