Girardi is awful, but this was actually good managing by him.

Jon Abbey would never ever have Cody Ransom on the roster, let alone in a game. But in the situation, it was the right way to go. That spot never even got up again, so really not sure how anyone could argue otherwise.

You'll probably get a day off tomorrow, too. That's one reason to be glad Torre isn't your manager.

I called the wall ball by Dustin in the Sox game thread...you knew it was coming, he's heating back up and hadn't done anything yet in the game.

Except Jeter had 4 hits as the DH, and his numbers against LHP this year are insane (.440/.520/.643/1.163).

Is it cocky if you expect to lose?

I think the Angels have been the best prescription for any angst with the Sox over the past 6 years...they ass-rape the MFY and then bend over to get ass raped by the Sox when it counts the most.

This was my problem. Half-day offs are dumb. They're not really a day off at all. If he needs a day off give him a real one.

OK, that's an argument I can get behind, except that maybe Girardi figured that Weaver would be much tougher overall than Saunders and he wanted his best lineup in tomorrow. I'm just saying once the lineup was set, I think Girardi handled it correctly (as opposed to pulling Melancon too early).

Agreed, the move was exactly correct to do at the time.
Just curious as to why they put themselves into position with no backup SS when you had Ransom in there who you know migh tneed to be PH for. Jeter is a very good hitter...so him getting 4 hits isn't a surprise...but he didn't have to do it while gobbling up a DH spot.
Either way, Girardi's bad moves with the pitching pales in comparison to the lineup stuff.

When you start quoting Annie in your post-game interviews, it might be time to go back to the minors to work on a few things.
