Really didn't like sending out Matos for Yaz. The rookie has not been great, but he has held his own for sure, and he seems to have been getting more solid contact. I also felt there was a little spark to his game that was part of the youth exuberance responsible for the 3 game uptick. It's possible sending Matos out so Yaz could come back deflated the team a bit, not because they don't like Yaz, but Matos was one of the youngsters providing the team energy.

So sending Matos down and bringing back Yaz deflated the team so much that their three game win streak ended. Yeah. Sure. 

I bet if Matos, as Lex pointed out, had gotten a better jump on that fly last night and saved the no hitter, he might not be headed down. . . .
