If that's the reasoning then Jimenez should have been left in for the inning since he didn't have alot of pitches thrown and hadn't gotten hit hard exactly. You are either trying to protect the bullpen or play matchups, can't do both there.

Taking out one of our best bullpen arms to leave in a lefty specialist to face the heart of their order is just dumb ( and typical for Snitker).

Are you slow?

He brought Bummer in for a matchup after Jimenez lost his righty/righty matchup. It almost worked if Rojas wasn't fast as frick. But once Philly took the lead, you let Bummer wear it.

Again, stop being dumb.

No shite, which is what I said, dumbass. And then he turned around and ignored matchups to cost us the lead. Trying to go matchups and then giving up two batters later is nonsensical.

Aaron Bummer is great against lefties, and either mediocre or poor against righties depending on the year. He shouldn't be pitching against long stretches of righties consistently, and if he does he's going to have poor numbers for us this year most likely.

Calling everyone dumb and slow for disagreeing with you just makes you look like an idiot.

Anyway, good series win, but with a little better managing we probably sweep.
