This makes sense. Not!

[Palanion]

I just need rationale here, but I suspect there is none.

First playoff game. Rested pitching staff.
Settings:
Burke (setup v.R)
Reardon (setup v.L)
McClure (closer)
Roberge (no settings)
Closer (maximize)
Relief (aggressive)

Floyd Youmans pitches into the 10th, tied 4-4.
Tim Burke (setup v.R) is called in the 10th to get out of jam against a RHB (G. Bell). He does.
Bottom of the 11th. Due up for Blue Jays: Whitt (L), Mulliniks (L), Garcia (R), Upshaw (L). [b:b58f6f7d54]Burke stays in?!?!?![/b:b58f6f7d54] Ideal spot for Reardon, dammit.


Side question:
HAL runs for Fitzgerald in top of 11th with Winningham. Keeps Winningham in game to play CF. He is set to be my PR and def. rep for CF, so all is good there. Bilardello comes in to replace Fitzgerald behind the plate. Ok.
So, who in their right mind would ALSO move Webster to RF, replacing Dawson - the better fielder? Dawson is due 2nd in the next inning, which will now be Bilardello! Whereas Webster's spot in the batting order just passed by...
:roll: :x
