    Why do managers micro manage?

    Why do managers micro manage?both games today the wrong team won because of the manager throwing the game away


    Never take out a pitcher that's throwing the ball very well despite pitch count especially in the playoffs

    Because having a reason why a bet lost and not being able to blame oneself will increase the chances of a bettor coming back to bet again...and even make the same mistakes.

    Often times it's "If so and so had just done or not done this or that then I would have won."

    This may seem true but this type of thinking leads the bettors to a repeated slaughter. It keeps them blinded from the realities of the markets.

    Has Bochy watched his team play this year? Leave Moore in unless his arm falls off. I agree you should be able to trust your pen to get 3 outs and not give up 3 runs... but this is a team that has shown time and time again within the last couple of months that no lead is safe.

    Wow, can't believe Bochy pulled Law after a dribbler that barely got past his infield. What a dope; Bochy has been bad all year in trying to figure out his bullpen.

    Great analysis of micro managing from the micro rooster.

    Cool story, the market didn't decide either game today though this isn't third division Italian soccer.

    You must win an incredible amount of money betting which team is going to hold on and win and which one is going to come back from 5-2 in the 9th from your markets, respect.

    That was the worst managed inning in the history of baseball. I woulda fired Bochy's dumb ass in the locker room.

    Bochy should be dismissed

    Managers never learn
