    That was a Graveman spot. Bad managing Dusty.

    With how pissed I am at Dusty, I wonder how McCullers feels. Javier needs clean slates, dude can't throw accurately enough for that spot.

    Javier had inherited 2 baserunners all season. Graveman threw 9 pitches last night. There's a day off tomorrow.

    Thanks, Dusty.

    Easiest decision he had all year. Biggest out of the game, only 7 outs to go, and you don't go with one of your 2 best? Just stupid.

    you don’t have to wonder. The camera caught him throwing stuff and storming off. Rightly so.

    100% this...

    One of their best hitters with the biggest AB of the game in 7th with 2 outs. Yes, Graveman pitched yesterday but you have an off day tomorrow.

    It's those kind of decisions by Dusty that scare the heck out of me for the playoffs.
