Usually, I wouldn't either, except in Street's case.

1. Since our good buddy Buck is too stupid to realize how good Street is, Huston only got TWO innings of work in the whole WBC. Bam, just like that he's behind the curve for the season.

2. Street threw 25 pitches the day before, while the team was down three runs. He got pulled then! LOL @ Macha. You can pull Street when the team is down 3 runs, but not when he gives up a game tying blast to Tex?

Oh, and FWIW, Street didn't have it yesterday, It probably had something to do with the horrible umpire squeezing him (the ball Texeiria hit out was strike FIVE imo), but he still wasn't making his pitches. He hung the cr@p outta that slider to Mark, and he paid for it.
