He made the right decision at the time, I'll let Jim know that people have created time machines for those situations though.
October 19th, 2013 at 11:47 PM ^
Exactly, it's akin to a bad beat in poker. Sometimes the right play still doesn't work.

We have great starting pitching
They better. We need miracle.

How many runs this post-season are on the bull pen vs starters? It's gotta be 5x as high.

I must have missed it when Smyly became Mariano Rivera.

Every other manager would have done the same thing.
October 19th, 2013 at 11:34 PM ^
October 19th, 2013 at 11:36 PM ^
You act as if Smyly is great. He's not. He's been exactly average since the All-Star break.
Leyland made the right move. Avila/Veras made a terrible decision and pitch. You cannot blame Leyland for that.
October 19th, 2013 at 11:42 PM ^
every game is feasible. Smyly, Veras, and Benoit all had solid to good numbers this season, I don't fault Leyland for using any of them.

This is the right thing to bitch about, you can't throw 3 straight curves in the same spot in one AB. Bury it with 2 strikes and maybe you get the swing and miss, but certainly don't hang it up in the zone.
October 19th, 2013 at 11:33 PM ^
I'm pretty sure Leyland already tried this...and it didn't work before. Shocked it didn't work this time

He isn't the one who paid Prince Fielder $220 million or assembled the worst bullpen of all the playoff teams.
Make no mistake this is on Dave Dombroski.

Well, you know the season is over when Phil Coke comes in. 5 runs, 5 hits for Boston. 2 runs, 7 hits for the Tigers. That mis-called 4th ball on Boegarts was costly.
October 19th, 2013 at 11:37 PM ^
Agree. Max may have stayed in and pitched out of it.

Fucking awesome we're probably never gonna see Sherzer and Verlander on the same team again. Too bad the bats couldn't put it away for them time and time again.

Umm... you will next year.

I know some don't want to hear it, but I think Leyland is back if he wants to be.
