you'd think aj hench would learn

[zeketaylor]

dan haren has bad luck....this is widely known


every time he exits a 6 or 8 inn gem.....zona promptly gives up lead......playin rockies in colorado.....they always come back......haren at 110 pitches is way better than most relivers fresh.....i have seen this at least 4 times this year......how does the guy expect to keep his job when he doesnt learn from mistakes......

leave haren in, and u wouldnt have surrendered a late inning 2 run lead.....and be about to lose

 

[zeketaylor]

now the frickin idiot brings in lefty to face helton....and he promptly walks him on 4 pitches with runner on 2nd....and in hench's genius...he leaves him in to face clean up hitter righty....win or lose...its the wrong move

ya well it just fucked my under bad. got under 9 but i dont even have hope for a push

 

[zeketaylor]

the next time i make a square ass bet ona worse pitcher on a team that is in "must win" situation, i hope some last place team not trying to win surrenders the game late because they are "trying to see what guys are made of"......


thats like an excuse to make poor managing decisions, you would never make, as an excuse for why ur a last place team

Good luck Zeke. Did you take the money line or the runline?

 

[zeketaylor]

heres the difference, in the 8th, with 2 out and no one on, rockies manager pulls a lefty and bring in righty to face the terrible chris young, just to play it by the book




then aj hench leaves his righty in to face giambi with runner on 2nd with 1 out in the 8th....and naturally he singles in what will be the winning run............



they arent even trying to win this game...stupid wager by anyone like me who took the dbax....this manager cost them last 3 runs.......he isnt even playing the same game rockies manager is

Good luck Zeke. Did you take the money line or the runline?

I have parlay but not much faith in it so I went at the minimum of $5. Looks like A's will fuck it up for me.

im just pissed, becs my payout would be basically the same if i took rockies.......however, i cant see how anyone could back them in this situation aside from the fact that they needed the game.

 

[zeketaylor]

they fucking laid down for them......flat out laid down for them.......game was all but over , and haren had settled down....then hench single handedly lost it for his team
