that was a horrible swing

[billyhallfan]

what a surprise

[phatmatt1215]

SOAG!!!!!!!

[trwi7]

And Acosta predictably breezes through Miller.

[MoneyballMan]

WOW, isn't Bobby Cox a genius, Ned?

[biedergb]

He's letting Miller bat.http://static.yuku.com//domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/eyes.gif

Damian did have that great game against Houston and Pittsburgh.

 

[TerraceReserved]

Who didn't see a K coming there?

[thablingster]

Damian is the new Bad Chad. lol

[moofnelson]

Letting Miller hit in that situation in inexcusable. Yost automatically thinks that because Miller is a veteran, he's going to get the big hit.

[phatmatt1215]

We have absolutely ATROCIOUS catchers..... (95% of the time, anyway.)

[billyhallfan]

He's letting Miller bat.

 

he's going with the flow of the game, duh!

[brettac1]

Dang me.

[sheethead]

Pinch hit Gross here and put Rivera in to catch....PLEASE do something creative Ned

 

I like this thinking, but why would Ned start now? Oh yeah, because the season and his job depends on it. Well another Miller strikeout was predictable, and so is Ned.

[biedergb]

He didn't have too many options there, he wants to save the pinch hitter for extra innings.

Miller is about 2 weeks from retiring but Yost still loves him. Go figure.

[TerraceReserved]

EqA's for our two catchers: Estrada: .241 Miller: .223

 

Ugh.

[billyhallfan]

there won't be any extras if they can't score...so your theory is to save everyone and not give your best option to get a hit because they might need them in extras? This isn't june, and they aren't at home, i don't get your point.

[Mass Haas]

Can we look forward to Bob Wickman later -- oh, wait...

[Brewcrewin07]

We fans have waited 25 looooong years to see the Brewers play in the post season, and Ned ruined our chance of that happening last night. Thanks Ned!!! If anyone couldn't see the collective winds leaving this teams sails after last night, then you are blind. I told my wife as soon as Matt Wise came in that this ball game is over and so is their season.

I think he was being sarcastic.

[trwi7]

Can anybody make a photo of "Managing for Dummies written by a dummy" with a picture of Ned Yost on it?

[billyhallfan]

the season isn't over they will only be 1.5 back.

 

that being said i am going to stop posting for the remainder of the game to try and get some luck our way, i assume that no one will be with me, but unless yost makes a horrible decision, and i have to vent about it, this is my last post in this thread until it's over, come on crew...

[SeriesFinale]

What do you bet Sup bats here and then doesn't come out for the 7th (assuming the Crew doesn't take the lead)

Well, that seems to make sense (at least to Ned)
