Cool, Riggs is about to burn Hairston Jr. for a few swings in the on deck circle.

That would be a pretty impressive double play he grounded into.

What's the point of having Stairs just to pinch hit Nix. WTF

Smart not burning Stairs in 7th

Egregious Offense #1 against Riggs of the season? Yes.

Only 161 games to go

this is what happens when you don't bring your best 25 to Opening Day, and you play Options games and pick "veterans" instead.

How can you blame Riggs for Nix going up there and swinging at two pitches that were balls?

Smithian · « **Reply #341:** March 31, 2011, 03:19:12 PM »

Why is Laynce Nix on roster? I seriously don't know.

I'm blaming that Nix is up there to begin with.

For putting him up there in what will probably be a decisive moment in the game when he had Matt Stairs on the bench, the guy that was brought in for those exact situations. The bad at-bat is on Nix, the decision to put him there is on Riggs.

InsaneBoost · « **Reply #344:** March 31, 2011, 03:22:06 PM »

Riggleman still thinks this is ST.

Desmond leads off an inning for the fourth time today. Results so far? 0-3, 2 Ks =|

If Riggs sends Stairs up there the Braves pitch around him with 1st open. Now if you are saying why is Nix on the roster, I get it.

Saving him for when the Braves HAVE to pitch to him, 1st base was open.
