    Espada got caught sleeping and didn’t warm anyone up fast enough, or he just was stubborn and wanted Lance to do it on his own.

    Ok, how about now??? Is 7 runs and a triple enough to pull a freaking guy??

    Looks like our high leverage relievers will get a night off. Time to go do something else for the evening.

    Lance doesn’t belong with team anymore. I wouldn’t even trust him out of the bullpen.

    Lance should go ahead and recover back in AAA.

    He doesn't have a feel when to pull his pitchers. It is STILL a problem.

    Waited way too long. McCullers is not an MLB pitcher. Move on from him.

    Espada didn’t have to have his head shoved all the way up his rectum this inning. He certainly could have had someone warming since he was, even at the start of the inning, getting toward his pitch count.
    And/ the plan was gusto in relief so if you gave him the ball now with how stretched out he was he could have taken the game all the way to late innings. But as usual Joe was sitting their with his thumb up his ass watching the game instead of thinking ahead and being ready.
