This is from a comment at BTF regarding Jerry Manuel's decision-making.

I post it because it is sure to amuse some Rays' fans:

"Can Brian Stokes get in a game once in a while? Just one time?"

I loved Stokes. I know I'm the only one.

95mph fastball, plus curve and a plus change. If only he threw them all consistently.

I had hopes for him too,

and thought Maddon’s decision to move him to the bullpen was very smart. It didn’t work out here, but he does throw hard and his control was never terrible.
