**** all these made-up bullshit rules

Pitching is the ultimate streaky position ... go with the hot hand unless their is a pitch count problem.

How many games is it going to cost us this year .... 10?

I can think of 2 or 3 already. A 10 game swing might be the difference in us being above .500 this year or maybe even having a chance at the division.
LaRussa did this with the Cards and go ask Cards fans how they feel about LaRussa (oh wait they probably have flip flopped on that too)

the dude did win a TON of games with the Cards and all of their dipshit fans hated the **** out of him for these very same things you want Ned Yost to do

I think the main problem with LaRussa is the problem some of you guys have with Ned...LaRussa was the KING of overmanaging

but at the end of the day, he won...so I guess if he ever managed my team and he got those results I feel like he could do whatever the **** he wants
