I'm going on an unnecessary rant, but it pisses me off how Brian *****ed about not playing in the WC game last year, and then goes 0-13 with just one BB and awful defense in the playoff series.
I usually agree with you but Mac is not the scape goat (no matter how he sucked it up) you have a one ruN game going into 6 outs in an elim game. You put kimbrel in no matter what, but for some ****ed up reason, this staff can't see that
Truth, I will never be able to comprehend not having kimbrel out there. It will remain one of the biggest sports mysteries for me for A LOOONG timeRaise your hand if you would be okay with losing if Kimbrel ran out of gas before he got the sixth out.
Now raise your hand if you're okay with losing and Kimbrel not throwing one single solitary pitch.
C'mon frediot
Let's see. Would you rather have David Carpenter face Yaisel Puig, Juan Uribe, and Skip Schumaker, then go to Kimbrel for A.J. Ellis, David Van Slyke, and Carl Crawford...
or...
go with Kimbrel facing Puig, Uribe, and Schumaker, with Carpenter going against Ellis, Van Skyle, and Crawford...
