GDT 8/7/19: Braves at Twins - The Fighting Fried Attacks Again

[sturg33]

Or why can't we give JD a breather

 

[nsacpi]

expecting a yuge game from Albies

 

[Slippyjms]

Lineup to come!

Booooooooooooooooooooooo

 

[tululush]

Lol @ this lineup. Why play Ender vs a lefty? If you’re going to play Camargo why not put him at 3rd and DH Donaldson? If Riley won’t play vs a lefty why is he on the roster?

 

[bravesfanMatt]

I guarantee that twit wants to have at least one righty power bat on the bench just in case late inning pinch hitting duties are needed. Old school baby.

 

[msstate7]

Snit said the hell with platooning ender. Ender gonna be everyday now

 

[Super]

Also, if they believe it's best to have Culberson at short at Camargo DH, then why have we had to suffer through Camargo play short for so long when he hasn't hit at all?

snit. is. dumb.

 

[tululush]

I wonder if AA ignores his daily stupidity or if he face palms like we all do?

 

[thewupk]

Duvall has turned into Riley in strike outs but worse.

Hes in a role he shouldn't be in. Needs to face lefties only.

I would love to face palm twitner.

 

[salmagundy]

AA getting cross eyed shaking his head at Snits inability to put together viable line ups day in and day out, much less make good decisions on relievers. Needs to learn to make use of ALL of the talent that AA has put on the roster.

 

[tululush]

His inability to maximize righty/lefty platoons and rest players along the way makes me fear for our playoff lives.

 

[UNCBlue012]

Snit is really bad at this part of his job.

 

[CJ9]

A DH series is a great opportunity to give our regulars a day to rest at minimum. Snit can't even do that as he continues to run our regulars into the ground.

 

[Carp]

wouldn't it make more sense to play Riley at third and have Donaldson DH

oh and I like going with Fried as a hitter and using the DH for someone else

Oops. Totally forgot, to add Flowers, haha.

 

[Carp]

hopefully Ender isn't batting that high against a lefty.

Was thinking it would break up the RHH a bit

 

[tululush]

A DH series is a great opportunity to give our regulars a day to rest at minimum. Snit can't even do that as he continues to run our regulars into the ground.

He should have played Freeman on Sunday, and then DH'd Freeman, Donaldson and Acuna in this series. This would have maximized resting our best players and still had them bat. Why is this so difficult? He harps on playing guys every day and having a set lineup. Ok, they can all still play. Just give them a day of rest in the field.

 

[Enscheff]

Lol @ this lineup. Why play Ender vs a lefty? If you’re going to play Camargo why not put him at 3rd and DH Donaldson? If Riley won’t play vs a lefty why is he on the roster?

All very valid questions.

We are now seeing why I've been saying the Braves need another RHH OFer for the last 2 months.

 

[nsacpi]

Amazing that none of Freenan, Acuna, Donaldson or Albies got a single game as DH.

Almost as amazing as the mets
