Message: [QUOTE="dasher, post: 3900168, member: 6061"] Classic example of what a over rated in game manager Alex Cora is. First, he somehow gets 5 innings out of Richards and with 90 pitches, he sends him out for the 6th. Richards gives up 2 quick hits and a run, Sox lead is down to 3-2. the pen gets them out of trouble. They add a run to make it 4-2 going in to the 8th. He brings in a guy that has been released twice already this season. Gives up a quick two runs. Sox take a 2 run lead in extras and he brings in Andriese a guy that you are scared to bring in against the Yanks with a 9-2 lead last sunday. They lose. I will give him that the players play hard for him. and his teams never quit. But his game management is terrible. 3 different really stupid moves. His team could have survived 2. and they usually do. But not 3. and before anyone says well, they have a healthy lead, Toronto has 31 games left with teams currently in last place. 31. [/QUOTE]
