The damage Snit and Smith have done to this team is immeasurable.......and let's not forget about Seitzer. Plenty of blame to go around… from the front office to the coaching staff to the players … after coming within one game of the World Series in 2020, this season has definitely been a huge letdown. True, but look at the damage that home run Smith inflicted on the team from a mental standpoint last night. Were it an isolated occurrence it'd be different, but it's not. In fact, it's expected, yet Snit keeps sending him out there. It's gotta have a big-time negative impact on the team, not to mention the worst possible way to start this road trip.

Just the final nail in the coffin that we all knew was there

Morton has turned into rag-arm in the last few minutes.

I think what bugs me more than anything is that we chose to give a lucrative 3-year deal to a relief pitcher, when that is the most volatile role in the game. We almost never do multi-year deals, we chose to do one for a supposed closer, and it's this guy? Blows my mind.

Morton slipped out of that by the skin of his teeth.

The nail in the coffin was those two home losses on Colorado followed by Will HR Smith last night.
I do not blame the FO, they infused some talent in here at the deadline and they did go on that 16-2 stretch. Since then they held over water for a time but this week has been a disaster - they have gone from 12 over 500 to what might be 5 over by the end of this weekend.
I blame Snitker for piss poor game management and Will HR Smith is one of the big culprits
And also blame Fansby Swanson for being piss poor, I hope he is replaced this off season. He is too inconsistent to be a winning player and Ozzie deserves blame for lack of performance as of late
This team was good enough to take this division and they are in the process of choking. I have not even watched this game tonight cause I have had enough of these apologetic announcers, we know what the results will be.
Not all is lost with UGA football.

Will Smith is on par with Melvin Upton Jr and Dan Uggla only we are not stuck for 5 yrs

Can’t stand the thought of stupid Harper and his team winning the East, but at least it gives us a definite team to pull against. I hope they get absolutely waxed in the first round.
