The board's server will undergo upgrade maintenance tonight, Nov 5, 2014, beginning approximately around 10 PM ET. Prepare for some possible down time during this process.
So... Farrell decided to use Porcello, Price, and Rodriguez in essentially mop-up roles out of the pen? The pitching usage in this series may be the dumbest playoff management decisions I've ever seen. This is way worse than Showalter leaving Britton in the pen last year.

When he used E-Rod yesterday after using Porcello Thursday, it became obvious that he wants to use Sale in the game 4 that will never happen, which is insane given how things are with Sale right now.
I understand that Price is unable to start right now anyway, but that means you need the rest of your starters that much more. But yeah, let's move 'em all to the pen! And then use 'em in low leverage situations only! Genius!

Yeah, it's insanity. There's nothing worse than someone like Farrell, who is inept when it comes to strategy, trying to overmanage his way out of getting canned.
