I Think It Is Time to Make Changes in Atlanta

You are facing a guy coming into this game with an ERA of 6+, you are facing a guy who behind him has possibly one of the worst bullpens in the history of MLB and this guy through 7 innings has only thrown 79 pitches(approx. 11/inning).

I have always defended Bobby Cox because he has always been one of my favorite managers but watching his teams play under him the past couple of years and yes I know they are not the same teams as he had but to watch these guys at the plate making some of the poorest decisions ever and next day sure enough they are back out there once again I think it may be time for Bobby to go.

There is no excuse today to not and try to work this pitcher, not only to help yourself against him and make him get you out instead of getting yourself out but get his pitch count up and get to work at the horrible Nats bullpen.

Now saying all of this and I don't have a play on this game so me losing a bet has absoloutely nothing to do with this post.
