GDT 5-23: Nationals at Braves; Riding the Tromp Hot Hand

Look at the savant page from today's game. This team was awful at the plate all day. Weiss didn't make this team hit dribblers and chase breaking balls all game.

Not pinch hitting for Tromp was a mistake but what lost us this game was an offense with no pulse.
That was all he had control over. I can live with hitters sucking, but choosing the best option is easy and requiring nothing but a phone to use fangraphs
 
WW doesn't hit. He doesn't pitch. His job is to put the team in a position to win, and he blew it with that decision. You have never questioned a manager here and you never will
Dude, I have questioned managerial decisions. Weiss included. But that one decision to let Tromp, who by the way, had two hits last night including the game winner, is not the reason they lost. Take your feelings out of it and look at the box score for crying out loud.
 
The fanbase is comparing Walt to Snit, and noting that while he’s not perfect, he’s a huge improvement.

That’s far giving him diety status.
That was snit! That's exactly what snit woulda done. Only difference is half the board would call out snit, and now it's... well aw shucks he can't hit for them
