Why did they bring Holmes in, in the 8th? The top of Rays order was coming up, was the right call. Asking Holmes to get a 5 out save in June is terrible decision in my opinion.

That was an Eckersley strike three!

It's not a terrible decision if he was warming up before the inning started in order to be brought in hot once Cole gives up the no hitter. Holmes was rushing trying to get ready in time. Not his routine. That's a managerial error that cannot be explained for me.

This team has a double digit lead, they are easily going to make the playoffs, so the goal is to have this pen ready for October, not overextend their closer in June. It's just stupid baseball that desperate teams do, not teams with huge division leads, like the Yankees. Plus, the Yankees do have other good relievers.

Boone has said that after Chappy gets back, Holmes probably won’t close, but will come in at key moments, whether closing or not. I’m not sure he would have pitched the ninth unless with the short leash philosophy… Bit Chapman is not back. I think he rushed himself into this move. I was hoping for King…

I just don't want this pen gassed in October, like we've seen in the past, there's no reason for it with this staff.
