I feel that ultimately the choice should be his. That's ridiculous. Terry Collins is the manager. He makes the decisions. Harvey, like pretty much every pitcher in baseball, will always insist that he can pitch longer. It's the manger's decision to decide when to pull a pitcher or leave him in. Collins made the wrong decision tonight based on crappy organizational policy. But in general, we'd crucify and manager who lets the pitcher tell him he wants to stay in the game. You don't think Terry had to hear from Sandy and Jeffy? Terry was hamstrung by Harvey's implicit approval of Boras' three ring circus.
