Okay, one of you has to explain why this guy is still throwing. 2 run home run and a double.

Full count now with the tying run at 2nd.

Regardless of who wins, the manager choked...hard. I dont give a **** what you have in your pen, you are nursing a lead, you get shields up if you have to.

Howell's pretty money too. I would've had him in there, but it's moot now.

Without the double Papeldouche gave up, Sox would be winning now.

That would be an even worse idea than keeping Wheeler in. hell you could blow 2 starters in one game not to mention Shields would need a lot more warmup time than a normal reliever. I wonder why he didnt put Howell in to start the inning since Wheeler is supposedly the closer.

I have to think that the pitchers who threw **** piches choked more than the manager. He can only put them in, it is up to them to get guys out. You cant call time out in baseball. The guys who blew the lead are the same guys who have filled in those roles pretty well this year. Though i would have probably had more faith in Price who is probably the most talented pitcher they have.

I have a feeling this will be the biggest mush thread in the history of internet forums.

I hear you. Again, though, i think a big part of a manager's job is to keep players out of situations where they have a good chance to fail.

Pitcher gives up a two run homer, a hard hit double to mark kotsay. He doesnt have it clearly. Why leave him in? Bring in somebody else to get that last out.
