greg775 Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 17, 2012 -> 04:29 AM) Yes, I've seen plenty of managers that will pull their pitcher after allowing 8 hits in 3 innings (especially if they're one of the worst starters in baseball coming into the game). Seriously? After getting out of it with "just" four runs in three innings? Your starting pitcher? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 17, 2012 -> 11:28 AM) I do think every manager in baseball would do the same thing, leave Horrible Humber in. Four runs in three innings sucks, but it's not seven, eight runs. YOu have to let your starter go five as long as his pitch count is OK. Seriously, don't you agree? No manager hooks Humber this early "only" giving up four. I do think he sucks, though. When your options are Stewart, Ohman, Santiago or Hudson....and you don't want to completely destroy your bullpen, not knowing how long Quintana can keep pitching so well as a starter, there's just no good option. Personally, I'd have gone with Santiago and pinch hit for Humber there, but it's not like a "sure thing" and Viciedo doesn't match-up very well with Billingsley the way he's been going for most of June. We don't have a strong bench, especially hitting wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your starting pitcher? If it was 4-0 or 5-0, Humber definitely would be pulled. In some ways, it's counter-intuitive, because you do have a lot better chance to win the game you're tied or within a run or so either way when you bring in a bullpen guy. The problem is that the quality of your last two or three guys in the pen shouldn't be better than your starter, but it is what it is. Yet another hit given up by Humber. Just seems like he can never shut down the opponent after the Sox score, same with Floyd this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think KW deserves to still be the GM of this team based on the previous 6 years. Expressing concern over the current state of the rotation is altogether different.
