Lack of "playoff experience" on their part.

Character on The Office, and one who I get annoyed with regularly. After the first few seasons, he has served no purpose on the show. But I don't want to hijack the thread so I won't go any further, LOL.

We really need Votto to come through next inning.

This is a little on the side of excruciating.

If I'm Hamels though, I don't throw Votto a decent pitch to hit at all...not with Rolenkkkkkk and Gomes behind him.

Yet Janish should have been starting all along, because many on a bulletin board think that he should have been.

Hmmm.
So a person should never disagree with a successful leader of any kind? They are always correct. Reds management? Always right. George Steinbrenner? Never once wrong. Bob Knight? Never a mistake. Don't you even dare question him or he'll show you what happens to a mouthy "bulletin board" punk.

I loathe Charlie Manuel. Just saying.

That walk is on you of course.

People have questioned him every day since he got here. Tons of questions and he's answered the vast majority successfully.

Maybe Janish would have turned into Hanley if given the job. Possible, I guess. But to say that there was evidence of some sort of a conclusion is pretty aggressive.

True, but he's made mistakes too. Taveras was a big one.

I don't think you need to be Hanley Ramirez to be more valuable than Orlando Cabrera.

missed a possible DP there. Phillips' throw pulls Joey off the bag. Would've been a fantastic one though.
