What's sad is even when this team was bad we had better GDTs than this, the management of this team is embarrassing and if Fredi isn't canned at the end of the season everyone but McDowell should be shipped out. WE have no hope, and it doesn't look the players believe it either.

And it only took reply to get to wallowing in self pity. What's sad is the Nats fans think more of the braves than braves fans do.

Why would you ever intentionally walk BJ? They got what they deserved.
It's not that bad. There's only like 10 pitchers hitting better than BJ.

That's because the Nats are the Braves' bitch.Originally Posted by cajunrevenge
I think the world of the Braves. We have a fantastic core of players in Jason, Freeman, Justin, Gattis, Simmons, Julio, Wood, Minor, and Kimbrel. We have an idiot for a manager who has put our 2 worst hitters (simmons and BJ) at our 2 most important offensive positions (batting first and second) I mean how long it took him to bat Jason leadoff was embarrassing. Instead we batted him 5th so BJ could try his hand at leading off.

Cards up 5-2 over Mil.
Heyward not at leadoff all year isnt the SOLE reason we're inconsistent as hell.
The lineup from the get go should have been
Jason
Justin
Freddie
Gattis
Who cares.

Nearly every fan base thinks their manager is the worst. If you think the next manager will be competent you are going to be highly disappointed. The Nats manager sucks too. This is the same **** as people who couldn't wait for Cox to retire. It's just an endless cycle of hate. Accept that we will likely never have a manager who manages how we want him to.

Perhaps, but we always won with Cox. The difference is gigantic. I know nothing really about Williams, haven't been really paying attention to him, but the Nats have been playing out their asses so his job is easy. Their lineup is filled with above average hitters. They have 3 hitters with 100+ PA, Espinosa, Lobaton, and Frandsen. Braves have 8. Nats whole lineup is better, their pitching is better. Is that cause of Williams? Probably not. But the truth is that the Braves are underperforming their expected wins, like the Nationals, that's usually indicative of a manager issue. Conversely the Giants are massively outperforming theirs, indicative of a good manager.

Fredi is a joke, he brings Pena in for defense but puts him at second which is his weakest position. Pena is strong at third and Gosselin is good at both third and second. So if want the strongest defense you switch Pena to third and move Gosselin to second. Both are strongest at those spots.

What a surprise. Gutless wonder arguing a called strike.
He shouldn't send Wood out there for the 8th.
He left him in too long costing us in Pittsburgh too. So nothing new.
I have a bad feeling about this inning.
I come home to see this... come on Walden. Freaking Gattis not at least getting a sac-fly kills us. Just put an the ball into play.
This is comical.

Bunch of losers. Who didn't see that coming?
