    And now it's not a reasonable game given Boston's pen.

    Just not something I really understand. Winkler can't pitch everyday, but it's still a reasonable game, if you're removing him, put in Winkler and play matchups.
    Aggression with prospects is fine, but being stupid is not. There should be a way to find a happy medium between a Pirates like idea of being overly cautious with prospects and going stupidly fast with prospects.

    That's probably the most confounding move of the season so far

    Pretty impressive consensus, immediately, that said decision wouldn't work out well. Our second-guessing, at the very least, is not slumping with the team.

    Betts may crush lefties or something (I don't really know) but if you really want to play matchup, with a rested pen, that has to be Winkler and not Wisler.

    Maybe Snit just got the names mixed up?

    Absolutely. And after a day off. Not like everyone in the pen has worked 3 straight days. Just dumb as hell

    as hard as it is to fathom...I believe Snit is not aware of Biddle's splits data

    Have to at least consider the possibility.

    I would honestly rather that be the case. Senile instead of stupid.

    1 run is reasonable, no matter how good a pen is.

    Not bringing Winkler is ridiculous.

    Wisler needs to be told to buy a house in Gwinnett county.

    But when you think about it though, it does make sense to have our last guy in the bullpen come in to face the league's best offense's 1-5 hitters, especially considering everyone is rested
