    Sometimes pitchers will yank themselves? Maybe a trade in the works?

    I am sure that he had his reasons.

    I am sure that they are valid.

    Not always good news for the gambler though.

    Bases were loaded top of the 9th and 2 outs in a tie game. Lee was coming up to hit so they pinch hit for him.

    They also pinch ran for Howard. So they took Howard and Lee out, and never scored a run...

    We all question a manager sometimes.

    No offense to zoo and I hope he doesn't come in swinging, but Zoo questions no brainer moves that every manager would make pretty consistently.

    Taking Lee out was without doubt the correct move there....

    Maybe, but if you're wrong you're wrong. This thread is worse than the whining about Verlander being left in for 35 pitches though in the all star game.

    Which is why calling someone a "dumbass" when youre not paying attention to what's going on isn't the brightest idea.
