One week, one blown game directly on the shoulders of Joe "clueless moves" Torre.



Right on pace with last season.

Not a Torre fan after what he did in Atlanta.



I missed the game, KJ. What did old Joe do this time?

Troncoso pitched a perfect 8th and looked good then gave up a hit to open the 9th. I would've kept Trono in there. Instead he sends in Sherrill who hasnt been able to find the plate or miss any bats all spring or in his previous 2 outings.



Sherrill predictably is wild and gets hammered when he throws it over the plate. Torre never warms anyone else up, even after loading the bases with a HPB and a BB, then loading them again after he allowed the tying runs score.



It was as close to a lay-down as I've seen since the Colts pulled their starters in the 3rd quarter with a perfect season on the line. So bad, that if I were commishioner I'd be checking the Torre family for Marlin betting tickets.

In the pressbox at the game we kept looking at the bullpen going nope nobody up yet.

I think this thread could remain active all year.



Why do Manny Ramirez and Casey Blake need 2 days off the first week? Why would you remove both these guys again today when one of your top sluggers, Ethier, is out?
