I don't want to hear any "put it in the redsox forum" junk. All major league NE sports fans have a haert felt interest in the Red Sox team that Tito regularly disrupts. Francoma makes me sick with his X's and O's moves. Too late pulling a starter, too late/too early with a defensive replacement, pinch hitting for the wrong guys at the wrong time, calling for pitch outs when everyone this side of Neptune knows they are coming, being tardy with having someone up in the pen, etc., etc., etc.......
Tonight- His team is loose and rolling. manny has jacked two and the team acn really feel the juice on the road - we're putting down one of the supposed threats to our season. Beckett has thrown around 80 pitches and has kept the Jays to two runs by pitching through 7 innings again ( what a great start to a LONG season) - a perfect chance to reinforce the kid's confidence and put down the pesky Jays. But NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
Tito the Moron, just has to let Beckett go back out for the 8th - he's a player's manager after all. But a hit batsmen and a home run isn't enough to convince Tito the Brainless that he should yank the kid who has clearly lost his focus. Nope, another homerun to Vernon Wells, who already had a jack against Beckett tonight, was needed to convince the The Moron that Beckett was done.
Instead of bringing in Foulke to start the 8th, and having Timlin ready to go in case of a minor problem. Francoma now has to call upon Timlin with a tiny lead - and NO pitcher feels better with a one run lead when he could have started with a 4 RUN LEAD. I'd say it's obvious that Francoma understands these basic tenets, but we know he does not.
So, instead of having Pap flamethrow the Jays for the save in the 9th, Pap is wasted protecting a tie. did anyone really doubt the Jays were bound to win after they oevercame such a dominant pitching performance that Beckett gave for 7 innings. The Jays were reeling - Burnett was gone with an injury, the Sox had launched 4 homers and the Jay's were facing a Sox bullpen which hadn't blown a save yet. Add in the fact that Tito the Moron had a team that was cruising and loosey goosey, ready to really put it's foot down on the AL East, and all he needed to do was follow the plan. but no, he knew better. which really means he knew NOTHING. He's an idiot.........
