This Brewers formula for Hader will be the reason they don't win the WS.

Horrible roster management by both teams

Counsel used all his arms yesterday and they had nothing today

Roberts ran out of players by the 7th fucking inning

Yep but only pitching Hader every other day is beyond dumb.

I hate managers who plan things out so far ahead of time. This was my problem with Boone in the series vs Boston.

Yeah that’s always a weird strategy.

Post season managing has broken me for the last 3-4 years. Everyone completely changing how they manage.

Francona might be the worst

Try to remember that the only reason to criticize reliever management is when it fails. Otherwise, I usually hear nothing.

It didn’t fail Friday.

People still questioned it

Yeah, it didn't completely fail but it wasn't perfect either.

Either way, bullpen use is the one part of baseball that makes bar stool managers look good.

Seriously at some point, it isn't about how the pitchers are managed -- it's about professional players either failing or succeeding on their own against other equally qualified players.

Did our team choke or did their team stage a glorious rally? Depends on which team you root for.

This is two pretty even teams.

Hated to waste such a good game by Miley but certainly expected every game to be close

Have to get at least one in LA

Over the course of 162, the extreme analytics and planning things out might work out in the long run. In a short playoff series, you've gotta adjust quickly on the fly.

True, but you can make all the "right" adjustments and still not have it work out.
