There’s a recurring dream in my head. Atlanta Braves manager Brian Snitker is standing at the blackboard of a high school classroom… except that he looks like actor Ben Stein from the movie Ferris Bueller’s Day Off and he’s going through an analytics lesson – asking if “anyone?…. anyone?” can go to the mound and get 3 outs.
The class – full of relief pitchers – is in various stages of descent towards a coma.
The Atlanta Braves are suffering through this bullpen transition… but so is everyone else.
