Yup.
This WAS a most definite poor job by Q managing.
Assuming the Royals scouted the Cubs (like they’ve supposed to), if you looked at Wisdom’s splits, he has been way better against lefties this year than righties.
It’s almost like Q tried to play the lefty-lefty thing not knowing this.
Which is unforgivable at this point in the season, especially with a struggling bullpen.
You need to know your situational splits as well as your own guys.
Bringing in a righty like Harvey or just leaving Lugo in would have been the better option. [Reply]

Wisdom has been shit against both. Long threw a bad pitch and Wisdom hit it. [Reply]
