Kind of like batting order.
Workman deserves a shot. He has been quietly putting up some very good numbers.
There's a big difference between valuing an arbitrary statistic and valuing how a team is constructed.
How Workman is used down the stretch is a big indication of Farrell's ability to manage his bullpen.
You're equating how a team is constructed with batting order?
It is the team that gets put on the field. Maybe I should have said "lineup construction" rather than team construction?
Kimmi was talking about batting order, as in 'Mookie should not be hitting leadoff!' I'm not sure where the confusion is.
I know what batting order is. Doesn't the manager have a say in the batting order of the team that gets put on the field? Isn't that something that fans can have a say about for various reasons? She's definitely stretching logic by saying caring about saves is the same as caring about batting order.
i hope your right. i fear he can't handle Boston.
other names i have posted under: none
Fans can have a say in and care about anything they want, including saves.
All I'm saying is that fans tend to overvalue the save stat, as they overvalue batting order.
It's "Argue with Kimmi Day" and you didn't tell me?

How many fans really care about saves though?
LOL Apparently, you didn't get the memo.It's "Argue with Kimmi Day" and you didn't tell me?
Kimmi has no problem arguing with anyone else. Don't see what the big deal is here. I value Kimmi's opinion as much as anyone else.It's "Argue with Kimmi Day" and you didn't tell me?
Quite a few.
