Good question on Twitter..

What's the point of babying sale all year if he can't go in this spot?

You right. They should've just kept Dodd in to face Harper and then turn it to Iggy in the 9th with, at worst, a 3-run lead.

Just an absolutely no-balls move in a must-win game.


Is Shane Beamer in Atlanta now?

I agree with you about Sale’s usage in that game 3 situation which made no sense, but we were fricked from the gate after beating Philly as far as pitching is concerned. Considering the starters we still have to match up with there’s just no relief in sight. Walt can only manage at this point and the results are a dice throw. If the bats are able to come alive then we can mitigate the pitching dilemma. It was a Hail Mary expecting us to steal a win away anyways. Let’s just beat their arse at home and make the series interesting with a deciding game 5. This team has grit.

That's my point, the managing (and it's just as much AA as it is Walt) is not setting us up in the best spot.

Asking our pen to cover 18 innings on the road not only fricks us for those two games, but makes it harder to win the games that our starters are pitching.

And if the idea is that runs are at a premium, we should be pulling out all of the stops possible from a pitching standpoint.

On top of that, is the next Sale start the last of his career if the lockout is a year long?
