GDT 9/20/13: Braves (Maholm) @ Cubs (Baker) 2:20 PM - HEYWARD BACK!!!

Gregg showing this inning why I didn't want him on the Braves. The way Fredi uses relievers he'd been costing us a lot of games. Plus Fredi loves him going back to his Miami days. We all know Fredi isn't good with players he's close with (Uggla namely).
 
I'd blame him on Venters in the first year.

EOF has pitched no more than any big name RP has.

Avilan has pitched too much though, I'd rest him for a week.

Outside of that, none of the others like Martinez, Gearrin are on him. CMart rarely pitched a lot, or a ton but not surprising the Fredi haters like 1976, emk, and others blame him for that. It's what they do, so it doesn't surprise me.

Serious question, is all you do bash Fredi?

Outside of Avilan and Kimbrel, none of our relievers have pitched that much.

They are the only two in the top 40 in games pitched for relievers.

This game is over, too bad Kimbrel already warmed up. Nice one Simmons!

This is also something you don't understand.

Sometimes Fredi has relievers warmed up but we add 2-4 runs that inning and you bitch about it.

Thank you Wren for not picking up Gregg. Thank you Sveum for bringing him in.

Yea, Fredi wanted him but thankfully no trade could be worked out. We also needed a lefty more at time so that was Wren's main focus. I guess along with adding a back-up infielder which didn't happen before deadline.

I wasn't "bitching" I was simply noting. Nor did I even mention Fredi in that statement. It seems sometimes you're just looking to nitpick about what others say about Fredi (or in this case just a statement you made into such) just to pat yourself on the back about defending the manager.

Not defending him but I'm also not blaming Fredi for everything after we lose or something goes wrong during a LONG season.
