GDT-9-4-18 THE CHERNOBYL SYNDROME MASSACRE: RETURN OF THE NIGHT OF THE NEWK!

[nsacpi]

So would you say his walks are a problem?

if a guy has problem with walks you should run away from him

 

[Braves1976]

bad pitching bad managing and bad defense again

 

[Enscheff]

Newk got an extremely favorable call to K Bradley. The Braves are playing with fire letting him face those RHHs a 3rd time.

Sigh

 

[USMA76]

Mr. Newcombe, this is Mr. Strike Zone; Mr. Strike Zone, this is Mr. Newcombe.

Now that we've gotten that out of the way.

 

[atl717]

We really have a good stable of mental midget pitchers.

 

[bravesfanforlife88]

Crazy what not being able to throw strikes does...more runners on base and defense getting flat footed by having such long half innings

The last week has been a dang nightmare. It’s a clinic on how to not play baseball. Ugh.

 

[Enscheff]

The Braves have 28 pitchers in the BP, and Snit allowed Newk to blow the lead pitching to the top of the order a 3rd time.

Again, these tactical errors can not be allowed to happen on a contending team.

 

[Ozzie Swanson]

Gamecast is always wrong on balls/strikes. He walked him clearly.

 

[UNCBlue012]

Omg, guys. Why can’t we get a damn out?

Not sure which one is wrong but braves' analytic guy on radio early in the year said that superimposed box is not correct on tv

 

[Ozzie Swanson]

Omg, guys. Why can’t we get a damn out?

Because for the second straight day we let a pitcher face a ridiculously good lineup for a 3rd time through the order. And we're sucking on defense.

What do you think is more likely: TV strike zone is wrong or Newcomb's control sucks?

 

[UNCBlue012]

Yup. Snit is **** lol

 

[CyYoung31]

LOL @ the announcers trying to pin this inning on Camargo.

 

[UNCBlue012]

We likely should have given up more. Shame on Camargo but this is on Newk.

Unfortunately we are stuck with him until the end of next season in all likelihood.
No way they let him go if we somehow make the playoffs.

 

[jpx7]

Newcomb is trash rn but Snitker is the capital stretch-run failson of the team.

 

[Ozzie Swanson]

No. This is on Snitker. He should know who Newcomb is at this point and he shouldn't have put him in that situation.
