I hardly ever (maybe even never) criticized Joe Girardi for any of his moves. Including bringing in Chapman in non-save situations, continuing to use Tyler Clippard during his awful slump in hopes of him working it out, the infamous failure to review the HBP in last year's ALDS, even though he was told not to review by his review guy, and was limited in his time to make a decision which in itself is ridiculous...
I LOVED Joe Girardi, and I'm not a Boone hater. I just don't see the improvement from Joe to Aaron so far...
I just hope the decision to let Joe go doesn't bite us in the a$$, in a crucial playoff game in October.
PS: YES!!!! RBI single for Hicks!!
