It's official. Thank god too because this staff past Soroka and Fried was getting ROUGH.




He wants a bigger long term deal. Boras probably had him do a 1 year deal right now to enter the market again this Winter to get that big long term deal. Braves probably aren't willing to pay the kind of cash Boras is looking for
Julio’s been pretty damn reliable too

Use the Keuchel signing to build some momentum. Need AT LEAST 2 out of 3 if not a weep in Miami this weekend.

Soroka vs. trash Urena should be an automatic win. If ANYONE else were pitching I'd say drill Urena since Gausman missed him last time. But not Soroka. Can't risk him being suspended.

I hope we're not weeping after the weekend series in Miami.

We need to be a gap between Folty and Gausman in the mean time. Just seems like back to back losses every time through the rotation

OK, I have a real problem with how Shitker is putting the lineup together, & it centers around Albies.

Stop fucking batting him 8th!! How can a career baseball man like Shitker not know this?! By batting him 8th, you completely take his ability to steal out of play, because you want to clear the pitcher. Never bat a base stealer 8th in the NL.

Next thing, & this isn’t as major, but....Markakis needs to drop. He’d actually be a good 8 hole hitter.

1-Acuna
2-Swanson
3-Freeman
4-Riley
5-$23 million
6-Albies
7-Markakis
8-SHITTY catcher
9-pitcher (or Teheran or Gausman if they’re playing)

Why would you want a catcher batting 8th? Thats fucking stupid. Basically makes the pitcher at bat useless because even if the catcher is bunted to 2nd he might not be able to score on a base hit by the leadoff hitter.

You WANT a fast guy batting 8th.

No. You’re fucking stupid. Can’t have a base stealer batting 8th, as it takes away his opportunity to steal. Now, maybe not a catcher, but a decent base runner like Markakis.

Fucker.

8th place is often considered a 2nd leadoff hitter you dumbfuck.
