Schneider is like watching 2011 Bautista all over again.

The AAA guys are saving this franchise one AB at a time.

Green doesn't pitch all season immediately In the thick of the wild card race is in high leverage situations.

Definitely makes little sense, but we have a manager who pulls a Kikuchi who was completely dominating this team at 88 pitches. On the scale of odd things going on with this team, it's pretty low.

I'll be honest as good as kikuchi was pitching with all the righties coming up and his propensity to give up home runs I can see why they did it. That being said, Chad Green in this situation still not ideal but I guess with the way yimi was pitching they had no one else. Maybe should've left hicks in for one more inning.

I've been fine pulling Kikuchi early in numerous recent appearances but not today. He looked as good today as he has all season. We're now in a situation where we are running out of good RPs and blowing a lead partially as a result of this.

I mean, he's literally our best RP and it's the biggest spot of the game. Have no real choice. Not his fault his manager pulled Kikuchi for no good reason and then used Green/Mayza in bad spots.

I think we pull this out, but this is very Jays-ish to run through our bullpen like this in game 1 of a 10 in 10 stretch.
