April 28, 200422 yr ok, you're team's up by 5 in a non-save situation, but your closer might be getting a little rusty, then again, you don't want ot burn him out, and, after all, it is coors field. What would you do?

What would you do? Benny warmed up in the pen before Choi hit the homer, (i assume, i wasnt listening) so it was better for him to just get the work in.
April 28, 200422 yr Once he had already warmed, it made sense to use him. Plus, the only 1 inning of work for Phelps allows him to pitch again tomorrow if needed.
April 28, 200422 yr At the time I thought it was a dumb move to use Benitez but hey, whatever works. The previous posts compel me to change my mind.
April 28, 200422 yr as long as we got the win thats all i care about. win it today, worry about tommorow, tommorow.
April 29, 200422 yr I think Mckeon made the right choice. But if he had gotten into anything close to a jam I would have pulled him.
