    It’s not a Braves game if Snit isn’t making in game mistakes.

    People are going look back 20 years from now and wonder who the hell that guy with Freddie Freeman is on that cover of SI from 2011.

    He's so far off the plate that I find it hard to believe that he can reach pitches on the outside corner without lunging and lunging is what got him hit in the head all those years ago.

    I miss him. He’s my favorite player. It is unbelievably sad how bad of a hitter he has become.

    Cubs should just seriously advance Heyward the rest of 21’ 22’ and 23’ salary and tell him to hit the road...

    If only he would’ve listened to literally every single coach who asked him “do you really need to bounce up and down like that at the plate? You do realize you can’t see the as well that way, right?”

    Was never quite the same at the same after getting hit in the face. One of those guys I hated to see go, but understood we just couldn’t afford him. Never would have thought he would tank.

    I can’t believe a guy with his talent hasn’t had his entire batting stance and swing rebuilt. It would be one thing if he was an average hitter with the rest of his game. But not even being able to crack a .700 OPS every year just isn’t acceptable. A change should have been attempted a long time ago.

    I would guess that every single coach he’s ever had has asked him.

    Why he never took the advice is beyond me.
