I say we wait more than two outings and one blow save to throw Holland to the dogs. Jesus this board is crazy sometimes. Dude has great stuff when he can locate....and yes, not one single pitcher can locate every night, this is just baseball. And Yost was right in leaving him in. You don't put in a guy who isn't warmed up with the bases juiced.

As long as Yost is ok with losing games like this then sure. I am not even really mad about this game, this is just what the Royals do.

This loss isn't on Yost! He put in a very capable closer who didn't have it tonight. Again, this is baseball. If Hollands has a few more outings like it, then yes, not removing him from the role would be on Yost. But not tonight, that was on Holland.

Yost saw he didn't have it. Yost sat on his hands, the Royals lost. It's not big deal this is one game, however this IS what the Royals do.

You continue to defy logic. Somehow I thought 2013 might hold out hope for you. Sadly, I was too optimistic.

Yost isn't a good manager. Holland didn't have it tonight. Those 2 together made for a good ole fashion Royals loss. Gotta get tomorrow's game to hopefully not let this loss linger and turn into last April's losing streak.

This is what I'm worried about. This was a flashback to Broxton's ****up last year.

Don't be foolish. I'm not a Royal fan, but I watched the 9th. If he gets the call on Utley that he should have got Royals win. If you have confidence in your closer you stick with him. Holland has amazing stuff as evidenced by the 2 K's before the jam shot gapper.
