Gordon Beckham..."Jose has had such tremendous at bats"...K looking.

"Bummer has looked great lately"...3 straight hits.

Why does Stoney take a whole week off in the middle of a season?

He’s really bad.

Agreed he shouldn't start the inning, but why didn't Bummer have the same leash like Kimbrel (one runner) or Kopech (two runners)?

And once the run is allowed, wouldn't you want Kimbrel or Kopech in to try to keep it at one? Ruiz or Wright are literally the lowest options. Tony refuses to go to his best late if the score is 1 run behind, many times he doesn't like using them in a tie game since they can't get a precious hold or save.

With Hendriks seemingly out today and tomorrow, no I'm pretty sure I wouldn't use Kimbrel to keep it a 1 run game.  It's just not a high leverage spot any more.
