Another futile attempt with men on base. Thank goodness for the wild pitch.

Yeah, that's a good call. I thought he was sent down for Wynn remembered it was Sianni.

That should have been a no-brainer, but Oli always wants to "save my guy in case I need him later in the game."

He's an idiot with no pulse for the here and now as we all know.

Because that would hurt Gorman's feelings.
and that is one reason why Marmol is not a good manager.

Yeah that wasn't impressive. Sure they tied the game with some help and that is nice. But, to fail so spectacularly and only score with luck? uugh

Oli
It just doesn’t make any sense with Gorman facing the LH pitcher. What is the point of having Saggese here if he’s not needed in that spot.

Contract year Matz is looking good this season.

Is Oli smart enough to leave him in the game?

He may not realize this reliever is capable of 80 pitches and his bullpen has been awful.

I thought about that too, but the Braves don't have any more lefties in the bullpen, so they might've considered it was too early to remove a left handed bat

He should. Matz should be in the rotation instead of Mikolas.
