You probably would have had to slow things down because he just kind of started warming up. voice-verified
You might have had to do the Pete Walker fake heart to heart thing to make it happen. voice-verified
I think that would have been voice-verified
a logical thing to do, but they believed in Rodgers. voice-verified
He was able to get that final out. voice-verified
And this pair has really carried the team for a lot of the season. voice-verified
I mean, he is not allowed to run to come across as a Toronto Blue Jay yet. voice-verified
So as long as you're in that position, it's pretty hard to complain. voice-verified
We'll have to see over a longer period of time. voice-verified
But as much as there's been an emphasis on this group of trusted relievers at the back end of the bullpen, you need other guys in kind of that medium leverage range, or guys that you're comfortable when the occasion calls for it, when the other guys are taxed to put it. voice-verified
In. voice-verified
Like even the fluhardies and the fishers of the world, guys you are going to all the time, you're basically only going to them once every two games. voice-verified
So you have to think about half the time, a lot of these players are not going to be available. voice-verified
And that's the juggling that a manager does. voice-verified
But it's easy to say, okay, the script is Miles to Rogers to Varland. voice-verified
Well, okay, that can be the script half the time approximately, but a lot of the other times it's not. voice-verified
Not going to be. voice-verified
And the best way to get yourself away from that and not have to worry about it is just by winning ballgames by a significant margin. voice-verified
But because the offense hasn't been there except recently, to be fair to them, they're playing in so many of these low scoring games that you need other options outside that core high leverage group. voice-verified
And SeaWorld seems to be the preferred option kind of in that periphery right now. voice-verified
