In a season full of pathetic losses, this might be the most pathetic of all of them. And yet another loss when they score 6+ runs.
What is he saving his "good relievers for" the next game? Worrying about the next game instead of the current game! Robertson has pitched twice in the last 10 days. Only 13 pitches yesterday. Ottavino has pitched just twice in the last week. He has been an awful manager! I mean this team can't string together wins! Can't win series!

I expected nothing, but the fact that he explicitly said that he can't sustain losing this much money indefinitely is. I think, telling. Expect the payroll to go down considerably next year.
This team is such a fucking joke. And brilliant managing in the ninth - lefthanded hitters are batting .119 against the reliever brought in, so they have three straight lefty hitters put up (including pinch hitting Vogelbach for Canha), because he's a righthanded pitcher. Blow it up, Stevie. See if you can get anything for Scherzer and Verlander, and feel free to trade anyone other than Alonso if you think it would make the team better. And of course, get rid of Eppler and Showalter, as they are less than useless.
Oh come on man!!!!!!!! You have a pitcher struggling to throw strikes. Why are you swinging at everything? I'm tired of losing!
You can't make this shit up. Once Alonso made the error, it was inevitable that they would be losing soon.
