Personally, I’m ok with an OF of Duvall, Acuna and Nick. It beats having no arm Ozuna in LF or no bat Ender in CF. Nick at least makes pitchers work, has good ABs and hits the occasional 2B. We have a deep enough lineup that it doesn’t really hurt to have him in there. I'd be happier with an outfield of Acuña, Pache, and Duvall. Now or next year?

Ahorita! He's already a plus defender, his hitting couldn't be any worse than Ender's, and he allows Acuña to play right field, which he's better suited to. Plus, Neck has been a dud in the playoffs every year, so what is there to lose?

Well, he was a good line drive hitter with 8-12 HR pop Take away from this stretch I think he has been a good Brave. I doubt he will be back and that will suit the WAR crowd fine. Don't go by WAR, use your eyes--can't you see he's a one tool player? He's just really good at that one tool, which is being a good/great line drive hitter. But what else does he provide? He seems steady in the OF to the casual fan because he almost never misplays a ball, but he doesn't cover much ground, no arm, no speed, no power.
And he'll be back with us again next year.
And the year after that.
And every year that Snitker is our manager.

Because nick gave up 13 last night He's done way better than that, he's been a liability for 11 games, not just one.

Ronnie just let's the bat sit on his shoulders on 3 pitches go get called out on strikes.

If Ender wasn't the alternative, I would sit Acuña a game unless he goes off later this game.
He looks like crap right now.

If Ynoa can gives us 4-5 innings of 2 runs or less I'd be happy. I'd even take 3 for 5 innings.

It's not hard to see why the Braves like Ynoa. He's only 22, you know.

Plus, Neck has been a dud in the playoffs every year, so what is there to lose? I will go along that Pache should be given his chance now, I don't know what has happened to Ender. Still my guess is the injuries from last yr have had a lingering effect. He does not even play good D in the OF anymore. At least he did have a useful OBP last yr, this yr we know the numbers

One out double is wasted. Seems if braves aint hitting homers, they don't score.
