Storen s...I think Storen read my quote yesterday! <br /><br /><i>Storen said...It's all about winning. It's not about what I want.</i><br /><br />Very mature statement. He gets it. Others made a bigger deal about this than it really was. Storen is a rookie and has a lot to learn but learned quite the lesson on Tuesday night!Steve M.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-6564448851711593552010-09-23T09:00:38.109-04:002010-09-23T09:00:38.109-04:00Wonder if Torre would ever come to Washington?

It's really important to see quotes in context, imo, and it's something that's often lost in this sound bite/Internet age. <br /><br />(Good luck on folks not making things into big stories, Drew. I think that ship has sailed.

And yet...and yet...let us imagine Riggs leaving Storen in for another batter following the homerun, out and walk. What would we be saying if Storen gave up another home run making it a nailbiter? <br /><br />Would the fans and reporters be remembering back to the blown lead in Philly??? You betcha. Would this have damaged Storen's confidence? Maybe not but many others would have questioned his ability as a closer. Not worth the risk on a kid who is one year out of the college ranks.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-34479095289904374572010-09-22T19:45:59.158-04:002010-09-22T19:45:59.158-04:00Riggs was dead on, and Storen well understood.

Only in baseball would somebody think that a player's confidence could be 'shaken' by being substituted in a game situation.Dochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17614998804163989623noreply@blogger.com
