I say if its a 1 run game no, let him get some confidence with a win, and if we blow the lead...its not on him.

I agree. He needs to get a win. Now that we are up 2, though, I think Acta will trot him out.

Thats the thing though. When it was a 1 run game, it would be tough to chance it. We all know Fausto...and we got 6 damn good innings. Dont ruin a rare good outing by Fausto by allowing him to blow it!

95 was a crazy year. I swear, at least 3 games a week, we get a "on this date" and it is from the 95 season!

I wouldnt have been upset with Act allowing Fausto to go in the 7th until a batter reached. But I do applaud his decision to take him out before he could blow his good start as well. I probably would have yanked him with the lead after 6 as well, to try and get him a win and keep the confidence of a very strong start in tact.

I appreciate Santanas effort to knock Joe Mauer out for the rest of the series more than the play he actually made.

Repost. Yes. I'm that confident. If we lose I'll never start another thread again.

Said it before and Ill say it again. Incredibly undervalued piece of that trade, and a HUGE get. Not sure why the Mets gave him up after some solid years with them.

Mets, Mariners, Tribe. Forget the players (12 in total). But we shipped Franklin GOOOOOT to Seattle for Valbuena and also got Smith from the Mets. It was back before the 2009 season.
