He is an exponentially better manager than the guy we have in our dugout.

Oh I’m well aware.

the fun game I like to play is imagine Dusty communicates to his bosses late in the season in 2022 that he doesn’t plan to come back (or that his bosses tell him “we don’t plan to bring you back”) and we work back channels to tee up Bochy to come here instead of signing with the Rangers while we were in the middle of sweeping the Yankees in the ALCS.

Espada is an absolute idiot.

you don’t pitch any of your big 3 yesterday so they’ll be available today.

and then you trot out Montero in a 1 run game 

If we don't score a run or two in these last 6 outs it wouldn't have mattered anyway. If we do score, I'm going to be pissed.

Espada trusting Montero in a 1 run game should be grounds for immediate firing. All the momentum going into the break ruined by our shitty manager with just two horrible efforts.

The break kills any momentum (if you believe in that sort of thing) anyway.

This is just a shitty loss if it stands. We blew it with the bases loaded and no outs. It happens.

Espada needs to be fired after the season even if we win the division. We are not winning a WS with him as manager.

Just an all around bad game at the plate.

Baseball, man.

So what's the take-home lesson, kids? Relievers with stuff and control in difficult situations are preferred over those with neither. 

Also, situational hitting matters.
