Awful way to lose.
Confidence in K.Jansen is dropping.
Just wasted a Strider masterpiece.
Only good of it is the emotional Freddie series is over.

He and Will Smith are both prime examples of why high priced free agent relief pitchers are never a good idea. Fortunately Jansen is only under contract for the one year and Smith is also off the books after this season. We can use that money to lock up Fried.

I can’t stand Jansen… Maybe it’s the umpire in me but he balks every pitch. He has nothing special except the deception.

What an absolute choke job in Truist Park last night.

If you’ve followed Jansen’s career at all, this is what he does. But when he’s on, he can’t be hit.

I wish we had another flame throwing Strider to slam the door shut on these games.
He's been valuable as 5th man in the rotation.

Freddie Freeman has fired his agency group. He wanted to remain in Atlanta. Sickens me how this went down.

I'm surprised it took this long for him to fire that agency.
It was an uncomfortable atmosphere with Freddie's visable sadness and anger the whole series.
They were giving him the wrong advice the whole off-season, ensuring him AA would give in with the 6 year deal and we see the result.
His former teammate buddy Chipper advised him, you're playing a dangerous game. I wouldn't wait around.
In other words take the 5 years Braves were offering and be happy.

That 8 year $168M contract with Olsen kind of stands in the way of that

AA just wasn't going to be forced to do something he didn't want to do, period. Sucks for Freddie that his agent got him into this situation.

Yep. And a deal was eventually going to be reached until the dipshit agent issued an ultimatum.

That’s a sleeze ball agent right out of Jerry McGuire.
