Back when Clint Hurdle was fired, I was ecstatic. I was tired of watching Hurdle not play his best players. But Tracy has proven to be just as bad during the playoffs, overplaying matchups, trying to counteract the Phillies left-handed starters.
Hawpe, of the .900-something OPS, is sitting on the bench in favor of Ryan Spillborghs. Ian Stewart has one AB this playoffs. Jason Giambi pinch hit for Dexter Fowler in the 9th inning, even though Fowler was 2 for 4 on the night, and Giambi has been 0 for 2 in the playoffs thus far.
The Fowler for Giambi move was inexcusable, no way a cold pinch hitter is better than one of your best players who hit the ball well that night, it's just stupid.
