Jays manager just got himself fired
The Jays are an incompetant organization if they bring him back. Berrios was fukking dealing and Schneider couldn't wait to pull him. No feel for the game at all.

Michael Kay just rightly called it out as a decision made last night looking at a spreadsheet.

Managers put too much emphasis on handedness matchups sometimes. If your dude is dealing then it shouldn't matter if 2 lefties are coming up.

MLB managing has never been worse. I have never seen so many idiotic decisions as I have in the past 5-10 years. The analytics revolution has jumped the shark.

must. give. millions. of. different. looks. to. hitters.



It's strictly for the risk averse and really assuming each pitcher is gonna ready that day.

Twins had no good swings against Berrios all day and they pull him to get renowned hitters alex kiriloff and matt wallner out of the lineup. We all agree that analytics goes too far but in pitching it really does. Have some feel for the game and your starter. As a Twins fan I'm glad Berrios is out of the game but I still am a fan of his and seeing him pitch that well was nice to see. The 0 run support also familiar for poor Berrios :mjcry:

if there's nobody on base, he gives no fukks about the matchup.

It's your starting pitcher in a do or die. If he's not trusted to get outs like that in the 4th inning, don't start him.

Jays telecast is saying the same shyt. “Purely analytics, waiting 2 days for this, why go with an unknown Kikuchi when Berrios is dealing”
