[QUOTE="Golden Tornadoes, post: 1009847, member: 5881"] I 100% agree with your thinking on Fried, but I also think about managing innings and pitch count this early in the season. I'd rather trust one of the best bullpen's in baseball to finish off a game in April than ask Fried to go back to back 90+ pitches, 7 IP+ games that could possibly risk him in October. Does it suck? Absolutely, but pitchers are throwing harder and with more break than ever before which puts them at a higher risk for injury now than even 20 years ago. Fried especially has had injury problems with blisters the past couple of years, so if Snit thought it best to pull him out in order to keep him fresh, I can't really fault him for that. It just didn't work out this time. Speaking of, where was Iglesias? I completely agree with Minter being Minter in the 9th. Dude can flat out pitch the 7th and 8th, but you give him the 9th and it's like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're going to get. [/QUOTE]
