Back To Board

short guy

Posted By RobE

I would guess a short reliever was brought in because it was a hold situaton. You have not responded to the question about where you set your bullpen -- if it was agressive that might explain it taking Schmidt out in the fifth in a hold situation. I have never had a long reliever used in a playoff game so Johnson not being used is not surprising. Also have never set more than 4 guys in my rotation so don't know hoiw that would affect things -- I would guess it would cause starters to be left in longer than normal.
