Is Cabrera a mental midget?

I understand the error was horrible... but you can't go on to walk the next three hitters (yes the first was intentional, but the next two are inexcusable).

Kensing... are you freaking kidding?

Logan Kensing might be the only guy who could warm up who'd make me want to leave Cabrera in.

Manny's the only person on the planet who couldn't see Cabrera was done two batters before. But all the runs are unearned now, so he doesn't care.

Kensing is up in the 'pen. I feel SO much better now... ACK!

yep. he is going to blame Cabrera's struggles on Willingham in the post-game presser. He will say that Crab should have been out of there with only allowing 3 runs in 5 innings.

Logan Kensing? What the freak. I just don't understand. Does Manny Acta want to lose games or is he literally that clueless? And is the FO so oblivious/cares so little they don't fire him for the fact that his pitching decisions have lost us a good 6-8 games this season? We'd be over .500 if we had a manager who knew how to utilize managers.

ANOTHER WALK!!! TAKE HIM OUT!!! Send him down to AAA! Do something!

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #436:** May 11, 2009, 11:51:17 PM »

freak YOU, yes YOU, Manny Acta.

I think Acta wants to see how many consecutive batters he will walk in.

Lintyfresh85 · « **Reply #437:** May 11, 2009, 11:51:21 PM »

Please don't put Kensing in.

He's actually worse than D-Crab.

Cabrera is an inexcusable disgrace to pitching.

Nat of the Living Dead · « **Reply #439:** May 11, 2009, 11:52:06 PM »

I'd be interested in knowing who the hell actually wants the job of managing the Washington Nationals. I mean, seriously.

uncleteddy · « **Reply #440:** May 11, 2009, 11:52:08 PM »

Statgeek trivia:

When Kensing gives up the Grand Slam here, the runs are all unearned for Cabrera and the team, but the homer will count as an earned run for Kensing.

like logan kensing is SOOOOOOO much better

Bags · « **Reply #442:** May 11, 2009, 11:52:15 PM »

Sure Cabrera should be out of the inning, but pitchers need to be able to shake-off that kind of thing too.

PC · « **Reply #443:** May 11, 2009, 11:52:21 PM »

This the reason why Ryan Zimmerman won't be starting at 3rd base in the All Star game!

cmdterps44 · « **Reply #444:** May 11, 2009, 11:52:27 PM »

Hes awful. Business is so much more entertaining to me now.

Atleast Caps won and Zimmy extended already and JZ is on the mound tomorrow. Have to look at the positives.

the bigger disgrace is that the front office won't eat his salary and get rid of him.

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #446:** May 11, 2009, 11:53:38 PM »

I think they are just throwing Kensing out there again because they are going to dump him after the game.

Im watching this meltdown and wondering all of us on this board say warm someone up where is Manny? or St Claire?

Cabrera walks in 2 runs...
nacionales 2
giants 7

ATTENTION TED & MARK LERNER, STAN KASTEN, AND ALL THE MINORITY STOCKHOLDERS OF THIS TEAM. FIRE MANNY ACTA AND RANDY ST CLAIRE TONIGHT. DEPORT CABRERA IMMEDIATELY. FIRE KASTEN & LERNER IF THEY WON'T DO IT!

Coladar · « **Reply #448:** May 11, 2009, 11:53:57 PM »

When I was called out for being overly negative and wanting Cabrera to blow it, this is why. Every single game is like this. Half the games he pitches horribly but makes it out with the skin of his teeth. The other half can be blamed on an error after which Cabrera totally loses it and just plain sucks like tonight. If he had blown it, it'd be another notch closer to getting him off the team. But now it can all be blamed on Willingham nice and clean and Cabrera loses no favor with the FO/Manny the Idiot. Just blow the game early on and get it over with so the FO will wake up instead of this crap game after game. God games like this suck.

Yup. And that is idiotic thinking, because it ignores the fact that Cabrera is incapable of pitching at a professional level. There is no excuse for anyone to be pitching at this level who can't throw a strike at will.
