    Bruce bochy lmao. Yeah right. Maybe #11 not #1. Some homer shit if I've ever seen it.

    Just last night he brings in vin mazzaro instead of Law. I texted my friend and said here comes 10-3 with mazzaro in there.

    It's not like they weren't getting hits on offense. They could of came back from down 3 or 4. But mazzaro ended up allowing 13 runs in that inning. Some earned some unearned. And then Bochy brings in Law.

    San Francisco management is awful and those who don't know it yet will learn the hard way like I did.

    Let's see, he loses a meaningless game in May that you had $10 on, compared to his three rings. Hmmm... you make a compelling point.

    Comical. If Bochy is not number 1 on your list then your list is irrelevant.

    I win, Rudy.

    I always win.

    Winners make lists.

    Have you ever met JJ gold? He's known for making list, makes one every month. Next you're going to tell me he's not a winner. That would be outrageous!

    Never understood why the Red Sox canned him. He's probably glad they did. He might not belong on the list (Terry), but I will tell you Farrell is not long for this world (Boston).

    Ummm....this is all part of my act. I'm an insufferable homer, so I call out other homers while acting oblivious to my own shortcomings.

    $10? Nice terrible joke.


    Your boy Bochy is a fraud of a manager.


    Seriously I could manage the penetrating Giants. They have had successful starting pitcher after successful starting pitcher.

    What do you need to manage in baseball when you have a horse on the mound striking everyone out?


    You don't need to manage your bullpen. Your lineup card is already set. You are just a fan at that time.

    But that is beside the point..... you bring in Vin Mazzaro, possibly the worst pitcher the league has seen in 10 years. I can't believe this guy got another shot with another team. He was a dead beat with Oakland. Good for a 5 run inning at any time... Bochy chose him over Law in a 3 run game. That tells me everything I need to know about beach bum Bochy.

    When your ace is striking everyone out. What do you need to do in baseball? Seriously. What a pinch hitter or a pinch runner? Come on anyone can do that shit.

    Come on man act real. Not like a homo homer

    This is your list. These are the men you want in your corner when wagering on a big game.

    Big game? Why


    why not just any game? The best managers in baseball and what makes it difficult is managing a team for days to come. Not just one big game but that entire week to make sure guys are rested and so on.

    So when the game is close why bring in a bum to make it not close? And then bring in one of your best relievers? Why not bring in your best reliever. Get out of the jam and help your starting pitcher not get any earned runs and then see if you can make the game close( which they scored 7 off of Colorado's starting pitcher which would of been enough)

    Careless move. You have to think. Vin Mazzaro should of came in with no one on base in a blowout. That's when you bring him in. No other reason to, ever. Think.
