    Lol, Snit has become enlightened over night. Someone in the FO was as fed up as we were.

    It does feel like a coup of sorts. Strange music playing over the radio station.

    Ender is hitting .286 vs tonight's lefty while Flowers in a bigger sample is hitting .143 against him.

    The Braves FO must read these boards. Immediately after detailing how to properly deploy the current roster we see Snit doing exactly that.

    Perhaps a Culberson/Acuna/Duvall OF would be better, but Culby may need a day off.

    Too bad the Braves didn't go out and get another RHH OFer at the deadline so Inciarte didn't have to start.

    Should have been "Too Many Puppies".... Should never miss the opportunity for a good Primus reference.

    Expecting Ronald to do Ronald things at the plate.

    So, a routine grounder to the left side.
    A walk then a stolen base.
    Probably a homer, maybe two.

    Flowers will stepup and show veteran Lairdership.

    With Ender back to his pre-2018 ways, the lineup seems more stable. It’s a shame Markakis got hurt. As much as he’s been maligned on these boards, he helped provide some consistency to a part of the lineup that has been extremely trick or treat since he went out.

    If by "consistency" you mean he was predictably terrible vs LHP and good vs RHP, then yes, his "consistency" is certainly missed.

    I know I was too but I couldn’t think of anything quite as good today so I thought I’d just stick along the same theme

    That’s better than terrible vs LHP and RHP that his replacements have shown outside of Duvall’s hot start.
