That's not why this happened. Why are you so freaking good at saying dumb [expletive]? So what situation did you want to save Rondon for? It's the 9th inning of a tied game, you are home team…when is the save situation going to happen? So either you are saying we simply can't use him in this game because he's the closer or you have to use him in a non-save situation. He has been one of our best relievers, why wouldn't you use him then? If you bring in someone else and he blows it, you'd be bitching because he didn't use Rondon. I think it would have been nice maybe to not use him for the third day in a row. The Cubs have 8,000 relievers but similar to years past there are apparently only 2-3 guys who pitch every day and 2 more who never pitch.
