GDT 8/16: A's @ Braves: Turn Back The Clock Night

[bravesnumberone]

You should really change your username.

Dude, get over it. It's OK to express frustration at a team and they still be your team. He had zero reason to pitch around the guy with three straight sliders after putting him down 0-2 with fast balls.

Apparently a Major League - pitcher,catcher,pitching coach and manager each disagree with a message board poster.

that is almost as funny as giles posting 6 cops throwing his wife down and waving their guns in her face

Sure would be nice to complete a sweep tomorrow night--something I'd have never thought possible going into this series. It'd go a long way towards putting the terrible series against the Dodgers behind us.

Going 3-4 vs the Dodgers and As ain't terrible. Especially since we're to the Dodgers what the Nats are to us.

But I'd love to sweep Oakland.

[bravesnumberone]

Yeah, you're right. All three of those pitches weren't terrible and in the dirt. No need to throw what was working. Couldn't possibly do that. It's a moot point anyway. He buckled down, and we won.

Is that supposed to be code? I thought this was a family board?

What happens in real talk, stays in real talk.

... Please?

Should have had a Chop Country throwback night. Maybe changed the board to look like the Scout board for a day.

The Braves are now 2-0 in games that I've attended this year... you're welcome

Your welcome for what? If anything you aren't doing us any favors because you're not attending enough games to cancel Fredi's juju!

Sample size?

Surprising series so far. Nice to see. And Washington is helping us out with the Pirates, though we still have a huge fight ahead to get to the playoffs.

If only we could play the play-in game against strasburg. That would be a guaranteed win.

Right? Maybe we will get to destroy him a couple times in the playoffs.

[BlackwaterPark]

I honestly don't want to get my hopes up, make the playoffs, and either lose in the one game play inn, or get swept in the first round. This team will not get past the first round if they make it.

Easy change. Just don't allow anyone to visit the board for a day.

I mean, I'd love to go far but with how awful we've been much of the year, I'm happy as long as we make it. Aim low, no pressure. Lol

[Heyward]

Had him 0-2 and threw him three straight ****ing sliders. Led to a walk. This team....

Man, you're negative.

[bravesnumberone]

Man, you're negative.

A. Smoltz also criticized the move (But he doesn't know what he's talking about, right?) and it was last night. Do you really feel that compelled to quote it?? Don't even start with me Mr. We're not going to score this inning.

[jason27nc]

Man, you're negative.

I used to not like negativity but this team brings it out in you.
