I think we are
doing him a disservice by playing him at 2B. He needs to be at SS, and Gridley at 2B

Come on... If Cohen had left him in and he would have had more errors you guys would be calling for his head. Cohen just can't win with some of you guys.
If you wanna pull em, wait till he was up to hit again. Now we can't ph for holland which could be huge later
Wait, I wasn't watching. You're telling me Cohen replaced a field player mid-inning? Was it after an error so he had to make the jog of shame?
Cohen said post-game that he took LA out to protect his injury. Cohen reads six pack.
Am I crazy or do I remember that a few years back Cohen replaced both the pitcher and catcher in the first inning of a midweek game
Bobby Cox once famously did that to Andruw Jones when he was still a youngster. Seemed to work out OK for those two.
I was forced to listen to the bama broadcast while traveling today. The bama announcers were clear in their description that Alexander was pulled due to the error. There was no mention whatsoever of a possible injury. I could tell those guys were surprised by how that switch was handled. If Alexander aggravated his injury, it wasn't apparent to the bama guys or they missed it. I truly hope Cohen wasn't just being a 17n *******, but it really wouldn't surprise me.
Cohen pulled him because of the injury. Wasn't sure on letting him go but was pressed into a corner with the Stovall injury. Said it was clear he was in pain and uncomfortable out there. The error just made it clear he wasn't ready to go.
But by all means let's blame the idiot that will have us in the top 5 in the final month of the season with a team that most of you didn't think would comfortably make regionals. Anyone want to let me know the last time we were highly ranked heading into May? I'm all ears because I legitimately don't remember it. Possibly 19 seasons ago in Polk's first swan song I guess. We were borderline top 20 on this week in 2013.

I'm not here to argue either way, but Cox pulled Jones for loafing after a short fly.
I don't think he got pulled bc
he was injured on the play, he got pulled bc he was already injured before that.

I didn't seen the play yesterday but I was under the impression that Cohen might have thought it was effort related as well and led to the error.
To me it
was pretty clear, after listening to Cohen's postgame. We are low on MIF, and Holland has been terrible at the plate, so we played Luke, knowing he was hurt, but thinking he was good enough to play. That play occurred, and Cohen saw that he was not well enough to play. I assume, at that point, Cohen concluded that we were going to be in a low-scoring game (correct) so we could not afford to have 1/3 of our double play participants unable to turn it (correct), and replaced him. I don't see that as being a dick, rather being sensical.
