Agree! The talk shows will be back full tilt today and tomorrow blasting the team and FO. What is DD doing?  I've advocated for McGregor only because of his background and believe he will talk to Palmer and Dempsey and come up with a solution if only temporary.until a long term answer is found. Maybe it will be McGregor and please dump Coolbaugh.  He was only brought here because Davis had success working with him, liked him and suggested he get the job. We see how that has worked out. Do I go to the game Wednesday or try to give my tickets away?  I'm only going if they have made some changes between now and then.

I'm pretty sure you'll have some tickets to dispose of for Wednesday's game.

I've seen virtually no difference between Crowley, Presley and Coolbaugh.     The team keeps bringing in players who aren't very selective at the plate, with only a few exceptions.    So, you get what you get and the hitting coach  can't really change anything.

FWIW, Caleb Joseph gives Coolbaugh a lot of the credit for his dramatic improvement, and suggests Coolbaugh is behind Jonathan Schoop's dramatic improvement as well.   http://www.masnsports.com/school-of-roch/2017/07/caleb-joseph-talks-about-his-offensive-resurgence.html

I occasionally post at a Braves site.  I've seen several posts there of fans saying the Braves would be much better off if they had kept McDowell.  He's regarded as being best with veteran pitchers.
