I could dispute that in general, but most importantly with regard to the roster, Carlos is using two guys, from an already short bench, to replace one. They send Taylor up for Baty and then put in Wendle. So you lose Baty in the seventh or eighth, you take your best reserve outfielder's glove out of the game, you take your best reserve baserunner's legs out of the game, and then maybe you get Wendle up in a game situation in the ninth or tenth, in this case against an even tougher lefty that he couldn't even bunt to a wide-open right side against. Yeah this whole thing is shitty. Let Baty hit.
