Well, when you have an unreliable pen whose 6th and 7th inning guys seem to get one or two outs and then blow up, I do not think taking a chance was a terrible idea. I do think Black left him in too long--maybe to prove a point? The Rockies desperately needed someone to shore up the bullpen and we got a catcher whose...	unbiased	5709969	1
