GDT: Braves @ Phillies Game 3: No Mentum Like Momentum

Quick. Someone make up something Harper said after the game, since he and Phillies apparently were riled up over something silly Arcia either did or didn’t say. Made it “personal”.

Harper staring down our guys like a bitch should be all it takes. But we're stiffs so there.
 
Braves need to use same lineup as game 1. Snit has to have a quick hook tomorrow, and he has to realize that a big spot in the 4th inning is still a big spot... use a good reliever if needed
 
Have any reporters asked Snit in the presser why he left Elder out there to die unlike Philly taking out Suarez when he had runners on in Game 3 after 3 innings?

3 off days in 5 days, and that was after a rested week and some simulated innings following the end of the regular season.

snit was using Iglesias and Minter 3/4 days sometimes 4/5 days and 5/6 days during the regular season, but he can’t somehow seem to make use of his bullpen when they’re rested in October.

someone please ask him to make it make sense.

things are so much easier to manage when your offense is jacking homers left and right and you don’t have to do much managing.

we all know this team would have easily won 110+ games if not more if Snit hadn’t done Snit things during regular season as well.

Yes, and you might want to do yourself a favor and not read the response.

It's on AA at this point. Our successful run, snit was told what to do. If snit is given free will now, it's on AA

"After going into the 3rd inning, I thought maybe go five. He looked like his old self. His stuff was really good. And, no, it just kind of went quick. ...The way Bryce was throwing, I was thinking, man, he was really good. And the slider was good. His change up was good. And it just kind of, I don't know. I mean, it was the third inning of the game with a lot to cover on the back end of it. ...No, not really. I mean, I just -- you know, he had two outs and one guy on, I think, in the inning. It's a process."

Translation is Snitker wasn’t paying attention
 
As I'm calming down and thinking more clearly...
Elder
Tonkin
Hand
AJSS
Hernandez

They faced the bottom 5 pitchers in on the roster. Strider and a rested pen should be a much different story tomorrow. I think strider gives us a chance... offense, it's on you to show up
 
I just got home and see Snit make very literally the worst bullpen decision he could have made. I know he’s a dingus sometimes, but I cannot believe he did that… especially with two outs.

axtually I just watched his presser.

the best part was after that.

a reporter asked him if he had thought about walking Harper.


Snit said he would have been fine if he was unintentionally walked. But he didn’t wanna put another runner on. He then said I **** you not “I was hoping we’d make a good pitch and he’d pop up or ground out” but he “just happened to hit a homer there”.

this isn’t Rojas or Stott we’re talking about here. This is one of the best and most disciplined hitters in all of baseball, and our manager was riding on the the hope that Harper would pop up or ground out. With two runners on.

he would have been fine if Elder was wild and walked him. He didn’t ask Krani or TDA to just tell him to pitch around Harper. What the hell is he even thinking.

bro, we’ve had 3 days off in 5 days. There were stretches our best and middle relievers were pitching 3/4 4/5 days during the regular season.

game 1 was Saturday. We were off Sunday. Game 2 Monday. We were off yesterday. Worse case scenario they pitch Today AND tomorrow and then have ANOTHER day off Friday. Rest has been a plenty.

At the end of the day, we're going to lose the series because we couldn't win Game 1. Today was always going to be a loss.
