GDT 5/19/24: Braves vs Padres - Sunday night showdown

Looking at the movement of his pitches. Take a look. His current nice looking stats like xERA are not sustainable when most of his pitches are flat.

Well so far in the small sample size, no one is hitting the 4 seamer with a .190 xwOBA... his statcast data actually looks pretty filthy to me in the small sample. I don't think you can make it as simple as "his pitches are flat."

what would be nice right now is quality role players to help this team as players get healthy and other players struggle to get right. Wonder why AA wasn't able to sign any good bench players this year. Hey but twit did sleep walk his way through the playoffs pushing the manager for dummies check list.

Careful, it's frowned upon around here to mention Dino-snit's shortcomings. The apologists will come for your head.

But you're right...Snit is a mediocre or worse manager gifted the best roster in the history of the Braves franchise. AA is the gem, not the coaches.

Gotcha. They don’t look that bad though.
