should probably have pulled Kirk! Lol
Any other catcher in baseball and Julio is probably getting all the way home that AB, that’s how many wild pitches that guy is saving every Little game
First of all. My comment was related to Gausman’s bad location - facetiously. Because I agree, it was shockingly bad. But just how far down the line do you want to go in a tie game to be punitive. Pull Kirk too?
Secondly, Kirk was amazing. Because Little was just that bad. And Schneider made that determination to ride that horse.
Third. Whenever you pull a starter earlier than you need to, you open yourself up to the risk of over-taxing your bullpen. I thought the move was both bad in the immediacy and going forward.
