Right in line with my first conscious thought this morning, FTJ. Capuano underperforms, so he's replaced. Vargas, same thing. Yet Yost continues to cost this team games, and he's still right there, as though nothing were wrong. His poor decision making, coupled with the bullpen's ineffectiveness (I love you SHOUSE!), have put so much pressure on the offense, it's no wonder they're up at the dish hacking for the long-ball so much. How big of a lead is enough for this team? Is 5 runs enough margin for error for the 'pen? Seriously - would it have to be more? To hear Yost call Linebrink's bonehead error "bad luck" last night just tells you how disconnected he is. Was, on the whole, the fact that an easy play turned into another run and extended the inning (wherin yet another run scored) "bad luck"? Yes - absolutely. But to say that Linebrink didn't make the play due to "bad luck" is simply delusional. He didn't execute, and screwed the lead he'd come in to protect. There's nothing unlucky about that, nor is there anything unlucky about playing to Jaque Jones's strength, and having it hurt you.http://static.yuku.com//domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/mad.gif The one thing I can tell you as a bright side, is that the Cubs have obviously worked out a deal with the devil.
