He is the worst at holding or sending runners at third. That is all.

I wish he had the same gift of knowing the outcome that the rant has.

Great recruiter. The whole staff is great at it. But sending and holding guys he struggles. He was a pitcher so guess he doesn’t know any better

I wish he would have done a better job. He should have been down the line, he should have let Smith make a turn and read the play,

Instead he was up the line and he had Smith stop when he guessed the second baseman had made the play.

Sorry, his recruiting prowess is over rated.

So who are his good everyday players to date?
Cabrera
Beloso
Possibly Dugas
Possibly Gio
No catchers!!

Pitchers?
A lot of potential for sure, but none of stepped up and become consistent starters. A lot of possibilities, but no elite guys yet.

Now if you want to go strictly by rankings then he’s awesome. But I’m going by what I see on the field.

And I was just complimenting him last night about doing a much better job than last year when he looked like a Dutch windmill out there.

Sorry guys. This is my fault.

There is no evidence of that today.

Nolan “the Windmill” Cain has been a blight at third base for years. He’s cost us numerous games over the years and even a couple of postseason games. In one postseason he ran about a dozen runners to their death at home plate ... I recall one super-regional where he sent two runners in one inning to home when they should’ve held.

He may be a great asset to the team elsewhere, but he’s a liability at third.

Cain got his job because of his wife.

So people now have an “emotional connection” to Nolan. Despite being a complete shite coach

The same great recruiter who’s allowed LSU the #14 team in the country to have 0 available LHP coming out of the bullpen. Cain is a clown
