    Dang. What a melt down, all with 2 outs. Montero has been very shaky as of late.

    Why Montero in this situation? He's been struggling. should have just left Urquidy in.

    Dusty off his rocker again.

    Montero sucked yesterday. Dusty wanted more proof. Nice.

    Montero is getting used too often.

    Had a bad feeling when Urquidy was taken out with just one more out to get in the 8th. Urquidy has won World Series games, he deserved the respect of being allowed to finish that inning.

    Games like this kill a starter's confidence in his team. Feel for Urquidy.

    On a slow roller. Do or die effort by Bregman. Here comes our brilliant manager.

    Forget about the decisions… Montero just doesn’t look all that good right now, regardless of the situation.

    Throwing 91-92 mph, all over the place.

    Dusty leaving him in right now is a major ego move…. There is no metric that says leaving him in is a good decision.

    Well I did correctly predict regression to the mean by Montero. Stanek likely next.

    I don't believe we have a solid answer for the setup man heading into the playoffs. I wanted that badly at the trade deadline. I think we have a lot of good 6th and 7th inning guys plus Pressly. That's pretty much it.
