Obviously a small sample and total recency bias, but the magician Rob Thomson moved Zach Eflin into a sometimes-closer role in the postseason, and even had the audacity to use/waste his third starter Ranger Suarez in an “all hands on deck” relief role. Eflin was coming back from an injury and not stretched out, so no real choice. Ranger is a risky high-wire act that seemed like genius when the Phils took the first game, and looks like desperation now. I guess your experience was “art (science) imitating life”?
