so he gets the credit when this same team was in 1st place, but in your eyes not at fault for whats happening now....... lol , how many fookn times have u seen a coach say they are the boss ,they are responsible for everything that goes on on the field, its on me???? real coaches take on the responsiblity, have u ever heard blinky say this or is it, u know guys have bad days, we can't win them all, teams go through this, hemmeroids raging, sore throats, dog ate my stat sheets......
PSST! Hey Pasta, about the EXACT job & function of a hitting coach & a batting coach. We're all still waiting. You conveintlly seem to keep jumping over it. Not very nice Mr. Baseball. Please share your wisdom. Again...................I'll wait.
Pasta, what would you have done differently given the issues that Girardi has had to face this year. What would you have done with 1 for 37 Ben Francisco, and the following cast of characters. The red signifies that they were either DFA's or just plain stunk. The Blue were injured. OK Pasta Torre, you are the manager, so if you are doing this sarcastically for a rise, fine. But if you are serious, consult a physician immediately... 39, 45 David Adams 6-01 205 Right Right 1987-05-15 34 Chris Bootcheck 6-05 200 Right Right 1978-10-24 62 Joba Chamberlain 6-02 250 Right Right 1985-09-23 38 Preston Claiborne 6-02 225 Right Right 1988-01-21 38 Cody Eppley 6-05 205 Right Right 1985-10-08 61 David Huff 6-02 215 Left Left 1984-08-22 65 Phil Hughes 6-05 240 Right Right 1986-06-24 27 Shawn Kelley 6-02 220 Right Right 1984-04-26 18 Hiroki Kuroda 6-01 205 Right Right 1975-02-10 48 Boone Logan 6-05 215 Left Right 1984-08-13 70 Brett Marshall 6-01 195 Right Right 1990-03-22 47 Ivan Nova 6-04 225 Right Right 1987-01-12 34 Vidal Nuno 5-11 195 Left Left 1987-07-26 46 Andy Pettitte 6-05 225 Left Left 1972-06-15 41 David Phelps 6-02 200 Right Right 1986-10-09 42 Mariano Rivera 6-02 195 Right Right 1969-11-29 30 David Robertson 5-11 195 Right Right 1985-04-09 52 CC Sabathia 6-07 290 Left Left 1980-07-21 43 Adam Warren 6-02 200 Right Right 1987-08-25 # Catchers Height Weight Throws Bats Date Of Birth 29 Francisco Cervelli 6-01 205 Right Right 1986-03-06 53 Austin Romine 6-00 215 Right Right 1988-11-22 19 Chris Stewart 6-04 210 Right Right 1982-02-19 # Infielders Height Weight Throws Bats Date Of Birth 40 Reid Brignac 6-03 190 Right Left 1986-01-16 24 Robinson Cano 6-00 210 Right Left 1982-10-22 61 Luis Cruz 6-02 210 Right Right 1984-02-10 40 Alberto Gonzalez 5-10 195 Right Right 1983-04-18 22 Travis Ishikawa 6-03 220 Left Left 1983-09-24 2 Derek Jeter 6-03 195 Right Right 1974-06-26 61 Corban Joseph 6-00 180 Right Left 1988-10-28 39 Brent Lillibridge 5-11 185 Right Right 1983-09-18 39 Chris Nelson 5-11 205 Right Right 1985-09-03 [COLOR="deepskyblue"]17 Jayson Nix 5-11 195 Right Right 1982-08-26 26 Eduardo Nunez 6-00 185 Right Right 1987-06-15[/COLOR] 55 Lyle Overbay 6-02 235 Left Left 1977-01-28 13 Alex Rodriguez 6-03 225 Right Right 1975-07-27 25 Mark Teixeira 6-03 215 Right Both 1980-04-11 36 Kevin Youkilis 6-01 220 Right Right 1979-03-15 # Outfielders Height Weight Throws Bats Date Of Birth 45 Zoilo Almonte 6-00 205 Right Both 1989-06-10 22 Brennan Boesch 6-04 235 Left Left 1985-04-12 45 Ben Francisco 6-01 195 Right Right 1981-10-23 11 Brett Gardner 5-10 185 Left Left 1983-08-24 14 Curtis Granderson 6-01 195 Right Left 1981-03-16 60 Melky Mesa 6-01 190 Right Right 1987-01-31 22 Thomas Neal 6-02 220 Right Right 1987-08-17 12 Alfonso Soriano 6-01 195 Right Right 1976-01-07 31 Ichiro Suzuki 5-11 170 Right Left 1973-10-22 12, 22 Vernon Wells 6-01 230 Right Right 1978-12-08 # Other Positions Height Weight Throws Bats Date Of Birth 33 Travis Hafner 6-03 240 Right Left 1977-06-03
C'mon Major, the guy is having a tough enough time just trying to come up with an explanation on what EXACTLY a pitching & hitting coach do, you really think he can LOGICALLY answer your post? I think with Pasta you've got to keep the questions simple like......"How can a batter officially be credited with an RBI when officially he doesn't have an at bat?"
Hey Pasta listen I understand my question was a little to tough for you to answer. But don't take that shit from Major. He's got some pair challenging you like that. Really, don't let him get away with that. Go ahead let him know what you would have done differently if you were the manager. He has no idea who he's dealing with. I mean you being a former major league player he's got some nerve. Go on Pasta, you tell him. And again.......................I'll wait.
