    Perez is Playing a great game, let’s take him out after 5. Makes no sense.

    It surprised the TV announcers too, but it is that stupid 3 rd time through the order metric that managers implement automatically regardless of whether the pitcher is cruising.

    Should Cora have left Perez in his last game into the 6th inning?
    He was "cruising" with 5 IP, 3 H and 1 ER. Sound familiar? In the 6th he let up 3 singles and we went from tied 1-1 to down 3-1.

    How about his start before the last one? 5 IP 4H and 0 ER (cruising even better than tonight), then comes the 6th: Reach on Error and HR, and we're down 3-1, instead of tied 1-1.

    His 6th inning ERA is 20.25.

    I'm okay with being against it, but "makes no sense?"

    Had they left him in and lost the lead, we'd be posting these numbers and saying it makes no sense leaving him in.

    Time for a big rally.

    Start by getting some men on base.

    Can we just start the rally by cutting both Franchy and Bobby totally cooked and waste of roster spaces.

    With Perez, it's not the 3rd time through: it's the 6th inning. (Same with Pivetta, except Pivetta sucks third time through.)

    ERA
    0.00 5th inning
    20.25 6th innings

    OPS Against
    .687 first time
    .858 second time
    .451 third time

    Pivetta
    3.00 ERA in 5th
    15.00 in 6th

    .539 first PA
    .440 second
    1.125 third

    Do you know what the word "cut" means? You should. We've told you over an over, yet you keep saying it.

    Cut = DFA

    In my opinion, when a pitcher is cruising through 5 you leave him in regardless of his track record. Doesn’t matter, bats were ice cold and we deserved to lose. Such be life.

    I'm not arguing we should have taken him out. My point is about it "not making sense." His history shows he falters after 5 IP. There is some sense in the idea of taking him out.

    Had we done so his previous two games, we might have 2 more wins.

    Perez has been a bigger surprise than Pivetta, in my eyes.

    Without these two, we'd be bummin' out and likely at each other's throats.

    Not shock at all. Can they ever get a sweep? Now they get a big home series against a very good As team right now.
