You haven’t given a valid reason, you made a pathetic appeal to authority. Your position is that you pitched a little in college, and kept your toe in the game since, so you are uniquely qualified among us here to comment on managerial decisions in the World Series. Not only that but it is beneath you to even entertain the arguments of such neophytes. Did we all miss something? How many MLB games have you played in or coached?
You have exactly zero experience managing professional players or games, same as the rest of us here as far as I know much less making decisions about how to handle the mental game of a 10 year veteran player in the World Series. Yet you want to position yourself as some greater authority on how those decisions should be made.
What a load of faux ivory tower horseshit? While your experience may add some minor weight to your opinion, and don’t get it wrong it’s exactly that, an opinion and nothing more, you don’t know anything more about how or why this decision was made than anyone else here. If you have convinced yourself that your level of baseball experience gives you some far superior insights on this particular subject you are living with a profound delusion of grandeur.
