    With a week left to play the Braves will be about 5 games out of a playoff spot.

    He's had a horrible August but he hasn't been complete trash the rest of the time

    Well, this was another crappy loss. Surprisingly, the Phillies won, so that hurts as well. Our players need to grow up and win some games. Not hard!!

    Next 2 are pretty close to must wins with 7 against Red Sox and dbacks this week. It's very realistic braves are in 2nd place next Sunday with Phillies having 6 games vs marlins and Mets

    It seems like every bad bounce or mistake kills us lately. We've given away about 4 games over the last two weeks.

    I don't know, these 2 stretches:

    May 23rd-June 16th: .172/.219/.283

    July 13th-August 30th: .240/.282/.298

    Have suggested he's been mostly bad since then.
    Aggression with prospects is fine, but being stupid is not. There should be a way to find a happy medium between a Pirates like idea of being overly cautious with prospects and going stupidly fast with prospects.

    Seriously, though. [MENTION=1]Ronald Rump[/MENTION], we’re banning [MENTION=1873]Southcack77[/MENTION], right? I made a promise to the subscription holders.

    Well, he admitted that he's been horrible in August, which encompasses your second range of dates there. But it probably not fair to throw July in with the August considering he batted over .300 in July with a 108 wRC+ which was his second best of any month this year. The month of June he had a 101 wRC+ which isn't great but its not bad. Average to slightly above average. May was pretty bad and August has been his worst.

    How is Granderson any more of an impact pick up than Duda? And I don't think we were ever looking for another starter

    it’s honestly bad luck. We’ve had absolutely none recently.
