Five Questions: Cleveland Indians by Ryan Richards March 16, 2007 http://www.hardballtimes.com/main/article/five-questions-cleveland-indians2/ 1. So what's with all these platoons? 2. So why is Ryan Garko stuck behind Casey Blake? 3. Can Jhonny Peralta remain at shortstop? 4. Will quantity over quality work in the bullpen? 5. Will Eric Wedge be fired if the Indians don't make the playoffs? == [quote] Wedge's real flaw has been his handling of bullpens, or more specifically, his insistence on assigning roles. He'll set up a pecking order by inning, and then stick to it to the point of exasperation. That's great when you have an excellent and consistent bullpen, like the Indians had in 2005, but a recipe for disaster when there are injuries or just plain inconsistency. ... ... The bullpen is always going to be small Sample Size Theater, and in cases of instability, the manager should be playing general manager on a micro scale, assigning roles and appearances based on their latest observations. ... -- 「孩子们对火都有好奇心，只想划根火柴试试。你若说会烧手指头，他根 本不懂烧是什麽。我就看他划着了，渐渐烫了手指，他才明白，从此不敢 玩火。划火柴是小事，将来的大事何尝不如此，靠父母的规劝是没有用的 ，要由他自己去磨练自己，不必多管。但要多给他机会去实习。」 - 夏元瑜，「望子成龙」，收录於氏着《马後炮》 --
