Wow. Just a horrible call. Horrible.
Cuzzi just lives to **** this team over. I've never seen anything like this. Worse than Joey Crawford v. Spurs.

If I had a gun with one bullet and Cuzzi was in a locked room I'd take the damned bullet out and pistol whip him to death

We just haven't looked good for the last 3 games. Seems like they are lethargic or have a hangover from the Reds series.

I'll give you the hangover for the Dillon Gee game, but they just faced Matt Harvey and Fernandez. Those guys are really damned good. Maybe they are hungover, but good pitchers who are on can carve up any lineup. You also have to consider that Miller, Wacha, Lyons, Martinez, et. al. aren't used to throwing 200 innings. Hell, they'll cap Wacha somewhere around 150. Although Westbrook is nowhere near our most talented pitcher, we desperately need those innings

Also, why are they stretching Martinez out? Are they intending to bring him up soon?

He's worth a hell of a lot more as a starter than a reliever. Have him learn how to start in the minors. When rosters expand we can call him up and have another power arm out of the pen, then give him a legit shot to earn a spot in the rotation in ST next year.

Wacha, Lyons, Miller all have hard or soft innings limits on them. Don't know or at least they haven't announced how they are going to handle the issue. I hope they just don;t shut them down at the end of the year ala Strausberg.

I'm sure they're planning to do the same with Wacha, which begs the question, who loses a spot in the rotation next year?
Wainwright, Miller, and Lynn are probably locks at this point. Do you not bring Westbrook back and go with Wacha and Martinez? Like to have a lefty in there, where does Garcia fit? They have talked about stretching Kelly and Rosenthal out as well, where do they fit? I'm wondering if they're thinking about moving one of the pitchers for something. |

Runner then scores on the Stanon double that provides the margin of victory. In the 9th Adams is up with a 2-2 count. Cishek throws a pitch low and away that was a ball all night. Cuzzi rings him up. We be fukt.

Wacha got sent back down today, If I read that correctly.
I don't imagine we'll see him back until September, same with Martinez. |

Well, it was Cuzzi none the less, IIRC, he threw Edmonds out in the 05 NLCS, so we don't exactly jive.

They probably need an innings eater. You can't count on Wacha and Martinez both throwing 200+ so early into their careers. They obviously realize that they have no lefty pitching. That's why they went after Gonzalez w/ their first pick, and they doubled down over the long term w/ Kaminski.

Gonzalez and/or Kaminski won't likely be with the big club by next year, we need a lefty in there somewhere. It wouldn't be a bad idea to have a lefty be your innings eater. |
