Yea Volstad is ok for mop up duty, but you need a stuff guy for this high leverage situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keeps the other guys from being overused like earlier in the season when they couldn't handle it ? It's simple, if your bullpen is so overworked that you have to use Volstad here, then why in the hell do you pull Shields so early? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never said they were overworked . Preventing them from being overworked+ Tank Commander + paid to lose which is why he won't get fired. No reason to get worked up about it. It's all according to the master plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxBlanco Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 I don’t think that’s a terrible play by Matt. If he steps on first, there is no chance to get the guy at home. So either way, best case scenario is only getting one out. Throwing home gets the lead guy and nobody scores. I understand that they are up by two runs, but it’s not an awful play if Omar knows it’s a force. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if throwing was the right call, once you've committed to tagging the base, you have to tag the base. Basic, Pony-league fundamentals. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
