    Elder is going to kill the pen tonight with a double header tomorrow. No off days until June 3 now.

    I can’t even get the kids settled down before the game is already over. Make Elder eat this one. Throw his arm out.

    I survived the dark days so I’ll be fine, but it’s hard to watch a team this talented struggle for absolutely zero reason

    This team, so far this year has a troubling tendency to swing at breaking balls in the dirt. With two strikes, why would anyone throw them anything else.

    Could ask Ozzie anything about baseball and he gets asked if he was a fish, what kind would he be.

    I miss Jon Miller and Joe Morgan.

    Can't win scoring 0. This offense gives us no shot

    Braves have avg'd 3.5 runs/game in May. They can't hit anymore

    Zero effort all-around for Atlanta lately. Sucks to watch, honestly. They’ll rebound but there’s no passion at all.

    To be fair, they had the highest exit velo and hard-hit rate of all teams over the last month. Some bad execution but also legitimately horrendous luck.

    I bet we had the best (empty) swing speed on those swings though.

    Braves have 1 starter with an ops over .800. They suck, period

    4 runs is insurmountable these days. Oh MVP and his sub .700 ops sure ain't gonna bring us back.

    It would take the big 3 of the 90s, Pedro Martinez, and Randy Johnson to win with this offense
