Fuck the Brave’s manager.
Soroka is clearly the Brave’s ace. With a cake walk into the NLDS where we saw the big names resting, why in the tomahawk chopping fuck was Soroka in a position to only pitch 1 game? This fucking guy won on talent alone. Nothing else.
Agree.
Snit made some horrible pitching decisions. Thought soroka should have went games 1 and 4/5. Folty wasn’t gonna pitch two gems in a row. And not against flaherty. And the decision to use Jackson in critical times (game 1) is a head scratcher.
That aside, the braves middle of the lineup was cold cold cold with RISP. I said it last week but a team like the cards will make you pay for that. You cant fuck around like that in the playoffs with seasoned teams.
13-1 isn’t what hurts. What hurts is this game shouldn’t have even happened. They had them on the mat and let them back up. You don’t let Ali or Tyson or foreman back up. And it’s all on them.
I do not like snit. He’s not a playoff manager.
