EDDIE MURRAY gets canned

[SCUDSBROTHER]

They haven't hit very well against good pitching.Lost 6 in a row to Angels and Padres(good pitching teams.)Dodgers won 3 in a row against Mets,but it was mainly with some hot youngsters hitting some bad Mets pitching.I doubt these same guys can hit good pitching.So,this is about Garciaparra having like what? 1 home run? Kent has always been a good hitter with nobody on base,but with men on base........not much nad.Furcal has not hit good pitching.Pierre hasn't been a good signing.Gonzo has been doing well,but pretty much the same situation........can't hit good pitching.So,they realize that they are going nowhere unless they score against good pitching teams. I still say Grady should be gone for letting one pitcher face 9 batters in the bottom of the 9th,and losing the game 6-5(after going to the mound with a 5-1 lead.)Same pitcher has returned to pitch great this week.So,it's simply a case of a guy choking when he allows men on base.Grady doesn't know his pitchers.That Broxton is a choker when it gets tough.Grady was simply wrong a week ago tonite,and he should be gone. That was unfit management on display.So,don't ever tell me this guy is a good manager.A good manager doesn't let one guy face 9 batters when he is choking out there.Let's face it.FATBOY BROXTON is not the guy to clean up his own vomit.So,leaving him in (after he gets into trouble) is borderline retarded.

It's about this team putting skirt on when facing good pitching teams.That's what it is about.One of those losses was last Thursday night.The Dodgers scored enough runs to win(5,) but this idiot leaves a choker in for 9 f'n batters of total ***** pitching. So,all I am saying is if they are gunna hold Murray accountable for Garciaparra,Kent,and Pierre etc.,then why shouldn't the damn manager be held accountable for last Thursday's loss? Because that loss is on him.Anybody knows this Broxton is not much when guys start getting on base.So,that's the manager's loss for just sitting there looking like he got constipation.He should of been canned Friday.That's his pathetic management that lost that game.People want to divert attention away from this guy,and so they get rid of one of his coaches.Garciaparra's been hitting for how long? I don't know why he can't do what he should be doing.F'N MR. Magoo SEEMS TO POP OUT HALF THE DAMN TIME.He is just not seeing the ball well this year.Who knows why Pierre is hitting crappy this year.Kent is being Kent(useless in clutch against any decent pitching.) They want to blame Murray for that? O.K...I really could care less if he is canned or not,but I do know the manager is responsible for them not being the leaders of this division.Hell,add last Thursday's game into the win column,and they are leaders of the division.Then,how many games has this idiot started that gas can Tomko in this year? Dumbo had misfound confidence in that guy.How about we just admit Grady was wrong about Tomko? That's another 3 games they could have won.Then the idiot sits on the bench when Schmidt is getting lit up.God forbide ya take that gas can out too early..right....I mean he'll start throwing 93 anytime now..right Grady.Needs to get his damn ass out there ,and get these gas cans out before they have a 6 run inning.I mean,to say he is slow to take a struggling pitcher out is wrong.He is not just slow about it.He is Grandma-with-cane slow to get guys out of there.That's another 2 games they could of probably won.I'd say they would be leading by 5 games with any kind of real manager.They are mismanaged

See,that's why they never win championships anymore.You're happy with mediocracy.Somebody points out the truth to you,and you get cute and paint them as negative.Any manager that does nothing (until the starting pitcher has given up 6 runs ) is worried too much about hurting feelings.Pitchers go to the mound with three situations possible.1)They are on their game.2)They are not as sharp as they would like,but are able to get people out.3)They have nothing. This manager here waits too long to take action about the 3rd situation.Just seems very willing to get the team buried.He really thinks these guys are gunna start turning it on.They don't.They would if they could,but they can't.He sits there,and gives away games.Sometimes before the team even gets 2 or 3 chances to hit. I will never understand how that guy can be considered fit to manage in the majors.Other teams know if they can figure a guy out,then they are gunna get to hit that ragdoll pretty hard before he has to get off the mound.

When the O'Malleys sold the Dodgers the new owners didn't buy the Tradition with the sale. Dodgers fans have been putting 3 million + in the stadium to watch a .500 team. This is the future .500 and nothing in the farm system.

YO Scuds: I agree with you! So stop with the "happy with mediocrity" crap! And I haven't sad anything negative to you or your posts! And you might want to check around both leagues and look at ALL the mediocrity below .500 who aren't leading their divisions. Maybe that will make you happy.
