braves/cardinals career splits

As nice as stats are, the Postseason tends to have a way of changing things.


Also, can we make a bracket for the Playoffs in the same way NHL-GAF did?

 

[Fenix]

Word. We are kindred spirits.

Enjoy your lockout, suckers

[Judderman]

So Bobby V is out.

 

[LiK]

So Bobby V is out.

yup, totally expected

 

[Sanjuro]

Fuck it.

 

[CygnusXS]

So Bobby V is out.

Shocking, to say the least.

 

[McNei1y]

Fuck it.

Hire Ozzie

 

[The Frankman]

Mike Trout, ladies and germs.

Torii Hunter may want to watch out. His wife seems to like guys in diapers.

 

[Malo]

So Bobby V is out.

 

[yankeehater]

So Bobby V is out.

I still cant believe he blamed the coaches. I guess he knows he will never manage again.

 

[Meier]

So Bobby V is out.

I don't think there was anyone who thought his hiring was a good idea at all so this result is entirely expected.

 

[yankeehater]

I don't think there was anyone who thought his hiring was a good idea at all so this result is entirely expected.

Meier meet Sanjuro Tsubaki.

They weren't his coaches. Hell, I'd blame them.

 

[yankeehater]

They weren't his coaches. Hell, I'd blame them.

I get that but no manager/head coach ever blames his staff. He sounded paranoid and crazy on Mike and Mike.

 

[jbug617]

So you think Toronto will ask for Bucholz again for Farrell?

 

[The Frankman]

I get that but no manager/head coach ever blames his staff. He sounded paranoid and crazy on Mike and Mike.

Yes they do, especially if they weren't their guys.

 

[Sanjuro]

Curt Schilling, is that you?

 

[Macattk15]

FELIX IS OURS AND YOU CAN'T HAVE HIM.

Figgins wants out of Seattle though.

"I can't take two more years of this."

Hahahaha. It's your own fucking fault you shithead. Go kill yourself Chone. No one wants you.

Clown won't opt out of his $8 million dollar payday though.

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

Serves him right by ruining the integrity of the game by tankng the last three against the yanks.

 

[Kccitystar]

So for the off-season we have what, three teams looking for new managers?

Cleveland, Houston and now the Red Sox?

 

[Sanjuro]

So you think Toronto will ask for Bucholz again for Farrell?

Probably not. They asked for Bard in the recent talks. At this point though, I'm not sure why Toronto would stand in the way. They are dealing with their own cancers.

The candidate list should look like,

1. Wally Backman
2. Jason Varitek
3. John Farrell

 

[Brashnir]

So for the off-season we have what, three teams looking for new managers?

Cleveland, Houston and now the Red Sox?

Houston already hired Bo Porter.

 

[Sanjuro]

So for the off-season we have what, three teams looking for new managers?

Cleveland, Houston and now the Red Sox?

Texas might be on that list soon.

 

[Link]

Possibly Miami too.

 

[Talon]

Oh shit, the game starts at 5!

BUD SELIG IS REDEEMED

Wait, fuck, can we not stream this within the states? I'll be on the road.

 

[Sanjuro]

 

[jbug617]

Texas might be on that list soon.

Angels might be since Francona is sort of campaigning for the job.

 

[yankeehater]

Yes they do, especially if they weren't their guys.

I am having a hard time thinking of a case where a manager came out publicly and blamed the teams problems on his assistants. I am somebody ha at some point but at least we can agree it is not the norm, right?

Curt Schilling, is that you?

I wish.

 

[Sanjuro]

The entire Bobby Valentine saga wasn't the norm either.

 

[jman2050]

I wish.

Really now? Cause I certainly wouldn't want to be in Curt Schilling's shoes right now for a number of reasons.

 

[vas_a_morir]

I wish.

Oh, let's just say knowing what I've heard about his finances and legal situation, I'd imagine he'd take you up on that trade.

 

[Sanjuro]

Really now? Cause I certainly wouldn't want to be in Curt Schilling's shoes right now for a number of reasons.

He is selling his ketchup socks as we speak. Although, I would still rather be Schilling over the state of Rhode Island.

 

[rekameohs]

Oh, let's just say knowing what I've heard about his finances and legal situation, I'd imagine he'd take you up on that trade.

Curt Schilling could get millions from endorsements of products in Boston. He's still like a god there.

Though he'd probably spend it all on some shitty hobby again.

He's got an eye on this sweet model train set.

We didn't buy that silly video game he was hawking over here.

Actually, I'm not even sure what he could sell over here anymore. Maybe the creepy Sullivan Tire adverts.

 

[Tobor]

At the very least, he gets an MLB pension. And you know ESPN will hire him as an analyst.

He won't have the $100 million back, but he'll be fine.

 

[alstein]

I don't see how Posey does not win Comeback Player of the Year.

He deserves MVP, and Medlen deserves Comeback player.

Looks like McCann is out for tomorrow, and Ross is starting.

 

[hemtae]

Probably not. They asked for Bard in the recent talks. At this point though, I'm not sure why Toronto would stand in the way. They are dealing with their own cancers.

Weren't they looking at Brad Mills last off season? I really hope they don't try again.

Heinz could use a spokesperson

 

[yankeehater]

Curt is the man in Boston for ever. Even with his financial problems I bet it would be easy to turn things around for him. My life on the other hand is what it is. I enjoy it very much for the most part but I wouldnt mind being rich and I think Curt will rebound big time from all this.

 

[CygnusXS]

Looks like McCann is out for tomorrow, and Ross is starting.

Good.

 

[Corran Horn]

Avatar bet? Sure, bet? I suggest a two week bet. I'd go longer, but football season is upon us, and I got some good ideas for Bengals avatars. lol

Deal.

I hope buster flames out and gives back the ROY award that he stole.

go away corran.

Lol. Still salty. Posey was better even when busted.

 

[DUFFMCWALIN]

I hope buster flames out and gives back the ROY award that he stole.

go away corran.

Jesus Christ lol.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

He deserves MVP, and Medlen deserves Comeback player.

Source?

 

[Sanjuro]

Curt calling into the local station today, oh boy. Guy loves the attention.

 

[Kuroyume]

Bobby was stupid for taking the job. After last year's collapse? That was just a poisonous situation. Between such a horrible team and media attention. He was asking for it. Damn shame the idiots in LA bailed out Boston. They could have been somewhat screwed for a few more years.

 

[talisayNon]

FELIX IS OURS AND YOU CAN'T HAVE HIM.

Ollie Perez for Matt Harvey final offer

Not buying it. He was incredibly smart to take the job. He had no other entry back into managing in the big leagues and took the opportunity while other candidates backed away.

Red Sox fans who are quick to bash him have no idea how much he helped the structure of this team going into 2013. Assume Francoma stayed on for 2012, guarantee you we are heading back into 2013 with the same terrible team who would obviously win more games, but not compete.
