I'd try Rosario at lead-off. GAPOZ ain't a lead-off hitter.

ANOTHER hr off Anderson 4-2 them, 4th Braves look to be fading at this point, which wouldn't be particularly surprising.

Anderson doing his best Smyly imitation.

I hate to go on another Ian Anderson rant, I will stop at this but bottom line he is not getting the job done tonight.
This team cannot make life easy for themselves. Maybe Anderson might be great someday but for now I sure would prefer Logan Webb in my rotation he is better.
If this Braves team fades and chokes there are no excuses other than these BUMS are not good enough. I will lose respect for the FO if they come back with Snitker and this coaching staff next yr if they do blow it.
I have avoided the game day tread the last couple of games and might fade away cause I cannot take this frustration. Enough is enough. What is scary is the cupcake schedule the Phillies have - Braves fans are not wrong to be irritated on a potential choke right now.

I'm not irritated. The team has a lot of holes. They're lucky to be where they are. In a good division, we'd have turned the page to 2022 a couple of months ago.

Anyone thinking that Toussant, Ynoa or Anderson are going to cut it, are just fooling themselves. These guys are long relievers, at best. They never seem to make it 5 innings. I expect this last two weeks to be miserable. Anderson should be all right and Ynoa has a chance. I do not know how good his shoulder is - but he has his good games tonight he is not getting it done But Toussant is a perpetual project that tantalized you for a bit then disappoints. He will be a journeyman for a while till MLB figures out he cannot do it

Much of the holes were in this wretched pen. And the rotation has 4 pitchers who you should count on though I question how healthy Anderson is right now The lineup is quite good but there is some mindset about leaving too many runners on base The run differential we are way ahead. Game management has not been good. They have had enough of a lead and no way we should not win this division. As bad as our guys can be no way this team should not finish first. And Smyly was a bum they never should have even thought of , that was AA's dumbest move. At least it was not long term like the Melvin Upton move back in the Wren era that was the worst move made but we can move on from Smyly once this is over

We had one 16-2 run and other than that we are 60-66 Blame Snitker for this I think his game management this yr is worse than the other yrs he has been here. New regime needed. Would not look bad at all if it was .500 with that 16-2 run. All we would have to be is 63-63, just three more games and I do think Snitker has cost us a good 5 games this yr

Anderson at 83 (53) pitches as he stays in for the bottom of the 6th, 4-2 them.
