The Atlanta Braves - Hello darkness my old friend

[sonofUT62]

Exactly. He sucks too

As opposed to Minter and Smith?

 

[AV_12]

Also, nice outing AJ

 

[zjcvols]

Kenley and Matzek come back within the next 10 days. AA will go get a RH pen arm. Yates will be here in August.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Lol… and a walk and a HBP and Ozuna’s defense and a hit

Game changed because the out wasn't made at 2nd.

 

[LotteryPick]

I understand this but they’re 1st in fWAR and 3rd in xFIP coming into today

What do they look like in high leverage? That’s a legitimate question, not trying to be a smart ass.

As opposed to Minter and Smith?

Smith always sucked. Minter has been good this year. His defense let him down. Out at 2nd and the ball that hit for Votto

This. And also Chavez doesn’t suck.

 

[vols 30]

Wonder how much it would take to get David Robertson off the Cubs. He's having a Great year.

I wouldn’t exactly say it changed, but that definitely is a play that has to be made.

Good lord. Yes he does

And Votto's pop up that dropped. 2 outs given up by the defense.

Good lord man. No he doesn’t. See I can do that too?

Lol. Let's see who's pitching important innings down the stretch. I 100% guarantee it won't be Chavez because that's when you use your good relievers.

 

[CagleMtnVol]

Really cool

Perfection in ASMR!

You mean like when he started a bullpen game in the NLCS last year? Or the 2 appearances he made during the Series ? You should stop. You’re embarrassing yourself.

 

[LotteryPick]

Oof

 

[sonofUT62]

Oof

Is it really a demotion if you go from living in Oakland to Vegas? If I played for the A’s I would stink it up too.

 

[Volfan1000]

I have to hang this tough loss on Snitker because he took Morton out too early when he was pitching a hell of a game with 10 K's today.

Some certainly do.

Some thrive and put up big power numbers in the low pressure, low expectations, and low coverage of the organization……………..

Gonna be a long 8 years

He’s pushing 40 and was already at 94 pitches. I doubt he had much left. If he had given up even one run in the 8th you’d be dogging Snit for leaving him in.

I was talking about Donaldson!!!!

So did Dylan Lee. Who pitched the 7,8,9 in those games?

7 appearances in the post season . 0 ER. I’m not claiming he’s Matzek. But he doesn’t suck. Don’t know how else to tell you.
