I'd take the opposite view. Probably a bridge too far to have sent Jack back out there this inning at all.. Hinch got a little gready there. OTOH, Jones need to make that out. Holton gave up a ground ball that's an easy out with the IF at normal depth.

Bringing the infield in like that is a desperate move that says you may not be able to score any (more) runs. It very often leads to big innings.

I feel more secure with Montero out there than Hanifee. JFC.

He should never have sent Flaherty out there for the 6th inning. And using Jones in RF was/is a huge mistake. He's our 5th outfielder.

At least Torkelson got a meaningless HR. Eight runs should usually be enough to win. Oh well. 

Yep, toady was actually biggest output of the weekend. Gonna lose some games, but hate to waste that.  I usually think “ 8 is enough”. 🥁

A team that is 24 games over .500 with a pitcher who is 7-13.  Flaherty has almost 25% (24.1%) of his teams losses.  It's time to ship him to the bullpen or maybe as a 1 or 2 inning opener for someone.

Just turned this on. Why did Hinch leave Jack in to give up 8 runs ?

Because he is smarter than everyone else...just ask him and he'll tell you. No clue why he brought him out to start the 6th.

Hinch is playing 3D Star Trek chess while everyone else is playing CandyLand.
