re: stop blaming CPM for the 2-2 Pitch out that was Dunn's call

It was an incredibly stupid decision.

Could someone describe the situation. I missed it

Really fast runner on 1st base no outs. Threw back over a number of times to keep him close. Pitched out on consecutive pitches with a 1-1 count. Runner didn't bite and the batter eventually walked.

I see. Don't see what's wrong with that but I'm not a baseball expert. I'm also not a fan of sac bunts but everyone is doing it these days so what do I know.

The pitch out on 2-2 was the problem.

Was it on the 2-2 that bothers you or that they did it consecutively?

It's clearly Dunn's fault. Nothing to do with youth at the position.
Glenn, boumon all pretty inconsistent... all upperclassmen. what's funny about what you're saying is the actual "youth" in our bullpen are the consistent pitchers.

The combination is the problem. But it stings that they were wrong both times. Obviously you don't want the runner to get to second. But almost as important is not letting the count get to 3-2 in that situation. That's a big no no

Person couldn't hit the strike zone per usual last night. Broussard was an anomaly. I won't blame McCune too much for today. He saved us last night.

Both but if I had to pick then it's definitely the fact that it pushed McCune to a full count on a friggin no out pitchout.

Here's why it's a bonehead call:
If the runner doesn't go, which he didn't, then he is definitely going to be off on the pitch in a 3-2 count. That means you have just taken yourself out of the DP and a ball in the gap or down the line for sure scores the run. You want to avoid going 3-2 at all costs there.

I like how you people are pointing out one pitcher out of the 6 I said. Yes Broussard is good. He has been iffy lately. He is light years better than the others on that list.
Posted on 5/3/14 at 4:02 pm to Macintosh
You're the one that posted it not me. The kid had a 0.36 ERA before last night. Aside from last night tell me what game he has been iffy in.

Clearly, Dunn calls the pitchouts that work and Mainieri calls the ones that don't work.
Posted on 5/3/14 at 4:04 pm to fbb
Shut up. It was stupid and it didn't work.
Posted on 5/3/14 at 4:05 pm to TigerCub
Fair enough, I mistakenly put him on that list when he shouldnt have been, but still that Mikey whatever his name is saying youth as being the issue as to why our bullpen is struggling is completely wrong.
Posted on 5/3/14 at 4:06 pm to UpToPar
I guess what I am saying is in a theoretical situation where you did not already attempt a pitchout (therefore runner is not looking for it) would attempting on 2-2 be a bad call? It's like reverse psychology since the other team wouldn't be expecting it.
Maybe over thinking it.

I didn't get to watch the game. Can someone explain to me the situation where the pitch ours occurred (score, inning, outs, runners position etc.)
