I can't argue with letting Soup hit here. Now he needs to mow them down in the bottom of the inning.

Agreed. But you have to give him the Bush/Capuano treatment late in the game: you have the pen ready and yank him the second a batter reaches.
It's a matter of opinion, and your opinion is wrong.

If Yost puts anyone but Linebrink in the game if Suppan is taking out I'm going to scream.

It's the same thing every single game. Why do we keep watching?

Not Yost's fault. Yet another game lost in the 7th.

Is it possible to fire this pile of crap manager we have during a game? Why the fck would you take out Suppan when he is rolling? I pray to god we lose this game and Yost gets fired. If Estrada calls another curve ball...literally anywhere in the vicinity of home plate then Floyd Ks and everything is okay..yet Yost panics and yanks Suppan. :nonono:

It's interesting that no one ripped Yost when he made the move. Only AFTER it doesn't work out.

Why is McTurd warming up?

while i don't know about firing. i agree though. ineffective bullpen management, not just waiting too long, but also panicking and yanking early. i've never bashed yost, so this isn't reactionary.

I'm no Yost backer but come on. He gets criticized for staying too long with a guy and criticized for yanking a guy too early.

I'm no baseball expert...but aren't those manager responsibilities and his decision? If there is someone else I should criticise then let me know...
