you idiot

ALBIES!!!

You were right... hopefully the excitement is about to crank up, but it's been awful of late

 

[msstate7]

Really wondering if Albies should be full time RH... he's a stud

Other HR was lh

 

[msstate7]

Swanson 0-7 since called back up, but 4 have been hard hit and no Ks. I just don't think 2017 is his year

Are the John's still convinced that Snitker is the right guy for 2018?

I wouldn't care if they did as long as Snitker knew it was his last year as manager. The FO wouldn't want to have a new hire go through a .500ish type year next year. My worry with this is that the Braves overachieve ala September 2016 which would then get the FO to re-sign Snitker for 2019 and beyond when things really matter.

It's kind of the flipside of last season, where we stunk early and played well late. This year, it looks like it will be the other way around.

Teams are going to figure out very quickly that you can't let Albies face a LHP out of the pen. Right now it's not but it'd be fine if Albies was a hit for average guy from the left and the power was from the right.

I hope he doesn't let this frustrate him. His approach has been very good with some terrible luck.

Agree...he's hitting the ball hard just isn't having any luck

 

[msstate7]

FF continues craptastic 2nd half

 

[jpack1]

Fowler clearly crossed the bag. Slide or not you can't do that. Should have been an auto DP

 

[msstate7]

Atta boy, ff

 

[jsebe10]

Rex Brothers can eat big fat cock.

 

[steveAKAslick]

F'ing horrendous

 

[msstate7]

Someone should tell snit that brothers isn't any good

This team is a long ways from contention. It needs an overhaul on the MLB coaching staff. Announcers too

So much this.

And somehow he's the MIF they're (supposedly) flirting with dangling.

Idk why he reminds me of BJ Upton from the right handed side. A shorter version of course. Maybe it's just a similar stance

 

[chipchildress]

nice line from jackson

I get that there is a lot of emotion involved in seeing your team lose ugly, but this thread is really hilarious.

They are never as bad as they look when they lose, nor as good as they look when they win. A game like tonight's tends to way overstate the negatives... The future is still bright.

Everyone needs to calm down and be a bit more patient. Better days are ahead. Firing everybody now would be neither smart nor productive.

Can you be surprised with the stupidity we've seen lately? I'm pro FO, but if they trade him, it'll be a mistake.

What leads you believe that we would improve by making those changes? I cant even remember the last time Braves fans were satisified with the in game moves of the manager. And please dont say Bobby Cox or I might die of laughing. Fans couldnt wait to see him go. Seitzer is a good hitting coach, leave him alone. Pitching coach can go imo. Sntiker doesnt matter to me because we would just bring in a new guy to do the same ****. Why keep shuffling retards around. Now if they actually want to hire a competent manager I am all for it. Theres about 2 in all of baseball so I dont see it happening.
