What I don't get is that Cotts appears to remain below Marte in Ozzie's eyes, since Marte usually pitches later in ballgames than Cotts.
Yet Marte has issued 30 walks and given up 38 hits in around 43 innings.
Somehow this hasn't cost us big time yet, but I'll pull my hair out if Ozzie has the same warped subsitution rotation in the postseason.
Ozzie is going on player history when it comes to Marte and Cotts. Marte has been ultra dominate in the past, where this is Cott's first great year. Cotts >>>> Marte, yet the fact that Marte has been a shutdown lefty reliever in the past keeps him ahead of Cotts on the depth chart.
