You missed my comment, which is that Hyde  has a plan. He knows who he is going to bring in when the starter is done. It’s either going to be X or Y depending on what part of the order is coming up.

You are suggesting he has no plan. Of course he has a plan. I’m saying he waits too long to implement it. He always leaves his starter in too long and if you don’t think that’s true go back and look at the starting logs. I have done so. He always leaves his starter in too long and he did so tonight as well. We may think our stars that Scott managed to put out the fire.

I am not saying he has no plan.  I am saying YOU have no plan.  You say he makes a mistake leaving a pitcher in without saying who you would have brought in.  Constantly.  And if the pitcher allows a run you feel like that is proof you were right, even though it is possible that the reliever would have allowed as many or more.  You have no concern about burning out the bullpen.

Bullshit.  Managing isn't just taking guys out, it's having a plan to finish the game.  You constantly criticize Hyde's management, dozens and dozens of times, and I can only remember ONE time you act

Is this the written equivalent of puffing out your chest?

Well I attempted to delete that comment immediately after posting it. I’m sorry I was unsuccessful.

but I stand by what I say every time Hyde does this and I have neither need nor interest in restating it.

Hyde leaves his starters in too long. Sometimes it works out ok. Most of the time it doesn’t.

Why aren't guys trained to drop or trap balls like one Correa just caught for an easy double play?

Stuff can go wrong.  It can get away from you.  Such a split second decision.

 Now a routine pop that is too deep to be an infield fly, or with just a man on first.  That seems like something we should see so more often than we do.

Bro, I just laid it out for you.  

The bullpen is taxed.  Your answer is that he leaves the starters in for too long and that would...tax the bullpen even more.

Haha I’m just having a go at you. I don’t care. 
 

He leaves his starters in too long, no doubt. But he has 5 innings to cover for a win. You have to squeeze a few extra outs from your SP with a tired bullpen. It’s not like he has a lot of reliable arms out there.

And we brought up a couple AAA arms to eat innings if Harvey got pounded.  We don't really want to use those guys in a close game trying to protect a lead.  So if you assume those guys will only pitch if we are losing it maybe if it goes extras, we are going to have to stretch out Scott, Harvey, Wells even more to get through 9.  Or use Fry and/or Sulser after they threw 30+ pitches Monday

I agree fast guy on first, easy IF pop up anywhere near 2B by a slow guy should always be dropped for the easy force play

      Is Matt Wieters >Adley?

      If he has been injured all this time, why are they still letting him play? After a month of poor performance with an injury, they should have sat him. EDIT - Screw a month, 2 weeks.

      And McCann is our worst RHB facing a dominant lefty with reverse splits. You have to think a K is a high likelihood.  And then to send him up there with Ramon on 3rd, you have to expect the same outcome.

      I don't like hearing that a catcher has a back issue -no matter how big or how small it is- at age 26.

      Brandon Hyde 2024

      By survivedc · Posted

      IMO he made two decisions that were clearly wrong, pitching to Witt and not PR Holliday, to go along with a couple others I didn’t agree with but are certainly debatable. There is no doubt that the game was lost because the bats couldn’t push a run across, but everyone has a job to do, and like the batters, Hyde didn’t do his.

      I use the StatCast search function. It’s a little more complicated for chase rate, ground ball rate, popup rate, and sweet spot rate because you need to adjust selected pitch attributes/outcomes as well as total pitch definition and then use % of pitches. I believe popups are categorized by stringers and generally capture balls that an infielder could catch.  I believe Adley’s fly balls have gotten can of cornier even without the popups.

      ...or simply choose not to even attempt to play situational baseball.  As I posted in another thread, 0-0 game both teams aces are dealing.  Ced leads off the inning with a double.  Your #9 hitter (McCann) is coming to the plate with your two best hitters (Gunnar and Westburg) to follow. Instead of bunting Ced to 3rd and almost assuring yourself a 1-0 lead which firmly puts the pressure on KC, Hyde chooses to let McCann swing away.  He feebly strikes out, Gunnar grounds out (there was your run), and Westburg flies out.  0 runs, 1 hit, 0 errors. 1 left on....

      Adley - Is it an injury? Is it a woman? Is it the "process?" Is it just who he is at his age? What Is It? And no, I'm not doing a pole. Wait till 2025 for the answer - I think. Till then - speculate. This off season goin be fun on here. This thread kinda makes me miss Rick Dempsey and I have absolutely no idea why. 😄 Oh yea, he was our last WSMVP.
