Martinez hasn't pitched for ~a month - strained neck.... he could be rusty. May be a day for the pens to come in early - both teams. I think we have the advantage there...

True, but why shoot your wad in a 4-0 game in a best-of-5 when you are up 1-0? _________________________ "I would not be at all shocked if Illinois is in the same league as KU in 2 years" - Gutter 3/11/09

JFish26 Max Falkenstien Registered: 03/17/05 Loc: KC, MO	Because now the Phillies are sorta screwed if tomorrow's not postponed. Horrible managing. _________________________ 2013-14 -- One for the other thumb.

and_one Max Falkenstien Registered: 06/19/09 Loc: Colorado	don't agree, 2-0 would have been dominate, didn't work out. Rocks lost a starter to a groin pull, iffy starting pitching and iffy early pen - set-up and closer are solid. Not horrible, just playing the game

JFish26 Max Falkenstien Registered: 03/17/05 Loc: KC, MO	Are we even talking about the same thing? It's damn hard to excuse Manuel for using two starting pitchers in short relief yesterday. _________________________ 2013-14 -- One for the other thumb.

and_one Max Falkenstien Registered: 06/19/09 Loc: Colorado	understood - all I'm saying is the Manuel took a chance to go 2-0. Drivers seat. Didn't work out. Best next play is to call TBS & MLB and beg for resched

EastCoastJHawk Max Falkenstien Registered: 03/13/07 Loc: On the sofa	and_one - I could see the case made for that "strategy" due to the Phils bullpen woes and a win giving a guarantee that they would come back to Philadelphia for the deciding game. But IMO, the ONLY way to justify that "strategy" (for lack of a better term IMO - lol) it would have to be a 1-run deficit at the worst but moreso a tie game or a small lead. Not when you are already down 4-0 after 5 innings and at best you have a 33% chance of winning the game. He shot his wad on a game that he was likely to lose anyway and may very well cost the Phils a chance to advance. If they were DOWN 0-1 in the series as opposed to being UP 1-0 then that's another case all-together. _________________________ "I would not be at all shocked if Illinois is in the same league as KU in 2 years" - Gutter 3/11/09

and_one Max Falkenstien Registered: 06/19/09 Loc: Colorado	I agree with both of you, it was a bizarre move. You both know the team better that I, perhaps it was driven by the fact that he has little faith in his bullpen?
