For the Matheny haters

[Cranny]

After some searching, was able to track down the piece in Viva el birdos where it compared Matheny’s bullpen management to the rest of the league, and he graded out very well (including measuring better than Bochy & Francona).

The majority of media who cover (covered) the Cardinals were eager to parrot the same Matheny narratives over and over, but a deep data dive showed that much of that criticism was likely off target and unfair.

As it is on CT, with some of the self-professed "experts" on here.

What, Red? There’s a baseball discussion going on here. Why do you want to interrupt and be rude? Have you read the VEB analysis? If not, you have nothing to say or contribute.

Absolute baloney re Siegrist, Maness, and Bowman. You have zero proof of that. It’s just the opinion of an amateur fan.

I thought MM was an ok manager. His bullpen management, as I recall, was overly formulaic. He didn’t play the hot hand well or pivot from his usual roles, even if a guy was gassed or had a dead arm. Too loyal might be another way to call it.

He won’t admit that. I watched the same games he did during the Matheny era. I watched his stubborn (donkey) pitch to David Ortiz and cost us a WS. I watched him throw a guy who hadn’t pitched in a month and cost us a pennant. I watched him wreck the career of those relievers because he was incapable of adaptation. I watched him act like a defensive, petulant child when questioned about it. I watched the team IMMEDIATELY get better fundamentally when he was fired.

This is the first time I’ve seen Cranny get angry. Clearly there’s a bias here.

How many years has Bowman been pitching professionally?
And what possible proof do you have that Matheny “ruined”
Siegrist and Maness? That’s right ………none.
