    I get all that. Trust me. but this game could have been different. I'm not saying it had to be devo, but it certainly didn't have to be Jankowski or bust. We did have Santana on the ropes. It was tied with two outs. At least put an established major leaguer in the game. Look at the score. This game would have likely been ours, without too much extra bullpen stress.

    Bottom Line: It was just a really odd time to "pull the starters" continuing the NBA analogy. :)
