Braves keep on rolling - 4 straight division titles

[msstate7]

This one is really satisfying to me considering how terrible we were early, lost players (Acuna, ozuna, TDA for a large chunk, and soroka), and only a 7% of playoffs in mid-July.

AA is the best GM in the game IMO.

Beat brewers!

[Commercecomet24]

This was a hard fought title. All the injuries and other stuff. They basically rebuilt the team and snit did a great job managing. AA did a great job with the mid season rebuild. Will Smith still scares me lol! Lotta heart on this team!

[parabrave]

AA did a great job. Glad I put some money down on them winning the East. Time to go put it on the Under for our game.

[BeardoMSU]

Happy for you.

How with this impact your general attitude in the game thread tomorrow, though?**

I'm actually going to a braves' game tomorrow night, so I probably won't bother you guys too much lol

Last weekend State lost, Pats Lost, Bucs lost, the Braves were the only thing that salvaged the weekend, lol!

Thankfully Dallas won Monday the Braves have swept the Phillies and
clinched so I'm looking forward to State blowing out the Aggie's*** to complete a great week!

The trades he made were incredible. Soler and Duval represent the first time that 2 deadline deal players hit 12 HR each for 1 team. After losing Ozuna and Acuna, that is a huge injection for the offense.

[StarkVegasSteve]

Just an incredible job by the entire team. From AA and the front office all the down to Snit and the team. I really believe the struggles of this season grew some players up. I think Austin Riley is a perfect example. I mean you get Acuna and possibly Ozuna back next year and add them in with this version of Austin Riley and a hopefully re signed Adam Duvall and man.....that lineup will be SCARY.

AND GET THE DEAL DONE TO MAKE FREDDIE A BRAVE FOR LIFE!!!!

Do we REALLY want Ozuna back? His numbers, even before roughing up his wife, weren't great. He was better at mimicking the fake "selfie" with Ozzie and Acuna~

If he's reinstated, we don't have a choice, do we? Can't really eat that contract

This is a must!

I'd rather have Soler and Duvall. Ozuna is horrible defensively and wasn't even hitting much.

[trob115]

I was about to say the same thing. Duval & Soler are far superior players than Ozuna..

We need Morton & Fried to pitch lights out this postseason. If Soroka was healthy, I would put the Braves as my favorites to win the pennant. Brew crew will be a tough draw.

I feel good about Morton and Fried. The guy who really needs to be lights out is Ian Anderson. Having a quality 3rd starter in the post season is critical.

[trob115]

Would certainly help. I'm not confident in him, but he has been decent in the postseason before.

[Commercecomet24]

Agreed and it would sure be nice if Ynoa found it again. That dude can absolutely dominate when hes going good, plus he can rake too.

[CaptainObvious]

Is he still the front man flute playing leader of Jethro Tull? That guy can bring it on the flute for sure!

[OLJWales]

Congrats to the Braves from a Mets and Royals fan.

[shoeless joe]

Ian Anderson looks like a young jomo…

I don’t see this team getting out of the first round but the way they have the LDS scheduled it could allow advantageous bullpen usage.

Bump for playoffs -

My boy Ian Anderson shutting them down in game 3 (just like I called it).

Braves in the drivers seat with a chance to take the series at home tomorrow.

[shoeless joe]

Really need to win it tomorrow. Gonna face a fully rested woodruff or burnes if it goes 5. Don’t know if they’ll bring burnes back on short rest tomorrow.

Young jomo threw well today. He’s def got some October moxie about him.

Burnes not starting

[Commercecomet24]

Baserunning has to get better. Been atrocious. Probably cost game 1 and almost today. What Duvall did today maybe one of the stupidest things I've ever seen on a baseball field. Now let's go win tomorrow!

[MaroonFlounder]

Charlie Mort on 3 days rest tomorrow?

Is there any way to START Joc Peterson and sit either Rosario or Duval? Dude is clutch.

Good question on starter. I don't know if they'll throw Charlie on 3 days rest but they might. Joc has been clutch.

Yona is starting

[Commercecomet24]

Yona is starting

Thats what I would've done but snit didn't ask me lol! I think it's a great move. You want to win tomorrow but if you don't you got Charlie for game 5, and if you win tomorrow you got Charlie for game 1 of nlcs

[shoeless joe]

I’da like to have seen Morton tomorrow. Still had fried on normal rest for game 5

[msstate7]

Ynoa should be treated as an opener. Please don't let him see the lineup twice, snit

[Commercecomet24]

Yeah gotta be real careful with how far you go with him unless Braves have a huge lead which probably ain't happening in this series

[shoeless joe]

If ynoa is down in the zone and his slider is on he’s filthy. But 3 innings max I would imagine.

[Commercecomet24]

Yeah he has electric stuff but he hasn't been right since he came back. Before the injury he was becoming a stud

[trob115]

Desperately needs a 3rd pitch. He could be a solid 3 in the rotation with a usable change up. Hopefully he learns a splitter in the off-season

[Commercecomet24]

Charlie Morton will be on the hill today! Let's get it done!

[KOdawg1]

Feels like a must win today. I think Brewers have the advantage in game 5. Bats need to win us one today. Pitching has done their part, but it's hard to keep banking on them every game. Let's put 6-7 on them.

[BrunswickDawg]

I like it!

My son is going - he's on fall break from VSU and his girlfriends parents scored tickets. It will be his first Braves game at Truist (been to the Ted)

Man I wish I was there! I know he'll have a blast! I like the move. Charlies a veteran and short rest won't affect him mentally/preparation wise like it would a younger pitcher. Also Snit wouldn't be doing this if Charlie hadn't said I'm good to go. If you win, You got Max well rested for game 1, if you lose Max on full rest for game 5. Not a bad move at all.

Joc is hitting 6th today!

Vs a lhp, sigh

[Commercecomet24]

Ah Joc will be alright. They don't call him Joctober for nothing lol.

[Commercecomet24]

At this point I'd rather have him in there than rosario.

[BrunswickDawg]

Did you see that Anderson's 0.76 ERA across 5 post-season starts is the lowest in MLB post-season history

[Commercecomet24]

Did you see that Anderson's 0.76 ERA across 5 post-season starts is the lowest in MLB post-season history

I knew he'd been great in playoffs, but didn't realize it was that low. Wow!

[msstate7]

I'd go heredia. None of these 3 are good hitters vs lhp, but heredia is a good defender. Guess you might wanna save D for late though

[Commercecomet24]

Yeah I think Snit's just trying to play the hot hand at this point. We need more offense early in the game. Heredia is definitely the better defender.

[Commercecomet24]

dang we just lost soler to covid! he's off the roster with postive test!

[BrunswickDawg]

I blame MS7 for wanting Heredia in the line up

[Commercecomet24]

Yep his fault no doubt!

[msstate7]

Wow, this sucks. We've won with pitching anyway, I guess

[shoeless joe]

So how long is silver out? Is it a certain number of days or negative tests?

[Commercecomet24]

Onto the LCS!

[BrunswickDawg]

My son going as well. He lives in mid-town now

Looks like our boys brought some luck!

Freddie does it again. On to the NLCS

[Prentis]

I wish we had Acuna, and Soroka available for this run

[Commercecomet24]

I wish we had Acuna, and Soroka available for this run

Me too but this team has some big stones!

[parabrave]

The Giants or Dodgers are going to be tough.

Texted him after last out, and told em he had to go to nlcs
