Yeah....I'm tired of Maddon's bull chit also but I'm more tired of Matheny's brain freeze when it comes to winning a 'must win game'.

What game was he watching?? Everybody in the park knows that Wacha can go south real fast when he faces the lineup for the 3rd time. Did we have anyone up in the bull pen??

No--

it wasn't until the Cubs had a 4-1 lead did he do anything of note. Where was all this expanded roster bull chit? Where was all this 'all hands on deck'?
Where was this "do everything to win today's game philosophy'?

Back in the day-- we could have had quite a few proven major league managers wanting the Cardinal job-- Francona comes to mind
but DeWitt and company decided on the litle league manager out of Wildwood

Matheny has lived off the LaRussa glory years's for nearly 6 years now and is running out of 'glory'. All the marketing and all the hype will soon sound pretty hollow if the Cardinals don't make some moves to actually beat Central Division teams.

So Fork Joe Maddon but FORK Mike Matheny even more
