		<description><![CDATA[The other problem was Gibbons wasting Storen in game 3, warming him up multiple times and not using him, leaving him unavailable for game 4. So a lot of the blame for the workload/mismanagement has to go directly  to Gibbons, and in addition for the more than questionable decision to use Leon.

Really, with an 8 man bullpen, it&#039;s pretty inexcusable to have a day where 3 relievers are unavailable (Storen, Cecil, Chavez) without an extra inning game. 

Not impressed with the bullpen management so far and hopefully it doesn&#039;t cost the Jays many games going forward.]]></description>
