When we lose this game you can chalk it up to Managerial Indifference.

DFA this dude Hazen. You are going to have to handle this like you did with Torey's stupid loyalty last time.

A wise manager would have had two guys up and if Sewald gave up a run he was done.

Lovullo/Hazen are idiots for continuing to trot Sewald out there. He has nothing and is a mental wreck. But gool ol' Torey will say post game - "He's my closer in spite of all the blown saves - I believe in him"

Need to talk to him about going on the IL to work things out. Dude has been really bad but he’s also been pretty good at times. We definitely can’t afford to keep giving him the ball until he figures it out.

No doubt.

Not sure what closers he could have gotten - Puk will likely take over

Ryan Thompson has been pretty dependable since he’s been here. Didn’t we get him off waivers or something!?

That’s been a good get.

I just heard Suarez say that Thompson was already getting loose in the 8th so I guess someone was pretty close to ready to go when sewald went in .

Sewald's Folly has to go to the IL now - whether he is injured or not. You know that Lovullo/Hazen won't DFA him - which is what should happen. He's mentally done and doesn't have any closer "stuff" left.
