GDT 4/27: THE NIGHT FOLTY RE- SPAWNED...

[Acuña’s Bat Flip]

The giants said they're looking to trade melancon and Watson. Both are damn good relievers. Go get em, AA, sheet

Or at least Will Smith.

 

[CyYoung31]

Not sure how you could look at this bullpen and determine that Snitker is the problem.

 

[GovClintonTyree]

yup. Don’t tell me you can “shop in any aisle” but not pay the price when it’s a damn necessity.

Yeah, sometimes when I go to Publix I accidentally walk down the aisle with toilet paper and tampons. I don't buy anything. Maybe that's what Alex meant.

 

[UNCBlue012]

Not sure how you could look at this bullpen and determine that Snitker is the problem.

Yeah, it’s not Snit. He makes questionable decisions, but this isn’t on him. It’s on AA.

 

[Braves1976]

Firing AA would be stupid, but we saw last year with snit that even with a decent pen he would go with the weakest links to blow games. This year with our injuries and Minter struggling we have more weak links for him to let blow games. That said, leaving Folty in too long set up that 9th.

This. Our closer was out there in the 9th with a lead and couldn't find the zone. Not Snit's fault. It's the idiot who built the roster's fault.

He leaves starters in for too long. He and AA are in on this failure together neither is innocent.

 

[PurpleBrave]

We’ve had the lead in 11 of our 14 losses

Melancon hasn't pitched over 40 innings since 2016, and is owed a crap ton of money this year and next. Beyond that he's just been solid rather than his previous excellence the past few years when he is pitching. Our bullpen is garbage, but he's exactly the sort of desperation move we should be avoiding.

Watson would be a great pickup, he's been solid the past few seasons and is signed to a cheap contract with a cheap option for next year.

AA is a cheap narcissist.

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

This is not a Snitker problem. This is a bullpen problem and since the pen was not dealt with, this is an AA problem. And if this problem isn’t dealt with, it’s going to be a long Summer watching the pen giving up leads. There is no excuse for having leads blown in 11 games.

 

[salmagundy]

Minter tied with Julio for # of losses with 3. BP has lost 5 games, but won 4 so far this season.

 

[PurpleBrave]

At this point, let’s bring back Kerry lightenberg and ray king

 

[Braves1976]

Calling AA an idiot makes you look ignorant.

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

At this point, let’s bring back Kerry lightenberg and ray king

Or Mike Bielecki and Brad Clontz

 

[striker42]

Calling AA an idiot makes you look ignorant.

Not adding any relievers in the offseason makes AA look like an idiot. Can't justify his offseason at all.

 

[Acuña’s Bat Flip]

We’ve had the lead in 11 of our 14 losses

Snit is innocent though because he’s one of the “good ol organizational boys” with his conehead! Ron Washington is a winner and went to two World Series back to back and came an eyelash away from winning one.

Watson would be a great pickup, he's been solid the past few seasons and is signed to a cheap contract with a cheap option for next year.

And everyone knows how many innings he's pitched and the money he's owed, so obviously the giants will be eating some salary

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

I know we’re frustrated, but watch the personal shots guys. No need for that garbage

 

[Acuña’s Bat Flip]

Minter tied with Julio for # of losses with 3. BP has lost 5 games, but won 4 so far this season.

Make Julion the Closer.
