Because I don’t want to forget everything, here was Snit’s decision making tonight in a 0-0 tie against the division leader

-Left Fried in for the 7th despite being over 90 pitches and have a 20+ pitch inning previously

-After a leadoff double, uses his 7th best reliever in Jacob Webb who promptly gives up a run instead of one of his top 4 guys...none of who pitched yesterday

-Instead of bringing a lefty to face Dom Smith intentionally walks him to load the bases in a 1-0 and Webb hits Pillar with two strikes

-With the bases loaded in a two run game, uses his fifth best reliever in Sean Newcomb who threw 24 pitches the day before

-Then leaves in Newk to face three consecutive righties the next inning. Newk gives up a run

-Now 3-1, with runner on second and one out, decides to replace his catcher with Pablo Sandoval...then after Pablo flys out pinch hits for Adrianza who has half the OPS+ of Contreras...who still has to come in anyways to catch for Mathis. So he wastes a bench bat and doesn’t get the better hitter up anyways

-Then still 3-1, decides to use a guy literally called up today...still hasn’t used a top 4 guy against the division leader

Worst managed game I’ve ever seen from a Braves manager

Snit is so exposed with a team or in a game that doesn't give him much room for error. Last year, Snit could have made those same decisions but we would have hit 5 HRs and it didn't matter.

See. Here’s the problem with Central time. First night here and I’m posting at 4 in the morning and I don’t drink coffee.
