He pitches a gem, Rocco pulls him after 53 pitches and Duran blows it.

Well, that didn't really matter. That part worked out fine.

And why did he pull him so soon, because SWR usually doesn't do well third time through the order. He's not reliable.

If you aren't going to trust a guy to get guys out the third time through the order, then don't start them to begin with.

You're both right here. SWR was pitching a gem...but Rocco didn't trust him to continue it and that lack of trust made him overuse the bullpen again.

SWR should be sent down. Bring up Morris and see what he's got.

We'll never know if SWR would have continued that Gem or fell apart as the game wore on....because Rocco pulled him early.


Analytics!

It wasn't analytics...he hasn't been good the third time thru consistently.

That’s a classic analytics conclusion.

No guarantees of course, but they MAY have something there.

It doesn’t change my view. He’ll have ups and downs. But I’d stick with him for a while if I was the Twins. Not that they have much choice.
