Another loss caused by Tracy

Again tonight, Tracy allowed another starting pitcher the chance to let the game get away after a galiant effort to give the Bucs a chance to win.  Am I the only one that thinks Tracy knows nothing about pitchers.  How many Pirate pitchers have pitched past 6 innings lately?  Not very many.  With the score 3-0 after 6, why not shake Maholm's hand and depend on your bullpen to hold the lead.  This has happened too many times this year, I attribute at least 10-15 losses to Tracy in this fashion.  Maybe it doesn't matter, but I think it does (36-42 (10-losses) or 41-37 (15-losses)sounds better than 26-52 and don't get me started on the 1-run games that he has lost because he has no clue what reliever to bring in.
