ieatcrayonz Posted October 7, 2011 Posted October 7, 2011 (edited) Do any of you seriously think that a baseball guru like LaRussa would have lost with the Yankees against the Tigers? The answer is no and all you Yankee suck ups can say anything you want. Let's just say it came down to game 5. How would LaRussa have done it differently? First of all Posada had a good series, he really did. He had a good career too and I can really see why he was a popular player in NY. Anyway all of that is sentimental. He should not have been playing in this series Even though he hit. That was just a lucky break for the inferior Girardi. And seriously, how many times do you have to watch A-Rod get overmatched before you do something? 100? Geez. The Yankees plainly needed to get multiple ABs to Montero last night. If they did they would have won. If LaRussa was managing Montero would have gotten the ABs. IF nothing else he should have pinch hit for A-Rod in the 9th. If he did it in the 7th A-Rod would have been pouting but he would have been pouting in the ALCS instead of Madonna's bedroom. You Yankee fans can have your huge payroll half filled with crappy players and no ability to get the most out of starters 2-5. I'll take Tony and his ability to get wins out of guys like Kyle Lohse and Edwin Jackson. And if you want to argue just look at the fact that the Cardinals lasted longer than the Yankees this year and then compare the rosters. How about trading us Montero for tonight?

Mike In Illinois Posted October 8, 2011 Posted October 8, 2011 I just bought a ticket to Game Five of the NLCS. Brewers-Cardinals is gonna be a fun series I think. These teams are not fond of each other, so someone is going to be torqued that they lost to the other team for a right to the World Series.
