    If Ozuna goes 0-for-4, can we please release him?

    Dammit, Snit. Where’s Heredia?

    I’m wondering if they’ve decided to let Acuña back up CF in the playoffs.

    No.

    If they still feel the need to give him days as a DH to get him off that knee, they're not likely going to stick him out there in center.

    Snitker probably felt the need to give Heredia the day off because he overdid it cheerleading last night and wore himself out.
    Has there EVER been a statement and question a certain someone should absolutely never have made and asked publicly more than...

    Kinda pathetic to see yourself as a message board knight in shining armor. How impotent does someone have to be in real life to resort to playing hero on a message board?

    You know I’ll actually give Snit credit for this line up. Morton is a high strikeout pitcher. We have high strikeout pitchers available in the pen as well. There’s a strong chance our pitching today can mitigate the additional defensive deficiencies in the outfield. Acuña gets a bit of a breather and Contreras and Rosario get days off. I think it’s a solid play.

    Well they’ve had him as the only other CF on the roster before when Heredia was optioned and I can’t see how Heredia makes our playoff bench. Ozuna can’t play the field and Grossman and Rosario are cOFs. I see the playoff bench being

    Tromp
    Arcia
    Grossman
    Rosario

    Nobody there’s backing up CF

    No he should not be playing today. He should’ve been suspended until the legal matter was resolved and then we either reinstate him or we release him. This will play him and then if something bad happens we’re going to release him look stupid for the organization

    I would too. I hope he strikes out every time. Very disappointed in the Braves for playing him when Heredia is available.

    I mean I don’t disagree there but that’s a FO decision. Snits finding a way to extract value out of Ozuna even if he goes 0-4 just by helping give people rest.

    I mean if today was going to be a DH day for Acuña, Rosario is hurt, and Heredia's not playing, it would have been as good a day as any to try out Grissom in LF. Let that Goins dude play second.
