It was dumb not to pinch hit for Sanchez but it's silly to think it cost us the game. Consistently terrible ABs have cost us this game.

Fine... it cost us a chance to take the lead, and the pitcher gave up a run and was pulled with 2 on. It was dumb. Anyone with a brain knows it was dumb
 
Think maybe you guys are over reacting a bit? Snit knows we have an insane amount of much tougher high leverage games coming up, and is doing everything he can to save our pen.
I am not defending him, but I understand his logic here. In hindsight, obviously, it was very stupid as the Anibal couldn't get through this inning unscathed.
I have a calm feeling we will end up winning. No way they will use Guerro again...

no it isnt, you can win games 1-0 as we did recently and still have plenty of bad abs minus a solo homer. no one knows what our pinch hitter wouldve done vs a tiring chen but we do know keeping in sanchez backfired as far as at least one run so far

Roster expands in September. Day off Monday
 
Hopefully some of the AAA hitters will be called up Sept 1 as least to give Snit some more pinch-hitters, but I couldn’t believe that he didn’t give Charlie a chance there.

He was waiting for a more meaningful opportunity.

With how baffled our lineup was by Chen, I would have wagered a fair bit on not scoring there.

Leaving Sanchez in cost us a remote shot. Hitters swinging at pitches over their heads cosy us this game (I'm writing it off already, we ain't scoring).

Culberson has been pretty clutch so i dont know about that, chen looked tired and just gave up a hit to his twin too.
