Cody Allen to this point in the season has been one of the worst closers in baseball. You're damn right I would have thrown Kluber out there with a chance to do something that has literally only been done 4 times in 9 innings in the history of baseball.
It'd be one thing if he showed signs of laboring through the 8th inning, but no. He was fucking dealing. I'd give him a cap of 95-100 pitches the next start or something.
