If any of you blame Price for this, I'm quitting FlameFans.

Times like this I'm ready to fire Maddon. You put your absolutely worst pitcher in to face Hamilton? That's even more stupid than Price throwing another fastball right down the middle to Napoli! :D

Yeah, its not Prices fault, but the home run was. I knew this team didn't have a prayers anyway. I'm sure they'll win tomorrow. Then lose game 5 at texas. That's how it always works.

The team gives him NO run support. In 13 losses, he got 18 runs. EIGHTEEN! You're at home, in the playoffs, give your boy some run support.

And none of his pitches were anywhere near the middle against Napoli...

Napoli is an amazing hitter. Price did almost everything he could.

Oh, I love these "pitch trackers". You are watching the game right? The ball was a bit high, perhaps even a bit in.

And I know DP gets no run support. I'm not the one who brings up 13 losses. You're the only one who keeps bringing it up my friend :D

Really Joe?
What else should he do?

He's the best manager in the AL, but he's not perfect.

You didn't want Jaso to hit, did you?

Honestly with the bases loaded I would have went with Johnson.

But I agree, anyone but Jaso. Its sad, I thought we really had found a great catcher.

Johnson isn't on the playoff roster.

I thought I saw him on the bench? Oh well. Thanks TTL for making me look stupid when I get all emotionally wound up over a baseball game :lol:

It's cool. And DanJo might be there but he's not eligible for the playoff roster.

Sean was the best hitter we had for that spot. He crapped his pants tho.

And trust me, I'm ticked off. Just not at DP.

I'm ticked at the bats that scored 9 in the first game, and that scored in bunches in September.

And why can't we have robot umpires? There's enough technology out there to call balls and strikes instantly using a computer. Can we please just do that?

Look at how bad the strike zone is. Look at all the pitches DP threw that should have been strikes!

See. This is all on the bats. And BJ on the basepaths.

The umpiring has been so terribly that I can't even bare to watch it anymore.

We'll gladly take Maddon off your hands. We'll give you Crawford back and throw in Lackey for good measure.

You can have Derek Shelton (our hitting coach). We'll give you John Jaso if you keep him.

I truly thought that the Cardinals would do it. They were the only team that really matched up well against the Phillies and could play their style. I predicted all 4 teams that advanced. No big deal haha.

Of course, I didn't mention my picks on here, so I'm sure you all believe lol.
