Haha, plus Avilan does have reversed splits this year even though Fredi doesn't seem to know that. Hopefully those reverse splits continues here.

Again, I just don't get that move. We have Lefty on Lefty now but I just don't like the move at all.

Now Perez is charged with both runs could get his first loss thanks to leaving him in injured. I knew that bull**** would happen after they left him in hurt.

As bad as our bullpen has been/is, Fredi's use of them is atrocious.

This is a pretty clear issue I have with Fredi.
You don't let the players--the young ones, particularly--make that call. Does Greg Maddux and his 4 Cy Youngs want to make the call? Different story.
You pull them. They're pissed. You WANT them to be pissed. You want them to want to stay in there.
You pull them and take the heat, then sit them down and say, "son, I respect your will to win and I love your heart. I pulled you because finishing an inning in June isn't worth risking what you are going to mean to this team in the future." Except you're Fredi, so you probably say it in a more convoluted way.
Really, is that so tough?

Well, at least Uribe's homer takes Perez off the hook, though I am still pissed that he was left in and to add insult to injury he got charged two runs. More importantly, I hope he didn't hurt himself further staying in like that.

True, but we shouldn't be surprised since he couldn't even manage great bullpens we had for years. And how many arms has he contributed to breaking for us? I lost count and none better than Venters IMO.
