McKae-Gate the day after..............

well the sun rose and life goes on. Both the Day and Bulletin quote Mac and McKae as saying it's a Giants player development thing and once you hit 90 pitches after 8 innings you're basically done. Mac is quoted as saying he likes his job and that's it. And that's backed up in print by the Courant today in a roundabout way in it's story about ex-Thunder manager and Connecticut local Billy Masse who was canned by the Yankees in part for using pitchers too much, most notably prospect Phillip Hughes.
Mac is also quoted as saying Anderson isn't going to save every game he's in. So true, especially after last night. But Anderson sure seems to put guys on base in his appearances more times than not despite the 11 saves and the team was pretty quick to get someone up last night although Mac stuck with Anderson. When do you hook Anderson becomes the day after question? His stats so far this season:

23 IP with 24 hits allowed and 12 BBs issued, 10 earned runs given up, teams batting .276 against him to a 3.91 ERA, 18 Ks 1 win/2 losses 11 saves, and 3 BS. Last night's two homers were the first he's given up in 19 games pitched.
