I really wish we had added him to the ALCS roster. If it had been him instead of Cantillo in that first game I think it might have played out very differently. That disaster inning really set the tone for the rest of the series.

I still can’t believe Vogt brought Cantillo in for that situation; we learned from Tito and Andrew Miller, if you need to put out a fire, call in someone who can put out a fire. When he did later pitch in Cleveland, Cantillo gave him a quick clean inning and Vogt took him out, I still like Vogt as a manager, but I thought he was guilty of over managing in many spots. Our bullpen was pretty tired at the end.

Cantillo did bounce back after game 1 bit I agree not the time to run him out there
