Snit will be gone after this year so you won’t have to worry about that anymore I don't think there's any chance he'll be gone because the players are the ones responsible for our putrid performance, and AA for not having the proper bullpen to start the season.
But I'm still going to point out stupid thinks Sarge does or agree when other people point them out, like warming up a whole bunch of pitchers and not using Newcomb for more than one inning.

Met falls down and still get the out. That's the kind of thing that happens when you don't hustle down the line. lol, what the heck was Contreras doing? He wasn't within 15 feet of first base on a ball fielded in the outfield grass....the guy crow hopped and THEN fell down......and Contreras isn't even the picture.

He’s lost this team. There’s no fire. It was the one thing he did well - motivate them. When they end in 4th or 5th, he’ll be shown the door. It will be for the best anyway. Need some new leadership.

I would fine him for screwing around instead of running.

This team isn't good and the bullpen is downright comical. AA really screwed this season up, and he just keeps digging the hole a little deeper with every transaction. He's done a really, really shi/tty job.

13-1 Where did AA get this "donkey or Burro" clown, pitcher?

I think you're right about him losing the team. I'm not sure about him being let go, but it wouldn't bother me. Freddie is Mr Nice Guy, too, which is fine, but this team needs somebody to get pissed and it simply ain't happening and apparently isn't going to happen.

We'll have to revisit this in September, but I still believe we'll get it together and win the division. They'll do some patchwork to the pen and get it back to decent and the guys will eventually pick things up and play better.
The underlying problem for me, and I would think all Braves fans, is that just making the playoffs isn't enough anymore, we should be expecting to not just make it but to actually win in the playoffs.
And as much as I expect us to turn this around still, I don't see us being a team that can win the playoffs.

13-1 Where did AA get this "donkey or Burro" clown, pitcher? Career minor league pitcher for the Orioles who wasn't even an average pitcher in the minors.
No idea why this guy appealed to him.

. Don’t share your optimism on the division. Too much inconsistency and just not the same feel as the last three years. This is a 75-80 win team at best.

Think about that for a second. We picked up a career minor leaguer from the Orioles, an organization that hasn't been worth a crap for how long? 20 years? This guy couldn't make the Orioles. Seriously........think about that.

This is a 75-80 win team at best. 83 to 85 in my opinion and that will be enough. Because they're going to evolve and stop playing like this. But eking by and winning the division isn't that impressive in my opinion.
It's just not as embarrassing as winning 70-75 games and finishing 3rd or 4th.
