I get it’s a game thread and people overreact, but the criticism of Vogt over his lineup moves after the start he’s had is just crazy. We’re really going to criticize using Gaddis in the 8th when he had been one of the best relievers in the MLB before today, and had been the setup man with no issues (and no complaining) for over a week before today? Even today, he allowed 2 runs on a ground rule double which hit the line and a pop fly that somehow dropped. Not a great outing by any means, but a couple of different breaks and we view the outing completely differently.
And before anyone forgets, people were complaining about Barlow until the last week with good reason. Bottom line, the bullpen won’t be perfect all year but I don’t see any valid reason why that was bad process. Maybe you yank Gaddis with runners at 2nd and 3rd 1 out, but arguing against him in the 8th inning is results vs process.
And I think Vogt deserves a lot of trust with the way he’s managed to push all the right buttons so far. Even when I think the process is poor, such as PHing Laureano for Brennan in the 11th, so far they’ve been working out.
