It is easy to blame manager Will Venable when the Chicago White Sox bullpen blows a six-run lead, like on Tuesday night in Atlanta.
The White Sox had a commanding 10-4 lead over the Braves, and were on course to win the series. The bullpen processed to surrender seven runs in the final two innings and the White Sox lost 11-10.
Venable is the guy who makes the call to the pen, and it is easy to point the finger at the decision maker, rather than the pitchers themselves.
Yeah, mostly on the manager, not all the terrible relievers.
