No doubt it’s not their fault Swanson got hurt but what does overachieving have to do with them not having at the least a league average RH pinch hitter?
That’s being cheap esp when they had over a month to trade for one and I think most folks knew Duvall wasn’t the answer.
Even with Dans injury, having Adams, Rivera and Flarety on a playoff bench is unheard of and is 100% a result of Liberty not wanting to pay anyone.
Once the Braves saw that they were going to have a chance to get to the postseason it’s mind boggling they couldn’t find one solid RHH to go along with Duda from the left side.legit options to call on in big moments like these not AAAA filler.

We acquired Duvall. Didn't work out. Probably still should be on postseason roster

The Braves were not expected to compete this year. That's why they maxed out their payroll with dead money. Left them very little room to make any improvements to the team. Why is why we lack a good RH pinch hitter. I suspect 2019 will be different.
 
HERES AN IDEA ASSHOLES. QUIT SWINGING AT THE FIRST PITCH. THEYVE GAMEPLANNED FOR IT AND HAVE PITCHERS THAT CAN EXECUTE
