GDT: 4/14/2018 Cubs

[Braves1976]

If this team had a decent manager and pitching coach they might be a wild card contender once Acuna and Camargo are added. But you cannot lose games like this and even think about that. This will be a killer.

 

[TheBravos]

With these conditions you don’t bring in scrub pitchers like a normal big lead game...you bring in vets.

 

[sturg33]

Nobody said it was. He was left in too long.

Actually someone DID say it was

Sorry y'all, but if you pull Newcomb this isn't an issue...

And then you agreed

Exactly

 

[GeorgiaGirl]

Just me but maybe you could have brought in one of your best relievers in the eighth inning after you’d lost all momentum. Maybe you don’t give up a five run lead.

Freeman legitimately is getting too much work.

Yep.

Minter needs to be built up and it's a 5 run lead then. Let him get a crack.

 

[Garmel]

Can we get rid of Snitker and Chuckie now?

 

[bravesnumberone]

Hopefully Acuna can be a reliever too

 

[Heyward]

All this started because of a swinging bunt by Contreras, inning/game is probably over if thats hit harder. Cruel game.

 

[Hawk]

I literally went for a walk. What the **** happened.

 

[msstate7]

Blowing this lead will require cutting a player or 2, or firing someone

 

[BeanieAntics]

Guys... OZZIE JUST TOOK A WALK!! Who cares about the result of the game!

 

[sturg33]

I hadn't realized that the Braves bullpen came into the game leading the league in walks

I suspect we still will be after today

And then you agreed

What? GG didn't blame it on Newcomb either. She thought he was left in too long as well..

 

[sturg33]

Can you read? She said blowing the game wouldn't have been an issue if we took him out earlier.

Then you agreed

Both of you are just wrong

 

[TheBravos]

Hmmm...the Cubs pitcher can throw strikes....strange.

 

[CyYoung31]

So, the 2010 Braves didn’t win the Wild Card?

 

[Garmel]

Then you agreed

Both of you are just wrong

You need reading comprehension.

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

Weather matches the game now for the Braves

 

[Heyward]

I literally went for a walk. What the **** happened.

Walks and bad luck.

 

[msstate7]

If Luke Jackson and Ramirez aren't DFA'd, I want snit fired

 

[dak]

I think a loss like this devastates your team on a normal day. Given the craziness of these conditions, I think it'll make it easier to shake it off and move on.
