We all know I am a Tek fan. Always have been. This off season, I was just sick thinking that he might not get resigned by the team. When he did sign, I was happy as could be…jumping up and down…and singing from the roof tops. I think the world of our Captain.
I also think it’s time for the Captain to be the Captain from the bench. I had accepted his diminished bat for the other things he does. But with two glaring errors in the past two days, umm…yeah, it’s time to call a spade a spade.
In the game on Wednesday….Tek let a ball get beyond him on a strike 3 from Ramon Ramirez that caused all hell to break loose and our boys to go from having a 2 run lead to having a 2 run deficit.
Then last night. Josh Beckett threw a nasty breaking ball…that Tek went to the mound and called. And, Tek lost the ball again and it allowed the runner on 3rd to score…game tied.
Ugh with a side of ugh. With defense like that, I can no longer defend his lack of offense. V MART should be our starting catcher, in my lowly opinion.
Sorry Captain. I still love you. Always will. I just can’t stand strong in your defense any longer. Sad times, sad times.
