Odalis Perez goes 7 innings gives up 2 runs and leaves with a 7-2 lead, seems safe right? HELL NO! Manager decides it's Lima time and then all hell breaks loose, 5 runs in the inning. 5 Walks 3 hits including 3 walks with the bases loaded in a row and bam there's goes my win. And all of this happened after the first 2 guys were retired in the inning. I have a pitching staff of Beckett, Vazquez, Oswalt, Santana, Redman and Perez and have a grand total of 12 wins. Unbelievable. Just had to get this off my chest, can't remember when I've been this pissed, anybody else feel my pain? I mean come on I think I have a very good pitching staff and I'm dead last in wins, somebody else has to know what that's like.

this has gotten me 7 wins, 11 loses, 13 saves, 157 ks, 4.7 era. i definitely expected more than that.. somebody shoot me. My pitching staff has caused me to go 1-4
He had only thrown like 90 pitches as well which makes the decision by the manager even harder to fathom. I guess he was pinch hit for in the 8th which is also IMO done too often in the NL and for mostly no return.
