Why leave Bum in when he is clearly struggling? You have one of the best bullpens in baseball. Give your relievers a clean inning to start.
Last year, the Giants were close to leading the league with inherited runners. The Dodgers, Astros, Red Sox were close to last in inherited runners. Why? Their managers pulled their starters before they got into trouble.
Dave Roberts isn't 10% the manager that Noggin is. But in this regard, Noggin has proved himself incapable of learning nor adjusting. A shame, a five run lead wasted. Didn't have to be that way.
The last half of 2018, the Giants scored a paltry 3.24 runs per game. Good times, good times. Those were the days, for the team now scoring 2.5 runs a game. Oye!
I don't know if this would make Tito happy or sad. Probably happy, but then again any attention Velez gets is enough for him. Plus he'd probably say that at least half of those hits would have fallen if the Giants weren't playing at twilight.
