Actually Vogey is a great guy to have up when the pitcher can't throw strikes.
Really? Well, true, he likes to look at pitches... but he's really lost at sea now... exposed and unable to adjust he's now hitting .088

If Swanson had thrown a normal inning with 15-20 pitches and maybe allowed a base runner I would get it. But 7 pitches, all strikes and you pull him. Just totally over thinking it.
Like I've said before. I think Servais is mostly a puppet. I'm not sure the reasons behind what they do with the bullpen, but I don't think it's just Servais' doing the reasoning.

Williams needs four outs for his second save. Looks like a horse heading home who can smell the hay in the barn.

Yep they have it all scripted and SS isn't allowed to actually use is brain when something like a 7 pitch inning goes down. Just has to do what he was told.

I didn’t post during the game today, and the Ms won in spectacular fashion. I should continue this trend. :lol:

No qualifiers needed here. He looked strong from the first pitch on. Excellent velocity and movement and once he got his control pretty much was unhittable.
