Ugh. So close to getting out of it then you gift them a run.

[Rynodb1]

Threw 6 f***ing balls that at bat. 

[Smokinitup420]

Maybe walker should’ve sat the fuk down n let him just pitch , he was in a groove 

[ComeTogether]

s*** Little is in ..not

Flu...thank God 

[Masterbather]

If Fish just had a little more ability to throw strikes he could be elite. 

Never threw Grisham a strike that whole at bat 

[glory]

Bringing Little in this spot is insanity.

[Jays24]

This homeplate ump has been money most of the game.

[Landry_25]

Little does it again 

[Spanky__99]

Oof... 

[Smokinitup420]

Bateman don’t dive for s***? 

[ComeTogether]

f*** off 

[Jays24]

This is on JS on keeping Soriano in 2 batters too long and Okamoto not knowing how to take charge on a damn bunt attempt.

From the bullpen? 

[gruber9292]

This is all on JS as Fisher should have started the sixth inning. Zero instincts.. 

[ComeTogether]

3 runs not insurmountable

We watching the same game?

[Stangstag]

Bit egregious letting Soriano back out for the 6th there and then letting him load the bases. Oh well

After 95 pitches giving up 2ER over 5 innings being inconsistent all day, that should have been it for Soriano today. Horrible decision by JS, especially with an off day tomorrow. 

Agreed, he looked shaky in the 5th. Not sure why he was given the rope to load the bases in the 6th.

Maybe not, sportsnet showed little in after fisher walked in a run I’m just checking in with the app

[glory]

Not watching the game. Gameday had Little in the game. Fluharty at least made sense there. I guess all white LH relievers look the same to whoever handles the Gameday scoring.

I don't understand this either. Soriano was sitting mid to high 90's pitch count coming out of the 5th and this was a perfect opportunity to remove him and allow him to end on a high note. Schneider takes heat for not allowing his starters to go deeper into games but this outing illustrated perfectly how it's better to remove a starter a little too soon vs leaving him in too long.

I think most people were looking at it like a "take the money and run" type of event after the fifth. To allow him back in the game after 95 pitches to boot is one thing, but to sit there and watch him load the bases is one for the ages. 

[james jones]

Jays traded Arjun for Soriano?? Gross.

That felt a lot like how Schneider would leave Hoffman in the game far too long and leave an essentially impossible mess for the rest of the bullpen to clean up.

Or you just use common sense to see when a pitcher is dealing vs a pitcher struggling and make your decisions based off that...

Handling a pitching staff isn't one of JS' strengths that's for sure.

Nice K Little on the big man
