MLB: Astros Manager Hinch:”Twitter is not healthy”

“Twitter’s not healthy.” The manager of Houston Astros, A. J.Hinch, doesn’t think much of the short messaging service, and advises every young manager to refrain from doing so.In doing so, he hits the same score as Joe Maddon, who was severely criticized by the Chicago Cubs for his decision not to use Closer Wade Davis in Game 2 of the NLCS – including on Twitter.

“If it doesn’t go well, there is a public execution,”Hinch said, suggesting that the best way to ignore the criticism being spread through social networks.

Maddon decided against Davis last Sunday, and instead had John Lackey pitched for the first time in his career on two consecutive days.On the 9th.Inning allowed Lackey to justin Turner, the 3-Run-Homerun of Dodgers-Third-Baseman, who was the decisive player in the game.

“I think that many details and facts about the players will never be made public,”Hinch added, and indirectly admonishes against rashly criticizing the team’s decisions.

Maddon himself doesn’t take criticism about social networks seriously:”Social media doesn’t count at all.Sports journalists should not rely on Twitter to write a new story,”the 63-year-old said soberly.
