That's nothing more than fan speak. I'm sure he felt bad for what went down, and didn't have much nice to say about himself...

 

 

I'm sure he feels worse than anybody. He knows the Reds gave up a lot to get him and Bray, and he's been nothing but disappointing, but I still think he should stay and answer questions from the media.

That's easy to say when you aren't the guy with a mic in your face after that performance. Let's face facts. It could have been any one of the 4 guys that were used in the pen today. They all put way too many runners on base, and were asking for trouble...

It was HOT at the park today! If Majewski could just get a ground ball at someone instead of finding the open spaces, he'd be fine. .

 

Isn't this true for every pitcher?

You're right it could have been any of the guys used, but Majewski is the one that took the loss. I don't remember Weathers or Coffey running out on the media when they blew some late leads.

Yup. And more so for a ground ball pitcher. He's getting the ground balls, but they are into open space. Tough break kid...

And what did that change when they did say something? I don't recall much from them in those situations to be honest...

No offense, GT , but that just sounds like excuses. If I'm a flyball pitcher and I give up homeruns, am I also a "tough break kid?"

 

He has failed miserably and the Reds need to make a decision on him. Put him on the DL is need be or introduce him to Louisville.

I think you are exactly right. You can't keep running from your troubles they only follow you. He did not have to give a 15 minute speech but he could have been brief and gave the guy a chance to earn his money and do his job as long as the media was respectful to him.

It just showed maturity on their part, and respect from the media, and fans like me.

I'm with you. I've been saying DL for over a week now. I just don't think he's garbage. He's in a tough luck stretch. That's life sometimes...

And I'm sure it happens far more often than we hear about. If Lancaster doesn't post it we never know. Do you know for sure that Stormy and Coffey have not done the same thing this year???

I'm certainly not calling him garbage. I'm still glad the Reds made the trade, and I still feel that Majewski is going to be a huge part of the Reds future.

Yes, I've been in the clubhouse after every game. Of course I don't know if they have or not, but why do you think Lancaster even mentioned it in his blog?

Because it would cause the reaction it has? The goofballs that post on his blog are eating it up...

That, and the fact that I'm sure Lancaster and the rest of the media thought it was pretty (for the lack of a better word) unprofessional of Majewski.
