The Atlanta Braves

[vols 30]

Amazing to me how Brian Snitger has become a "dumb" manager to so many. OK, experts...just WHO would you want to replace him?

Never said anything about replacing him. He just makes dumb decisions sometimes. Tinkering with the lineup for the 1st game was just another example.

I love to take shots at Snit as much as the next guy but that lineup was not his

 

[GAVol]

For the record Snit isn’t a good manager and I’ve said that for six straight divisional titles and I’ll say the same thing if they win six more

Results are all that matter.

Playoff baseball is so stupid

It really is a roll of the dice. Saw a stat today that in Game 1 the Braves had the same hard hit percentage that they averaged for 162 games . . . and got shutout.

This.

If what happened in Game 1 happened in a game against the Phils on June 12, everybody goes "Eh, had our number today, go win tomorrow."

Baseball has to be the sport that is the most different between the regular season and the postseason.

BTw that was a strike.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Talk about getting squeezed

 

[GAVol]

Complete BS. Had Trea Turner struck out looking and 3 pitches later he scores.

 

[Notorious B.E.N]

Down 1-0 in the 1st? Pull Max, sit all the starters, let's save them for game 3!

 

[GAVol]

Lol… and that gets called a strike.

Just crap luck. Phillies BABIPing Fried

He does but I’ll say that all those decisions (or most) that I thought were dumb paid off year before last.

I just don’t get how every time the Phillies make the playoffs they go from playing .500 ball to some kind of juggernaut.

They underperformed all year and they’re built for the playoffs with the top heavy rotation and bullpen

They are making pretty good contact

 

[hUTch2002]

Yeah but it pisses me off and it seems to happen every year they make it.

 

[GAVol]

Did us a big favor not challenging Rosario’s arm.

 

[GAVol]

Yeah. Nothing cheap about the last hit.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

I can't tell if Max is rusty or the finger just isn't there.

 

[hUTch2002]

Boy Fried needed that.

 

[raw dog]

Well that ain’t bad. Max will settle in and start missing some bats.

 

[hUTch2002]

I can't tell if Max is rusty or the finger just isn't there.

Either way if he gets in trouble again they have to pull him. So far he’s not fooling anyone.
