GDT 6-2 Smyly and Smith behind the dish

The disappointing part to me is we knew what would happen 3rd time vs nats, but Lester will chew us up 3rd time thru. The 3 times thru rule only hurts us, never helps us
 
The score is 2-1 Braves in the top of the 5th. Soto will have his 3rd AB of the night and hit a homer to give the Nats a 3-2 lead. Snit will then take Smyly out and this was after he could have pinch hit for him in the bottom of the 4th.

Close enough

Now we'll see the 2nd part of my prophecy come to fruition. It's literally like every game. Opposing teams rip us 3rd time thru... we pop up a couple and a grounder to 2b our 3rd time to face a starter
 
It’s baffling that Snit can’t realize the only pitchers on the roster gold enough to face the lineup a 3rd time are Fried and Anderson.

It’s even more baffling the FO isn’t correcting this issue that happens over and over.
