Oh, I don't know how to answer that question. I think sometimes he can leave in a starter too long and sometimes he can pull a starter too quickly. I will say that his tendency seems to be to leave a guy in too long rather than pull him too quickly.
Was it Farrell's fault that Barnes screwed up the other night? Nope. Was that the right move to make at the time? Probably. I wasn't watching that game so I couldn't say for sure.
I get angrier about missed ump calls than Farrell's utilization of the bullpen.
