Martino seems to have a crush on Luis but his hopes will be crushed on Monday (I think). He can go make bad decisions for another team as far as I'm concerned. "the idea that McNeil had claimed the job in a way that Smith hadn't was spurious." Yeah. I didn't understand why McNeil was selected and not Dom but maybe the analytics staff saw something and decided to lock it in for the month (as Edgy said). "it was easy to forget that Luis Guillorme, on the other hand, was even still on the roster." On September 14 perhaps Luis forgot when, as I drove home from Jason Isbell, Baez tied it in the 9th and then Rojas used Reed, who was just off the IL, in the 11th when Devin Williams was available and STL scored 3. The Mets scored 2, had the tying run on 2d with 2 outs, a LHP on the mound, so Luis PH Almora instead of Guillorme because lefty/righty even though Guillorme is a far superior hitter and the Mets lost. Almora was sent down the next day and was just DFA'd and that's who the manager used in a big situation.
