I really don't think Dusty is making the decisions, they likely come from the top down. He tries to work with what he has, which frankly isn't too much, particularly in his pitching staff. Upper management has made most of the decisions to let big bats move along and it has cost them in the ability to push runs across, they leave a ton of runs sitting on the base paths. They have what appear to be 3 good starters, one who is hit or miss and one who could be good someday. Their middle relief is so up and down it is ridiculous, still not sold on Weathers as the go-to setup man and even their closer isn't a shut-down kind of guy (we need a Papelbon or Rivera type of closer, hard to find I know, but somehow they have to find one). Just my observations, but some of it is pretty clear. :tu |
