I'm 63 and can run damn near as fast as Arcia (ok, probably not, but you get the point). He ain't a 2 hole guy. IMO Yeah well every now and then Brian Snitker feels the need to be some managering. Remember when he spent half a season batting Olson 2nd because Freeman had batted 2nd? Or when he batted Riley 2nd in the first playoff game last year? When he tries to do some clever thinking he could actually injure himself. There’s actually a painful number of examples.

Sale is just OK. Nothing special. Has somebody claimed he can’t still pitch? I don’t think anyone has voiced any concerns about him in that regard. Not that I know of... There have been legitimate concerns about how long he can remain healthy. Same with Lopez.. it's just about how he will hold up if asked to give us the number of innings an every 5th day starter gives.

Yeah... he really doesn't even need to try and be clever with this team. He has one job and that is to have the team emotionally and physically peaking in the post season.

I think it's actually a myth of grand proportions that Snitwit is even good at that. I think Ron Washington was the guy that really helped the team chemistry and pushing guys to be their best. Everybody is just happy to have Captain Poopy Pants around because he doesn't ever give anybody a hard time.

Meh... I think there are some things he does well. I do the think the overall team chemistry and all that stuff is actually a combined effort from a good group of guys, and certainly Wash was a big part of it. Snit is a part of it as well.
