Base it off of your fans freaking out on a message board?
Not to mention the long term damage of forcing Chapman to get up and get down in the bullpen and throwing meaningless pitches in the pen.
Either way you cut it, the Reds obviously need to get better relief pitchers. That has nothing to do with a manager wanting a guy to get a save.
Isn't dusty baker known for destroying pitchers arms
