Edwin out here whiffing badly still
Gardner and Edwin competing for worst swings
To bad Ford didnt make the roster, Encarnacion has looked lost.
Was kind a hopin the Astros were going to pinch hit Babe Ruth there.Bad Otto
Hindsight I know... but green was dominating.Boone can stick his binder where the sun don't shine.
Now THAT was over-managing. OofGreen was dealing. Give him two more outs, brutal.
Maybe later in the game you make that move but definitely premature in the 5th to yank a guy who, like you said, didn’t have any trouble.What’s annoying is since you are bringing in another pitcher now, you’ve lost ottavino after just those batters. Green was dealing. Great chance he gets through this inning and you still have ottavino to bring in.
I know managers try to mitigate risk by making moves before a current pitcher gets into trouble but the purpose of a reliever is to relieve a pitcher working through or into trouble.
Green didn’t have any trouble.
Let’s get that run back! Edwin and Gardner are due for something... they’ve looked awful
