I'll just leave this here, and with that, I'm done with the Acuna thing.............
A voice of reason"At the time, the Braves were leading, 3-1, and in the grand scheme of their loss it was a relatively a minor moment in a game that had many far more important plays. "
I totally disagree with that. A 3-1 lead late is never safe, ESPECIALLY with our pen. It was a major moment.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
" But it did not, in fact, cost the Braves anything. You have to make a leap of faith to claim it really cost the Braves a run"
I disagree with that as well--for all we know it may have cost us 6 runs. We would have had him on 3rd base and 2 outs and there's no telling what we might have done. We may well have not scored, but I'd like to have had our chance to get 3-4 hits in a row at that point. It just burns like hell to have that chance taken away by stupidity. I think it's too dismissive to just say we probably wouldn't have scored so what's the big deal.

He's a writer looking for hits.... if he blasts Acuña, he's one in list of hundreds.. If he claims he's the only voice of reason then his words
stand out.

Technically we would have scored at least one run if Acuna was on 3rd with two outs, because Nick would have been up next and he's the greatest hitter in the history of the game. |

I don't want Joyce pulled for a PH the first moment they bring in a left reliever. He's
hit .273 against them this year. Neck on the other hand is only batting .245 and I bet
we won't pinch hit for him against one.
