tOfficial 2019 Braves season thread

[Rod Freakin' Dangerfield]

Braves won’t win this one. 1 run lead with this shit bullpen. Not optimistic.

 

[Chewbaccer]

I like Josh Tomlin.

9 strikeouts and 0 walks. Why don't we use him more?

He gave up a few runs in Cleveland, but I think that was a product of a veteran knowing the situation with an 11-2 lead.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Keep smoking the ball, Dansby, they'll eventually find holes. 3 rockets tonight and nothing to show for it.

 

[Chewbaccer]

I'll give the pen props tonight.

They did good.

Now build on it, please.

But then again, there was no Biddle or Sobotka used.

And maybe Minter has found his groove. That's two stress free saves in a row.

 

[Chewbaccer]

And winning a 3-1 game is huge to me. It has seemed like we need to score 10 to win.

 

[RubinRock]

Like I’ve been saying all season, Luke Jackson for MVP

 

[Rod Freakin' Dangerfield]

Setting the over/under for homers given up by Teheran tonight in Cincinnati (if the game isn't rained out) at 2.5.

Last night was big for the Braves. Winning a game 3-1 where the bullpen didn't give up a hit and only walked 1 over 3+ innings. Tomlin has been solid, I don't understand why we don't go to him more. Can't be any worse than Biddle or Sobotka. Jackson continues to role and it looks like Winkler has found whatever it was he found to start last year. You have to be willing to go to the guys that will get the job done. Don't keep going back to Biddle and Sobotka because you like them.

Sobotka needs to go to Gwinnett.

Biddle needs to go to Sri Lanka.

going to the game on Saturday night

wooooo

Nick Markakis batting lead off tonight with Ozzie getting a night off.

Wait, what?

Nick Markakis batting lead off tonight with Ozzie getting a night off.

Wait, what?

Yea, I don't get that either. Pull Donaldson and let Camargo play 3rd. Shit, he should be starting anyway.

Guess they’re serious about giving everyone days off. Horseshit to me. Ripken’s record needs to go down

Donaldson has actually been great the last few weeks. Much more in favor of Inciarte getting pulled, moving Acuña to center and playing Camargo/Culberson in left.

[Chewbaccer]

He can do it when nobody is watching.

His asshole puckers up when the lights are shining bright though.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Votto is still a whiny bitch.

And I think Julio found a new pitch for lefties. Like it so far. Looks like that 2 seamer Maddux used to throw to lefties for the strikeout.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Newcomb's gonna do good at AAA, and he's probably gonna rejoin the rotation at some point, but when Folty comes back, Newk ain't taking a job from Folty, Fried or Gausman, he shouldn't from Soroka, and I trust Julio far more than Newk.

Like Kelsey’s.
