Everyone on AN seems to hate Ricardo Rincon. Personally I gave the dude some slack cuz I've seen him get big outs in big games, that was of course untill this Blue Jays series when the man couldnt throw a strike.
I can understand that Macha has come to rely on Rincon to get lefties out, especially since he's been the lone lefty in the pen for a long time. But i ask the question, what about Flores?
Rincon was inneffective in Game 1, yet out he came for Game 2. In Game 2 he couldn't throw a strike so when you need a left for Game 3, it was the perfect opportunity to give Flores a chance to get some big outs, instead of trotting out a reliever who had struggled the last 2 previous days.
If Flores is on the roster, let him pitch against some tough lefties in tough situations and see what he can do.
Also, Ryan Glynn has no place on the roster. A main reason why the bullpen seems overworked is because Macha only uses Rincon, Calero, Duke, and Street, basically knocking his 7 man pen down to a 4 man pen.
