    Braves only up by 1 after 2, but they are hitting Sanchez hard.

    Is this a win or a loss? Should AA change to seller?

    Snitker is just a damn idiot. Why are we not hunting and letting him hit? Took away a chance for Acuna to break it open.

    Damn. Wish Mike had just let strike 3 go by to give Venezuelan Trout a chance.

    bunting with the bases loaded doesnt seem like a smart idea

    Dammit. Freaking Soto's overrated ass.

    Really needed a run or two there.

    my pitcher isn’t swinging the bat at all with less than 2 outs and guys at 1st and 2nd, much less loaded. take a strikeout. infinitely better.

    More importantly we need a manager who knows how to control a game by when to bunt, or taking a pitch. Needs to teach the game correctly to the young players.

    Hopefully that foul ball off Sorokas leg isn’t bothering him pitching now.

    Unlikely. You’d basically have to suicide squeeze to have a chance.

    I don’t think you can just put the blame on Snit. Soroka could have just stood there.

    Soroka is a very unreliable bunter fwiw.

    Trying to squeeze there would've risked him missing the bunt (which he has plenty) and then leading to there being 2 outs.

    He'd have been better off just holding on to the bat and heading to the dugout.
    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.
