Whatever they do they should keep in mind the Curse of GreenWeeie when they trade him.

I'm a Pirates fan.  Nothing will be right in my world until the Pirates win the World Series.


I then suggest that you consider moving to another planet!

Silly to have pitchers trying to hit . All that strategy BS is old thinking.




Great "strategy" today! "Walk the guy.  The pitcher's up next."  We see this ten times for every reason to even think about pulling a pitcher for a PH.



NL pitchers should man up, grow a set of nuts, and face 9 guys who can do some damage.  Walk a guy in the AL, and there's a price to pay for it.






Exactly, the NL is predictable baseball with no strategy.

Right, because every single situation is exactly the same. Like the score, the inning, the number of outs, the men on base, who's available in the bullpen, how the opposing pitcher is pitching, who's available in the opposing bullpen, what pinch hitters are available, among other things.

It is very easy to predict what NL managers will do. Does not matter what variables you pick.

Too bad we aren't allowed to give awards like we did on the old board. You'd easily be frontrunner for ROY!

Really? Is that why there are many, many games each season where managers are second-guessed over the decisions they've made regarding hitting or not hitting for the pitcher?

Doesn't make them any less predictable.  Managers get second- guessed regardless of what they do- usually after a loss.

 

That's another thing that's predictable.  ;)
