Strikeout or HR from Olson here…

If they had called Grissom up after Ozzie got injured the Braves legitimately might have the top 3 NL rookies of the year. Unbelievable.

Would you rather have Harris, Grissom and Strider or Ohtani??

 

[VolPack22]

Wow a shocking 2-run single for Olson!

 

[cobbwebb0710]

I like Contreras! He’s a very solid player.

That’s tough. I think I would lean towards Ohtani because he is essentially two players, so really you would only be worrying about replacing Grissom who is an infielder and the Braves are set in the infield once Ozzie is back.

I wonder if Grissom will be in those trade talks for Ohtani next time around.

I’m glad @VolPack22 mentioned it was a doubleheader in the FF because this was feeling like the longest game.

There was a rain delay from those Acuña and Grissom bombs

Noob!

In fairness, every game involving the Marlins feels like a million years. They always have a bunch of no-names so it’s hard to get invested in them.

I have a funny feeling that’s who I’ll be watching in Atlanta...

Hold on, give me a minute.

I see the Mets barely won a game that deGrom pitched today 1-0. That entire franchise hates him. The Braves would know how to treat him right

When's his contract up ... I'm sure the Braves would be interested to get him.

He has a player opt out after this season. If he opts in though he wouldn’t become an unrestricted free agent until probably 2025 because there is a club option for 2024, which would likely be picked up.

Okie dokie then.

These Braves & Marlins games must feel like TN vs AL in football. Braves always beat Fish.
We all know the record w/AL playing the Vols each year.

We've already loss that game & haven't even played those guys yet.
Each year in football we start off 0-2 or 0-3.

 

[VolPack22]

Dodgers have scored 8+ runs in 6 out of 7 games now and on the verge of winning their 12th in a row. Only 3 losses since the All-Star break. They might win their division by 25 games and very likely to break the single season wins record if this keeps up. The Braves have the offense to match the Dodgers while the Mets have the pitching to match them. But neither have what the other needs. Not looking good for the rest of the league.

She also said alligators are ornery because they got all them teeth, but no toothbrush.
