Yes it worked out absolutely amazing. And ofc I'm fucking happy it did. It's just such a huge gamble. I hate Nola but I like him better than Sanchez in game 2. Concentrate on winning game 2. You win game 2, it doesn't matter what happened on game 3. Your way, you lose game 2, the series is pretty much over.
But it's not over even if they lost today...because you still have Nola.
If they lost today with Nola...then they'd be screwed lol. Sanchez is an entirely different pitcher at home vs the road. Nola is pretty consistent home or away. It matters where Sanchez pitches, but it doesn't matter where Nola pitches because he's a playoff veteran.
Use Sanchez where he's good, at home, like they did today. Don't ask him to make his playoff start on the road in NY. I absolutely love the decision to give him his postseason debut at home. He did well too.
