    I’m sure Enscheff will attack me Snit gave this one away because he’s an idiot. He leaves a guy struggling to pitch in to face one of the game’s best hitters before letting a lefty specialist face a righty in a high-leverage situation. That’s literally wasting opportunities

    Did I hear that right—Folty has given up eight earned runs in four starts this year? Seriously WTF

    I guess I am watching a different game because folty in the game was the worst matchup possible. Prn was getting a lot ofnise tonight. That's been obvious since inning 3

    Sooo if Folty gets shut down after tonight what do we do. Does Touki get a shot, Newc when he’s ready, someone else, or do we bring in someone? I don’t necessarily think Folty’s done but something isn’t right. I’ve heard the bone spurs theory and it makes sense.

    You guys see go terrible Taylor is? He's so bad that folty and Blevins can get him. Bc folty got him and Sanchez, snit thought folty could face turner, Eaton, and rendon. Snit is a complete moron

    Do you bring a righty or lefty in to face Turner top of the 5th? I think it is defensible to let Folty face him then bring in the lefty.

    Newk apparently will be cleared soon. We have Wilson availableni n AAA. Imo gausman has a phantom injury and could be activated.

    I wouldn't have let him start the inning. Not pitch hitting could have cost a run too.

    There's literally no one besides Blevins that was a worse decision than folty vs the 1-3 hitters

    You guys would run through the bullpen and the bench by the 4th inning.

    How demoralizing to get back in a game and see your manager run a guy back out there that some dummy in Mississippi even knew what a terrible decision?

    This offense is never out of a game, but enough is enough. Fix the pitching.

    I understand but my question is who do you bring in to face Turner

    Tomlin is our multi inning guy tonight. Touki would have made some sense at that point. He only threw 18 pitches last night and could have given us an inning tonight.

    You save your multi inning guy for a low leverage situation. Which as events have turned out will be the 7th and 8th innings.
