He hasn't gone 8 all season long so I kinda understand this. A little. Still, especially with a blow out, I would have kept him in until he gave up a hit. On another note Derek Shelton is getting fired in Pittsburgh for sure!!!

Yeah he definitely should have stayed in for the 8th. They probably being cautious with Steele on IR.

Right. Especially with them in the wild card hunt. They probably didn't wanna go to a six man rotation or have a bullpen game so they took him out to make sure he makes his next start.

Damn

^^^^

It's a complicated situation with these pitchers now and been like that for decades. Those old unwritten rules just don't apply.

With the salary cap, contracts, use of statistics, schedule, pitch clock, rule changes, new owners, media deals, injuries etc etc

It's LITERALLY not the same game we grew up with.
