Can someone explain to me why Riojas got scored the win for that game?

Spencer didn't go five innings.

Riojas the pitcher of record as Texas never lost the lead.

Riojas needs to be a bridge guy, not a finish-the-game guy.

It's unfortunate he's had 2 rough innings around 5 other innings so far where he has been pretty much dominant.

Riojas should have been on a short leash in that inning or never started it.

No reason for him to be in there after two hits lead off the inning.

Not sure what Schloss's philosophy on it is, but maybe he's just trying to stretch him as much as he can in the early part of the season so we can get more out of him later.

Running him out there expecting him to get you 14 outs is not good management by Max and Schloss. Ruger shouldn’t be touching the ball before the 7th inning. There is more than enough arms in that pen to find 3 outs here and there to get the ball to the 7th or 8th.

Not exactly the best situation or weather trying to stretch a pitcher out.

Or, maybe it's really damn early in the season and they're seeing how guys handle certain situations or what their limits are.

Just a thought.

Bingo. Looks like Schloss is gonna do crazy shit in the non con to figure this team out. I already hate all the different lineups but I get it.

I was thinking more from a confidence/mentality standpoint, not a physical one.

It's February. We just need to win.

Get them again tomorrow.

Unfortunately I will be at my daughter's sixth birthday party but I expect you guys to keep me informed on what is going on.

Can't hit it much better than that.
Wind chill must be brutal at the Disch today.

Wasn’t bad until around bottom of the 6th, top 7. Wind picked up just a bit and then it got cold. Phone app said “feels like” 29. Pretty sure it was that or colder.
