6/27 GDT: Reds at Braves

[Managuarantano's Volunteers]

This is such a Sunday lineup that I’ll be surprised if we score another run

 

[Garmel]

I feel like it’s been a mistake for AA not to have already traded for a bullpen piece while Viz has been injured

It's also been a mistake not to give Phillips some work too.

 

[msstate7]

I think Sam freeman is a decent pitcher, but AA is gonna have to DFA him so snit won't keep running him in the ground

If AA had kept him up, Brain Snitker would just use him like Socolovich

We have to acquire a vet so Snit actually feels comfortable using him

 

[msstate7]

Acuna 0-4
Hitting .211 at Gwinnett

Someone needs to lock Sam Freeman in a freezer.

I think a more prudent move would be to have Snitckers arrested and charged with abuse. Freeman has appeared in 38 of Braves 78 games. After he's found guilty of abuse, he gets a ban for life from MLB.

And Chuckie should be co-charged and get same treatment.

 

[msstate7]

Someone should tell snit that Freeman's era is 5.13 now.

I think he was a decent pitcher last year. I think he's lost it this year. Relief pitchers are often unreliable from one year to the next.

Bench the hottest player on the team??? Keep the face of the team in for more struggles?? Wears the Big Sombrero today.

I don't care what Freddie wants to do about playing all 162 games, should have sat his ass today, with the day off tomorrow maybe he could get his head back on straight, 17 Ks in last 8 games is not starting material.

He absolutely should have sat today. Getting Freddie some rest would have been huge. He obviously needs a day.

 

[PurpleBrave]

About to be 2-4 against two of the worst teams in the league. Fortunately we don’t play the royals next

 

[Hudson2]

Another walk to start the inning...

 

[jsebe10]

Oh no way another leadoff walk by the blowpen..

 

[TURBO]

Dansby HR coming up.

Dansby HR coming up.

Strikeout on a sweeping slider.

 

[NYCBrave]

We've given up 11 hits and 4 walks. We really have no business winning this game but still have a shot.

Last night is the game we should have won. Our leaky pen has cost of 4 or 5 games in the last couple weeks.

yeah that's not good at all

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

Putting the bull in bullpen again

 

[UNCBlue012]

This was a really awful loss. No excuses. Just embarrassing.

It'll help getting Viz back, but we absolutely won't win the division and/or make it to the playoffs without bullpen changes.
