These decisions aren't made by the manager.  Especially a rookie manager. This involves the GM due to contracts, money, agents etc. The best shot of the night was seeing Soriano on the mound with Williams pacing in the dugout. Clearly he, Knorr, and McCatty were stressed out and have been. Ni way they don't see what everyone else sees. There is a reality about dealing with a high paid closer who has had the role. The business side has a lot to say. It is like benching a quarterback.

Think of how stressed he makes us! I can't imagine how they feel.
