So much for that...

The guy was great in the season, sometimes simply dominant, then you ditch him for Pedro talk about damaging a rookies confidence. I mean im all for Pedro getting some starts, but why all the sudden did they not like Happ as a starter?

Well I can't say Pedro has a "history" of needing 10 days rest. I do agree that Happ should have started and Lee should have gone 3 games. I'm just saying it's easy to think about these things AFTER they lose.

He knew it didn't matter who he threw out there, except for Lee, who was to pussy to pitch on 3 days rest....???????????

Legend Joined: Mar 2006 Posts: 33182 Location: New York	#9 Posted: 11/5/2009 11:09:13 PM Charlie Manuel Managed This World Series Very...VERY Poorly. Happ should have been a starter and should have started in Game 2. (I said that from the start). If you would like to think in hindsight, then obviously Hamels wouldn't be in the rotation but I had him in there over Blanton. Finally...Lee should have pitched Games 1, 4 and 7. He got too confident for no reason and blew any chance he may have had to win this thing.

I wouldn't say girardi is a smart manager per say.. after all he sat the world series MVP 3 GAMES in philly when he easily couldve played right field.. LOL!! but as a phillies fan i am surprised that pedro got 2 games and blanton got one as well.. i stand by the rotation i posted.
