    Joe Maddon is a horrible coach
    OK so i got the rays today at +2.5 at five dimes in a parlay.

    Anyways big game James didn't have it today. I knew in the first inning when he walked three.

    Now through for he has given up 8 on five homers.

    Why would Maddon give up on the game add leave Shields out there?

    Makes no sense the Rays need every win they can get right now.

    I know you don't want to waste your bullpen but that's why you got long relievers.

    Dammmmmm

    It makes perfect sense from a baseball standpoint just not from a guy gambling standpoint. There was absolutely no reason to bet Rays +2.5 in this game. If you don't think the Rays are going to win (or cover the -1.5 RL for that matter), then you have picked a bad spot. There were much better plays out there.

      No worries Rays will cover it. Will end up a 1 run game.

        He didnt want to burn up the bullpen. scioscia does this as well always trys to get 5 or 6 innings out of the starter.

          Oh your right thats why I don't bet for action. I just wanted to play something this morning.

          I am not worried about the 2.5. They still might get it.
          Just the move of leaving a starter out there who clearly doesn't have it isn't smart. It also losers moral on a team.

            Give me a break. Maddon and his squad are one of the most tight-nit overachieving teams of all time.

                  Unlucky man the Jays look destined to win today. Impressive stats in your SIG though you should be fine.

                      Weary bullpen, that's why he tried to take Shields deep into the game.

                      He overused it against Minnesota.

                              Maddon tries to kind of reinvent the game in his own way because he thinks that he knows more than the game. bringing in Matt Garza to close a game inbetween starts? jeez, thats something no other manager would do to a young star with huge talent upside
