Meh, maybe. It’s easy in hindsight, but Smyly pitched a clean 4th and had Vosler up as the #8 hitter in a L-L matchup with the Cubs having no lefties in the pen. I think I’d have let him face Vosler too.I thought that he likely broke his wrist last night as long as he was being looked at.
Ross hung with Smyly too long too, IMO. Should have brought Thompson in sooner. Thompson ended up pitching great but no win came of it. Now he probably won't be able to be used for another game or two. Lose, lose.
