The announcers keep saying that if you leave Pedro in or if you take him out it has pretty much the same result for the manager.
However, I disagree. If they take Pedro out and they bring in a reliever and the reliever blows it, I blame the reliever, not the manager. I dunno, I just think that from what I've seen with Francona here tonight, we could be doomed in the post-season again. Let's hope this is a lesson learned.
