Walt Weiss can suck one. He held LeMahieu (sp?) out to preserve the batting title, and now today he gets canned. I wonder if he is regretting that decision already. Punk.
LaMaheiu had more at bats than Murphy and you can't complain about him not playing because Murphy didn't play down the stretch either even if it was due to injury.
It was unsportsmanlike strategy. He was taking advantage of Murphy not playing. What sucks is if not for those three pinch hitting opportunities, Murphy would have won.
OTOH, you could say that he didn't it was fair to take advantage of Murphy while he was hurt. Stayed on the bench to give him one last opportunity to win the title.
D.J. quite literally quit while he was ahead. This is the most Slate style contrarian thing you've said in a while.
Chase Hughes @chasehughesCSN · 15s16 seconds ago GM Mike Rizzo on Daniel Murphy: 'I think he'll be ready for Game 1.'
But not when he was so far ahead that Murphy couldn't get the lead with one hit.Very honorable move by DJ. I hope he comes to Washington.
