Yeah all those numbers say is that Tobias struggled as a SP this year which is hugely irrelevant to him pitching out of the bullpen today. If we want to agenda post with small sample sizes. Tobias as a RP had a .286 OPS against coming into today.

So I'm not allowed to have an opinion that differs from yours, even if I have stats to support it, because it's an "agenda post".

 Got it.

I mean those stats just lack context so yeah using them to justify that he was about to blow up due to what I assume is fatigue is just cherry picking.
 

1. Those pitches are almost entirely from when he was starting which isn’t relevant to him as a RP

2. 25-60 is a massive range of pitches for a guy who was never going to touch 40-60 pitches yesterday

Also this completely ignores that Murphy said Myers would have faced Marte if the error didn’t happen. Clearly this superficial pitch limit was not something that was on the Brewers mind.
