@MarkPilgrim@rgfray1 It doesn’t have to have malice for a red. Just “reckless or dangerous” as per IFAB rules. Absolute straight red was warranted for that one.
@FirstUp1050@StevePhillipsGM It’s hard to watch but for what it’s worth, he deserved better based on his underlying stats. I’ve never seen this much red (good) on savant with such terrible outcomes in ERA/Whip. His 15 k/9 is still elite so there’s a serviceable arm in there but may need a scenery change.
@BluejaysAlways Schneider being a players coach can sometimes absolutely blow up in your face. There’s no reason Varland shouldn’t have gone 2 innings here. Hoffman DFA please
@RotoBallerMLB@RotoBaller There is zero chance Hoffman works his way back into the closers role. Varland has been lights out and pitched in back to back games before this one which is why he wasn’t used.
