I was hoping we could tack on more for a position player to pitch

Pulling Berrios at 76 pitches is an odd choice considering the bullpen situation.

Pina better not blow up.

Not a good first impression here from Pina.
Nick Nurse recounting his first meeting with Kawhi:
“We could have gone forever. (Raptors management) kept knocking on the door and I was like, ‘A couple more minutes.’ Because we were really into it."

And he blew up and we are probably going to end up using a high leverage RP in a game that it never should have happened.

This kind of bad managing adds up over time.

I’m fine with it. Bring this guy when there’s no pressure. Reduce everybody else’s workload. You have to take a little bit of a chance with BABIP. And that Vladdy will field throws from the third baseman.

Schneider just played us into using a high leverage RP to hold this lead for absolutely no reason, yeah.

Pina has no business being in the majors and you need to protect against exactly what just happened by using Berrios in the 7th.

I understand coming back with Pina in the 8th,

But once 1 guy got on base, they should have started warming up Sandlin.... shouldn't have waited for 2 guys to get on. I guess in the end Sandlin, came in after only 1 other guy get on base. Did he warm up enough though -- that was quick.

Schneider you moron! Nice job using a high leverage arm. You could have had Berrios go one or two more innings. Da **** is wrong with this guy sometimes?

And Green coming in.

So in a game where we should have used no major league RPs (Pina doesn’t count) while our pen is dead, we will end up using two of them at a minimum due to one puzzling decision.
