If the Braves don't go to the playoffs, we're going to be looking very hard at 1-6 at best at home vs the Giants and Rockies, and losing a series to the Orioles.
Aggression with prospects is fine, but being stupid is not. There should be a way to find a happy medium between a Pirates like idea of being overly cautious with prospects and going stupidly fast with prospects.
BTW, those who gave me crap a few days ago for complaining about snit's trust in Jackson in key spots can kiss my ass. This is what I was opposing.
I think it's dumb to have Ender bunt on the first pitch and the guy hasn't been close to throwing a strike!
Aside from the Cubs game that should’ve been called, we really haven’t had very many heartbreaking games this year. I guess we were overdue for a series like this.

Another thing... Ryan flaherty got an AB in a game where flowers and Duvall didn't. I don't think much of Duvall, but he's an AS compared to RF
I just don’t get not going with your best pitchers in a huge game like this.

Poor Folty! Tomorrow is a must win on a quick turnaround, (7-4) sounds way better than a (6-5) homestand at least psychologically.
Snit is a great clubhouse manager. However, I'm not sure he can go against analytical guys like Roberts and Maddon in October and win. I hope I'm wrong.

I hope Minter's blister problem isn't serious.
