Some have said you can't blame Snitckers for this loss. Why?? Who replaced Markakis with Duval in RF?? Who replaced Duda at 1B with Flaherty thus weakening the defense and hitting?? Who left Winkler in for at least 1 to many hitters?? much less putting him in the game?? Folty probably could have gone another inning. Only had thrown 87 pitches.

Welp, that was a crappy game.
That might be the backbreaker, boys. I sure hope not!
Boo! Boo! Boo @ the braves!
Just Wow. That was awful
Gonna be a long flight to Arizona tonight...better figure whole **** out boys
Get off my lawn!
I agree they are the best team butOriginally Posted by CrimsonCowboy
How many times did people say that about us in the 90's?
In 96 and 99 especially.
Baseball for sure has the most random champs.
Well, no matter what, we still lead after today. Let's hope we can pick things up and move on!
A few obvious things: The Braves need to get a lot better in the offseason. They're ahead of schedule, but they still have many places to improve.
Also, Folty is awesome.
Time to wave it.

Lol, this board is full of absolute pussies.

Who couldn’t get outs in the eighth inning? Who misplayed a certain double play into an error that cost two bases? Who allowed a two out 432 foot bomb to a hitter who is basically a glorified AAAA player right now? That would be the guys on the field. I don’t think Snitker is a great manager by any stretch, but this team, with Duda and Flaherty playing had a 7-1 lead and didn’t close the deal. When the players aren’t doing the job, the blame lies at their feet.

Post game will be a good watch.
Can Snit put a positive spin on this one?
Still seems kind of dumb that your team has been scuffling badly and you don't put in your A-team to preserve the win at all costs.

How in the world can you watch that? This loss literally has me sick to my stomach. Spit!
Wren somewhere smiling
Braves now 3-13 vs winning teams in the 2nd half. We now go west where we suck to face the dbacks best pitchers
I understand that thought. Still, that lineup gave the team a 7-1 lead. No excuses for blowing that lead, no matter how great the other team is.

I'm from Atlanta man..it's what we do.
We have thick skin since we have had so much practice at this.
I guess I could be like most people and become a bandwagon fan of the Sux or Scubs but that's just not who I am.
Although judging from Suntrust the last week, that's who a lot of people are lol
Never saw so many Boston fans not from Boston.
I still think it's very bizarre that Acuna wasn't placed in RF.
It didn't matter in the end but McAuley thinks he plays RF next season, so why avoid it?
He makes at least one of those plays out there. The last one, it looked like Duvall was there and just let it drop. I think he gets that one.
Maybe it doesn't matter in the end as the ball is rolling, but still.
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.
LOL, now we hate the guy who has posted an .808 OPS and 2.7 WAR with almost a month left to play?
fckn cry baby
