GDT 7/8/24: Braves @ D-Backs - Guess Who's Back

Is there anywhere that keeps track of how many times teams squander chances with two on and nobody out? I swear to Christ the Braves have to be at the top.
 
Which is all the stranger, since I would think Seitzer would be someone who preaches situational hitting.
 
Elder is likely going to give up 3-4 runs in the fifth or sixth and people are going to bitch about Snit when the offense can not be bothered to do anything against a rookie pitcher.

Last year's team in particular cut down on chasing terrible pitches and made pitchers work harder, resulting in said pitchers finally making a mistake that they could punish.

I'm sure the guys have been pressing some for a variety of reasons. But it's not like they suddenly forgot how to hit. I think there has been a change in baseballs again which has affected things. Way more injuries so far compared to all of last year.

Maybe read the room and realize they aren’t using spiked balls and you might have to change approach occasionally.

The way elder is dealing MLB may have shipped the super dead balls to zona this week.

If only it was that easy to change how you've hit your whole life.

Maybe certain teams only get them? Braves mashed agaisnt the Phillies and Yankees. Two teams with good offenses this year.
 
I mean Ozuna has to know they're going to be working that slider away...especially after trying to come inside...Zero approach or plan.
