It's hilarious after all the SB we had to watch when Jansen was our closer we can't steal base off of him.

Rightfully so...his pitch count wasn't unreasonable.... stupid; Especially for a new guy as Uck noted. He deserved the opportunity to get out of his mess ….he may not have been successful, but when he put his head down after the go ahead hit, it was obvious that being removed bothered him I agree on the new guys ….ease them in Team needs to get rolling again though…. only winning can overcome the boo-boos of the savant

I hope AA doesn't think that he "fixed" the bullpen. It's a mess. [bruts like throwing spaghetti at the wall ….see what sticks I’m sure Snit felt he needed to see what each guy had asap ….no, Snit, that’s for when you have a minimum 5 run lead, better yet, a laugher Good grief!! all these teams are coming at us with a vengeance …they want to prove something …that they can beat the team with the best record… can’t mess around so cavalierly

Safe to say some needs are getting exposed, and problems highlighted.
1. Bad defense. Didn't hurt in the first half much, but has several times after the break.
2. LF is an issue again. 2021 Rosario is gone and nobody else has gotten enough play time there. Position of need perhaps? Hurt to lose hilliard
3. Pitching, both starting and bullpen. I know key pieces are on the IL and will hopefully come back(jesse looking to be out longer than expected, Anderson's season perhaps over though may make it back mid September, Lee and Minter supposed to return soon) but the bunch we have-- mainly in the pen just aint cutting it, Soroka's inconsistency has been a problem as well, highlighting a need for another starter imo even with Fried's return in mind.
4. Stupid managerial decisions-- pretty much self explanatory with Snitker.

Who knows...maybe Snitker is smarter than he looks. Maybe he figured he'd throw Pierce out there and if he bombed (which he did) it would send a message to AA...as in, we need some quality help in the bullpen, not these scrubs. Brilliant! Who would have guessed. 😉

We can't steal against that slo deliberate windup of Jensen? OMG He has one job to do. Although it might have been smart to at least watch the pitcher one time before trying the steal. Jansen held the ball and Wall got a horrible jump. Even when you have the pure speed... you've got to get a good jump and Wall was asked to steal having never not once watched him from 1st base to time him.

Yeah, our speedster did get a terrible jump. HOOVER DAM
