I'm some situations it's a good idea, but putting in a lefty that has pitched 2/3 of an inning in the past month in a bases loaded situation in a conference game? Just to get that lefty lefty matchup.. It's questionable whether "situational baseball" is as good of an idea in that situation.

both of whom should throw before Girodo.

...baseball is the only sport where mathematical calculations are allowed to override common sense.


If all players were equal, it would work.


But since all players are not equal, more often than not, it just cheapens the game & creates a shitstorm.

That was just dumb. Hell, I havent pitched in 8 years andim right handed, but I couldn't be any worse than Girodo.

What is he saving Routt for? He puts our closer in for a third game in a row in the 5h inning.
