That's just sportsfan being overly emotional.  I'd be calling for Manny's head if he sat Milledge for Willie Harris.

It's bad enough that the red-hot Nieves is sitting in favor of Estrada. :bang:
Milledge along with Pena are terrible match-ups against Glavine.  They need to sit back and be patient.

Horrible walk by Redding.  Throw a strike you wuss.

bright move Redding - walk escobar after you are ahead 0-2, so that Chipper can come up with a man on.

Hopefully, those knuckleheads in our FO learn a thing or two about stadium seat pricing after this year.  Is it any wonder that the seats that are reasonably priced fill up and the terrible bargains are often nearly empty?

Of course.  That's awful.  You have to make Escobar earn his way on base in front of Chipper/Teixeira.

Don't blame St.Claire because Redding is an idiot.  He has a history of doing stupid things like that. Remember in his last start when he walked Schneider and Santana?

Looks like Redding doesn't even want to go 5.  I guess he knows he has no chance of getting a win, anyway.

What a load of crap.  Redding's 30 and a veteran.  He knows damn well what the plan is.  If not, he should.  I can't believe you're blaming this on St. Claire.
