We need to enjoy it while it lasts. This pace just isn't sustainable. Entire lineup is on fire.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Best pitched game of the season IMO.

Homers will happen at Coors Field and both were solo shots.

We weren't walking the yard, the bullpen did a fine job and we finally had a starter go 6.

Fuck Replay...Ozzie was safe.

 

[Mistaken4193]

Perez fucking sucks. Would much rather have Chris Stewart than him as 3rd catcher.

 

[Mistaken4193]

I like Viz but fuck man....GET MORE CONSISTENT!!

 

[Chewbaccer]

I was pretty blitzed when I watched last night's game.

But I'm really not surprised we lost that one. Bettis has been dominant against the Braves his entire career, and Freddie Freeman is 2-20 against him. Some pitchers just have your team's number, and you just have to tip your hat.

Sanchez far exceeded my expectations though.

Get back on track today and win the series.

Back to back homers by Nick Markakis and Dansby Swanson.

Don't know if a more unlikely event has ever happened in the history of time.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Best start of Newcomb's career today.

6 innings, 9 strikeouts, 0 walks, 0 runs at Coors Field. If he could be consistent and keep having good control, he has the stuff of an ace. Command and consistency is all he needs

 

[Chewbaccer]

Great catch by Culberson.

Nice win today. A shutout in Denver. Doesn't happen very often. By far our best pitched game of the season.

And most importantly, another series win.

 

[Chewbaccer]

But Peter Bourjos is a waste of a roster spot. There's nothing he provides that Lane Adams doesn't do better.

I really hope he is the odd man out when Acuna gets called up. Or even when Camargo gets back. Flaherty and Culberson can play OF if need be.

3-0 SERIES RECORD!!

3-0 SERIES RECORD!!

And we got by far our best pitching of the season in Denver. Go figure.

2 out of 3, move on to the next series. The Bobby Cox formula

I'll be happy if we get through the roadtrip on the plus side of .500.

Arguably our toughest stretch of games of the season. 4 straight series against playoff teams from last year, 3 of them on the road. The schedule lightens up a bit when we get back home.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Scherzer vs Teheran tonight. Hopefully we hit Scherzer again, because I highly doubt Teheran can match him pitch for pitch is Scherzer's on.

 

[Hitman Hart]

It has gotten to a point where I have no interest in watching Teheran pitch.

 

[Mistaken4193]

Pretty sure we are going to get murdered tonight with Julio going against the gNats.
