Playoff GDT 10/7/19: Braves @ Cardinals Game 4 - The Death Blow for the Dead Birds

[Enscheff]

DK didn't exactly earn himself a big payday this series. Not very impressive at all.

Lol...

If you’re not going to bring in Julio it DK doesn’t go long today, then why is he on the roster? You’re not going to bring him in in the middle of an inning late, or use him in a high leverage situation. Makes no sense.

 

[nsacpi]

Why make that double switch? To let Jackson go multiple innings?

Plus Duvall gets multiple ABs.

 

[WaitingFor2017]

The moment is just too big for Jackson

 

[salmagundy]

Puke walks the 1st batter he faces. Typical!!!

 

[UNCBlue012]

Lmao. Luke.

 

[Enscheff]

Plus Duvall gets multiple ABs.

Lol ok.

If that was the goal then why is he on the bench?

 

[Braves1976]

snit going to let luke make sure we lose this.

 

[Hudson2]

I’m cool with Duval coming in but not Jackson. I just don’t trust him.

 

[weso1]

Now that Duvall is in the game we have a chance to win.

 

[Buzzworm]

Don’t be surprised by DK bc that’s what he is. He’s not a 1 or 2. He’s a #3 at best on a good team. He’s no ace at all.

I completely agree but why then did he start game 1 so he could start twice?
Snit used him like an ace and it cost us.
Oh well.
Atleast if we can get to the NLCS we will be able to use him properly as our 3-4 and not have to see him twice.

Yep or any moment for that matter.

 

[bravesfanMatt]

We seriously need to upgrade neck this winter. He is just awful. Old man bmac should be on bench today with flowers trying to steal strikes.

 

[Ozzie Swanson]

Jackson is a mental midget. He’s going to walk the ball park or give up a bomb.

Certainly seems like a DK/Julio duo for 5-6 innings would have been the most effective strategy.

 

[bravesfanforlife88]

Jackson going to walk the bases loaded and Snitker won't do a damn thing

 

[bravesfanforlife88]

Certainly seems like a DK/Julio duo for 5-6 innings would have been the most effective strategy.

Maybe he wanted Julio to get a fresh start to an inning?

 

[Enscheff]

Lol the slow motion shows Jackson isn’t even looking at home when he throws.

 

[Five]

Lmao guy doesn’t even look at his target when he pitches

 

[Enscheff]

Right, and he would have after they PH for DK.

I posted before the game even started that DK should not be allowed to face Goldy/Ozuna twice.
