Everybody was talking about accepting some losses after the clinch so we can set up our rotation for the playoffs. In what fucking universe does that mean letting one of our top 2 pitchers throw 119 pitches? I can’t believe Ricky’s a candidate for manager of the year. 

Same one where you let Ruiz pitch in one of the biggest spots of the year against the hottest hitter on the planet.

There is no way you let him go almost 120 pitches right before the postseason. They’ve treated the last week of games like exhibitions and now treating it like a World Series game.

They sure got cute after clinching and now they can’t right the ship.   So he pushes Gio to a career high in pitches for what reason??

The opposite, you prepare a pitcher in the regular season, so that they are ready in the postseason. Ozzie or Ricky don’t wet their pants, let their pitchers work out of trouble. For the long term development of the pitcher.

plus he’s not going in four days, he’s going in six days.
