He is in new innings/season territory, so he has both been pulled early, and usually in appropriate game situations with runners on.
This time round he escaped a bases loaded no outs second inning, then let some in during the 3rd and was pulled.

Pretty sure he does go: #1 and #2, although i have no direct evidence.
So... you admit he's managing?
Please give him a second chance. If not for him, then for another chance for you to refine the fine art of biting sarcasm?
