Sitting this kid for a quarter and a half isn't going to suddenly make some magical switch flip on.

Rex had a chance to send a real message by either moving on from the Sanchez era permanently, or at least going with McElroy for the final 4 games and make it clear to Mark that he'll be involved in an open competition for the job next year since we're basically stuck with him. No more handouts.

Instead, we witness the same coddling of Sanchez that we've come to expect from this front office.
