    Ideally you get to use him every damn game to shut down a few batters. That's the idea. (sigh)

    But there is 1 out and man on third. You need SO's. Presley is as likely to allow contact as get a SO.

    Stanek makes more sense here. but Dusty doesn't trust him because of his possible command/walks.

    It was CLEAR that Montero didn't have it...Dusty mismanaging again. Pathetic.

    Dusty needs to be in the doghouse.

    This is unreal. I honestly have no idea what Dusty is thinking, We all know Pressly’s propensity to give up a run. Sending him in here in this scenario with only one out and a man on third makes ZERO sense.

    Should of pulled him after 2 walk’s especially a 4 pitch walk. That is a sign right there

    I feel like Pressley isn't the type of pitcher that goes in to save an inning. He needs a new inning. I feel like he is consistent in getting saves but always gets one guy on base and in this case that will result in a score.

    Now he wants Pressly to get 5 outs. Stanek has been nothing but awesome and we keep his ass on the bench. Weirdest development of this postseason.

    Two walks in that situation is unacceptable

    Its so obvious to take this guy out... You have 5 closers in the bullpen. 5 of them between Neris, Preslley, Abreu, Stanek, Montero.

    Why are you taking so long to react after two god damn walks.

    Its amazing how bad this reaction is.
