    Respectfully, Snickers would like you to know that you have no clue what you're talking about.

    He makes my skin crawl for some reason. He just looks like a little prick.

    These short at-bats from Ortega and Soroka likely bought Scherzer another inning as well.

    Is Snitker asleep or something because there's no need to have Soroka try to innings soak in this September afternoon game.

    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.

    Especially when he clearly needs to cut some innings before the playoffs.

    Snitker doesn't understand the concept of rest.

    Can Snit do what's best for the franchise and step down and take a cookie cutter "franchise" position in the front office after this season?

    Turner would be terrible for us. He wouldn't have our pitching to tee off on.

    Snitker is so about to get lucky again here with not hooking Soroka. Jesus.

    Even though it should've happened.
    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.

    Ok great, Soroka proved he is a legit SP and can battle through a rough start. That cliche is satisfied for the day.

    Can they get him out of there now?
