In defense of Snit

1) Duvall had a really good AB last night against a hard throwing righty. I know small sample. And the alternatives are Hech and Ortega.

2) Melancon's cutter is a very good pitch against lefty hitters.

3) From his closer days Melancon knows how to handle back to back games with relatively high pitch counts. If he didnt think he could go today he would have told Snit.
