So all the decent relievers are used up and it’s tied in the eighth inning. This is what happens when the overmanagers get their wish.
Should have saved O’Brien for the 14th inning?

Do you think it has more to do with the fact they've given up 16 hits, 2-3 with 3 RBI's to pinch hitters, and a refusal to miss bats?

Or is it the "over managers."

Ironically, it’s tied cause the decent relievers got beat.

That’s baseball.

But Oli used them in high leverage situations and went to his best option with the game on the line. That’s good managing.

They are 7 pitchers deep and it’s not even the ninth inning. Eventually, you’ve gotta trust someone and risk taking the L. It’s not Game 7 of the LCS.

The Mariners are on their fourth pitcher and they actually have a major league starting rotation, so they won’t have to cover 12-15 outs every day.

The problem is roster construction more than managing issue. Carrying too many players that can't be trusted
