Stallings with 11 saves should have come in good call.

Stallings has blown a game before.

Again, if the closer is so good then let your other guy cruising continue until the very first sign of trouble. I would have at least liked to have seen Poche start the top of the 9th vs the lefty.

Stallings is still a young guy with no experience prior to this season in this role. I get you should be able to count on your closer for the 9th with a 1 run lead.. but I still believe in keeping the guy cruising in the game.

I just don't get this insistence that you have to bring in your closer to start the 9th. Coach the game by feel

Agreed. But when he has his good stuff going that breaking ball is damn near unhittable

Was wondering if it was just me. Right down the heart of the plate and it's a questionable call. These guys are bad.

Laird makes that catch and stallings has two outs on four pitches. Outfield has screwed us on two occasions now. (Kentucky game)

put the guy in who you trust in the crucial situation. He has delivered all but one time this year.
