The Atlanta Braves

[zjcvols]

Admittedly was skeptical about Weiss, mainly because it seemed like another Braves way type deal, but 19 games in and he has gained my full confidence that he can navigate a season and win big

I am incredibly grateful that we have a manager that understands using a good reliever down 1 or 2 runs is more important than using a good reliever up 5 runs

This bullpen shuttle we’re running will make your head spin. Do other teams do this?

Lots of young guys and that’s not really Riley or Olson’s thing but you can tell Walt can command a room

Yup. That’s just something you have, being a good and productive player doesn’t equate to team leader. Olson leads by example, but this team very often has needed a “make you uncomfortable/challenge you” leader when you need to feel it. Haven’t had that in the clubhouse in years, until now. The Soler thing is fun and all but that happening this early was a blessing for this team

Still think they need an alpha on the field, which I don't think they have.

And that’s more than fair to say, but at least there is real accountability. But yea, need a player that will pound tables during the lulls.

Yes, everybody does

Maybe a vet like Dom will do that.

Rather have Karinchak, but Hamilton has a good amount of success at the ML level as well.

Now if we could just get rid of Payamps....

Maybe a vet like Dom will do that.

Dubon seems pretty fiery too.

Nobody gives a **** what Mauricio dubon has to say lol

Mets already in last place and 5 games out of 1st. Everything is right in the world again.

Too late at this point for it to be as fun as it would have been otherwise. And he never wanted out himself.

Michael Harris with a cool 100 pts between his woba and his xwoba

In the interest of everybody having a good day I was going to leave Matt Olson out of it!

Agree. It's been a few years since he had a great year. Nobody is getting that Mike Trout again
