If you're going to take Latos out in this situation at least put a better hitter in.
Latos gonna have to do it himself.
Well write this game off. Parra set to come in.
I stick with Latos. This is an AWFUL gambit. Awful.

Hannahan, oh boy. Might as well have called Valdez.
Jack Hannahan hitting for Latos. We just replaced a .139 batter with a .208 batter. If he gets a hit, maybe a good idea. Otherwise, Latos had two innings left in him...88 pitches tonight.

I know he gets second-guessed a lot, but this was a purely boneheaded decision. Terrible.

Don't have a problem with the move but wow this bench is limited.
