Yeah pulling Gausman now after his best inning is ridiculous.

We just used 2 of our 4 best relievers in the 5th inning of a game we are losing 3-0

This is beyond incomprehensible

Burning all the arms is hilarious when the issue is they're going to get shutout is peak 2023 Jays.

Swanson is not and never has been the "long reliever" this season. It's extremely rare for him to go more than 1 inning.

Not sure what the plan is here but any manager should have had a contingency plan considering Gausman’s track record against the Twins.

Yeah. Swanson was only going for three or so batters. He absolutely is not a long guy.

It’s funny because he was brought in as one.

Schneider is playing Hungry, Hungry Hippos while every other manager is playing 4D chess.

Can you fire a manager mid game?

Pulling Gausman was so strange. There is no game 4 to rest him for, let him get to 100 pitches and save the bullpen.

Come on bats!

Vladdy should absolutely tell off that ump. That last strike call was 100% bull####. 2-3 inches off the plate inside.

Remember when we thought Vladdy was someone like Royce Lewis?

If Bichette doesn’t at least fake a steal I’ll lose my mind.

...........and just as he was looking much better.

Schneider has made a lot of really weird moves this season, yanking Gausman today is right near the top. I still can't believe it. 73 pitches, just struck out the side. Absolutely bizzare.
