    He needs to do better.

    Get ready for Pressly's 9th inning non-save situation.

    I swear he always has traffic on in his innings. Abreu that is. We'll see about Pressly now, lol.

    All our runs in each game in this series has come in one inning, the other 8 innings, we have been scoreless.

    You don’t go with Hader in this situation until we give up a run

    Had every right to be worried about Hader usage because our manager is clearly a moron. Exactly what I said happened.

    Why not use Pressly? He was already warming

    At the time I fully expected Abreu to give up a run. Now I have no clue what his process is other than he was already warming him up?

    we already know he doesn’t care about over usage.

    Using closers in non save situations is a mental block for some pitchers...
