2018 Braves

[BornToHuntAndFish]

Braves have not forgotten how to lose or strikeout, losing 8 of the last 10 games, but at least the Phillies are losing now in the 9th inning. Gotta hit to score runs & to win games.

 

[dixiecutter]

I am still not convinced we will finish above 500.

Not slugging at the 3/4/5 lately. We're allowing second to be stolen too much, we can't pitch, and not one outfielder is a threat to challenge a base runner, just sort of toss it in and hope they dont run much.

 

[elfiii]

Just like I predicted. The All Star break is here and the fade has begun.

The pitchers are learning a little more about our young hitters, the second or third time around. They young hitters will need to adjust or else.

Needed that win today

Nice having some Braves in the All-Star lineup.

Seeing Braves in a red National league shirt brings in some 1st thoughts of them being traded to the Washington Nationals.

Put Albies in. NL needs some offense.

Put Albies in. NL needs some offense.

Yeah, I was disappointed to see them pinch-hit for Albies in the 9th, but I get it...it's the all-star game and you want to get as many players as you can in the game. Besides, at 20 YO, you figure Albies will get another chance later in his career (and hopefully, many more chances).

Besides, you can't argue with the results...a game tieing 2 run homer by Gennett.

We need to make a couple of trades that would make Ted Turner proud.

Brad Hand, Joakim Soria and Chris Archer top my wish list. And I wish these beat reporters would PLEASE stop with the Mike Moustakas nonsense. He is not an upgrade over Camargo and definitely not worth trading any prospects for.

 

[biggdogg]

Brad Hand is off the market. Indians got one off my wish list dad-gummit...

 

[someguyintraffic]

Good looking start to the 2 nd half in D.C.

Sanchez got his run support. 8ks

 

[someguyintraffic]

Charlie Culberson should play every game!

Braves had Sherzer and Strausburg arguing in the dugout.

Keep it up Bravos!

 

[BornToHuntAndFish]

Fine team effort after a needed restful All-Star break for game 95 of 162, but 1st place Phillies keep winning to make it for some tough competition. Acuna's lead-off batting was impressive. Nice having Sanchez's good pitching collecting another win. Hope Albies' hamstring issue is not too bad & has a quicker recovery than expected.

A good solid performance!

As a life long Bravo's fan, I have always hated NY teams. I hate them! But over the past thirteen years and ESPECIALLY since 2010, I absolutely despise the Nats.

Brian Harper is the biggest dbag that the sport has ever seen, IMO.

 

[westcobbdog]

Hate they are rained out today..we are playing the Nats tough and giving them all they want lately.

 

[walukabuck]

Got the bad Folty today. Only thing for sure about him is he'll throw a ton of pitches. good or bad.

 

[biggdogg]

Foley has thrown fewer pitches than Sherzer does though 5. Folty is matching Sherzer blow for blow. Not sure which game you're watching.
