Joe is back with his postgame thoughts….
Apologies up front to the Joe Maddon apologists,SuperBowl Patrick Willis Jersey, but it was damn foolish to leave Kyle Farnsworth on the hill in the eighth inning — with a two run lead — for anything beyond?the first two,cheap lions nike jerseys 365djerseys.com Y6?walks he allowed.
Farnsworth isn’t some young pitcher needing confidence, or a borderline fragile mental patient–type?like J.P. Howell,anquan boldin jersey 365djerseys.com R5. He’s a 36yearold who’s worked in relief for the majority of his career. He knows the hook is coming, and deserved, when it’s clear he’s not sharp in a critical spot.
But no, Maddon let Farnsworth struggle his way to four eighthinning walks before giving way to Jake McGee, who couldn’t hold the lead.
Inexcusable.
This Joe couldn’t bear to listen to the postgame show to hear a bunch of drivel about saving the bullpen, or sticking with Farnsworth. There’s a game against the division leader?in front of you to close out in the eighth. You go get it. You don’t play for another day with a sweep against the Yankees on the line.
Poor David Price, who did just about as much as possibly could be expected to get a win,Wholesale J.J. Watt Jersey.
Joe is especially peeved to have witnessed this debacle alongside what had to be close to a 5050 split of Yankee fans at the Trop. Definitely the worst ratio Joe could remember in some time. Joe’,memphis grizzlies jerseys;s so mad he could hit someone with a bat. Perhaps he’ll use the one Luke Scott keeps on his shoulder.
