So? They have enough relief pitchers with all starters doing well lately. Double headers are only 7 inning games now. He didn’t pitch at all last year and they’re not going to push him into the 110 pitch count in a 9-2 game. Manage like you want I guess but there is a reason pitchers aren’t pushed like that anymore, especially not in a game where you don’t need it anymore.
Now Borucki has been doing bad and he at this point is probably the first reliever off this team now, but if you’re playing scared with a 9-2 lead well I just don’t agree with it.
