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.
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. It really does say that Braves fans deserve to be able to bitchslap AA and tell him he better wake up and fix this pen now instead of assing around.

He really should have been put on the bench right now and then fined as well. Maybe he's like his brother after all? Gawd I really hope not.

Hot seat for AA if this status quo is allowed to carry into next year?

This is getting way ahead of things.....but if Ozuna ends up being convicting of domestic violence I would assume we would get out of his contract.
That might not be a bad thing.
Expensive fight though for him and his wife just because they can't control themselves any better than this.

Mets announcers mentioned that Ronald Acuna Sr. played 5 years in the Mets minor league system, I never knew that somehow.
He had some decent numbers but never played higher than double A ball.
Was not a home run hitter but hit for average.

It's a shame he couldn't use some of that anger on the field this year. Conviction won't matter. He is gone from Atlanta if there's anything to these charges.

Tomlin got all four batters he faced, struck two of them out, Snitker will be happy to have his 8th inning guy back.

Game over, shockingly we made no miraculous comeback.
I knew I should have gone on to my weekly C&B torture club get together rather than stay home to watch this game.

I like and respect Freddie Freeman both as a person and as a player. He's a terrific player, but he's not the type of guy to lead a team from an emotional standpoint.....and that's OK. It's who he is. Ideally, the Braves need to find a guy that can play and can command the respect of his teammates and lead them from an emotional/vocal standpoint to take Ozuna's place, because Ozuna is as good as gone, IMO.

Been a pretty embarrassing year to be a Braves fan so far this year. Get the All Star Game ripped away. Continue to get heat for our “racist” nickname. The team has terribly underperformed. We have a doofus for a manager. And now, the Ozuna arrest. Not a banner year to wear the old Tomahawk.
Winning would cure a lot of it, but considering we’ve spent all of zero days over .500, that doesn’t appear to be happening any time soon if at all.

Can anyone explain why we have to warm up 4 or 5 relief pitchers every game and only pitch them an inning of less? Why not let Newcomb pitch another inning or two and save the rest of the bullpen? Analytics.

Analytics is the least of Snitker's issues.
If someone mentioned "analytics" he would think they were talking about a treatment for hemorrhoids.

I figure he's gone. We can only hope so If that can be the case then just maybe we might be able to keep Freddie Freeman, a real stand up man who deserves an extension And dam it -- if Ozuna does show up at the plate at Truist this yr or any time soon this BUM better be BOOED in plain English Got to figure he will get a suspension - I just want Ozuna outta here. I do not care what uni he wears ATL fans OWE IT TO THEMSELVES to Boo this loser for the whole thing that has happened this yr
