It's fair to assume that I was Monday Morning QBing, but I've never been a big fan of the suicide squeeze. Yes, if the game is tied and you want the winning run it makes SOME sense, but usually it is a low percentage play that results in one run.

That being said, the whole firing Garner thing is silly. One M is the only manager we've fired in mid-season under Drayton's watch. Considering One M had NEVER finished higher than second in any season as a manager, he didn't build up the good will necessary to retain a job in a season where he was clearly underachieving. Garner took this team to the World Series. That deserves some rope.
I'm down with OBP (yeah you know me).
