THat was an absolutely abysmal and inexcusable pitching change

Bad move, no doubt.

But, it is not the reason the Rays lost the game.

They lost the game because their bats struck out versus bullpen scrubs. (16 total Ks).

Every talking head will kill Cash, and completely ignore how pathetic the Rays bats were all night long.

1)Rays bats have struck out 14 times and scored 1 total run

2) Dave Roberts has routinely pulled dominant Dodgers pitchers early all game long, and it has worked flawlessly


So lets blame a single Rays pitching change
The worst pitching change in ws history? The one move that may have cost them the game? Ummmm. Yeah.

Crazy good....good for Kershaw, classy guy and nice to see him get the monkey off his back.....Fuck TB also.....

Yeah I've been pulling for the Dodgers for a few years mostly for Kershaw to get one. But also because even if they are a big market team they got a lot of likeable guys. Good to see them get one.

I just wanted la since they already won the nba and its so rare to get multiple titles in one year.

How fucked up would that be for Major League Baseball??

They get a Covid-19 outbreak in the deciding game of the World Series and all the family members, kids, and media on the field

I hope to God it does not happen.

I hope it was just a false positive test. It is cringe worthy to see all those kids grouped in there as well.

Taking out Snell was the stupidest move I have ever seen in a WS
He was smokin thruout his stint. Can't believe Cash, who has otherwise done an outstanding job managing this team, pulled Snell. Colossal mistake, absolutely colossal.

The theory is fine, but the problem is that he brought in a pitcher who has been struggling very badly.

The theory was terrible. Dude was absolutely dealing, no stress at all. Top of the order hadn't put a ball in play against him. Mookie is better vs righties. Just simply seeing a new pitcher changes the Dodgers mindset.

It was god awful.

Yup and he'll have to live with it forever....He took a guy out that wasn't going to pitch until next year and was on his A+ game.....Amazing anyone would argue it was a bad move......

I'm not enthusiastic about the theory. Personally, I would've left him in, but Cash's move probably works out better if he had brought in someone who hadn't been struggling so badly. That said, if it weren't for that wild pitch, the Dodgers probably don't even score that inning. That was such a huge play.

Yes, Justin Turner test positive and the MLB had just received the results when they yanked him out tonight...Scary shit
