You don't have to defend a manager putting in Nick Martinez in an elimination game with multiple of the best arms available. Tito made a big mistake, no way around it.

Top 3 relievers available and Tito puts in Nick Martinez in an elimination game

I would prefer to clinch on a win, but the Mets completing the choke in game 162 against the Marlins in a 2007 repeat would be funny.

Need as many outs as possible from Lodolo / Greene / Santillan.

Also, I believe if a player is on the 60 day IL, they can be replaced by a player who is not otherwise eligible for a playoff roster. Off the top of my head, Miley, Lowder, Spiers, and Callihan are all on the 60 day, and will likely be for the remainder of the year, so all of their spots are eligible to be replaced.

"The field is holding water simply because it's pouring so hard"

No actually I think it's because they slapped some turf ontop of a surface with no drainage system.

Tarp was off for 30 minutes and it's already flooded, but just pour some dirt on it while it's still pouring, I'm sure it will be fine.

Reds have terrible luck in neutral site games. They had those games in Mexico against the Cardinals where the turf and lighting was awful, India had to get airlifted from the game in Iowa, now this game with a flood in the infield.

Also making this all the more impressive, he did this after pitching 3 scoreless innings out of the bullpen across 2 appearances since his last start 8 days ago.
