Yeah the only criticism I can levy against AA is the lack of a left handed infielder pickup. Thats it. Everything else has been great in my opinion. Even the Duvall deal. Yeah he isn't playing great right now, but he has upside and could be a great bench bat for us moving forward.Originally Posted by msstate7

8 home games this week with 4 of them against a team falling apart. We really need a 5-3 (at worst) week
Plus its a nice boost to get a series win at home. While we've been a great road team, we've been fairly mediocre at home this season. Hopefully this bodes well for a nice homestand
Meh we got kinda lucky today, evens out. But yes. Even then, 2/3 from the Brewers after how they whooped up on us in Mil is a good sign.
I don’t know what’s more enteraining...
Watching a good Braves team, or reading the wide range of emotional swings by folks with no capacity for rational thought haha.
Our next 17 games are against the Marlins (8), Rockies (4), Pirates (3), and Rays (2)... We should be able to win at least 11 of those. The Rockies and Pirates are solid, but very beatable and the Rays/Marlins are not good at all. I feel like this upcoming stretch is our best chance for the rest of the year to gain some ground on the Phillies.
Their next 17 are the Red Sox (2), Mets (5), Nationals (6), Blue Jays (3), and Cubs (1). I think that is a tougher stretch than what we have coming up. Hopefully we can take advantage and the Phillies go on a bit of a slump.
P*ss away a good start from Teheran and rescue Newcomb from a bad start. Baseball is a funny game.
The Rays were 3 games over .500 heading into today. And that’s playing in the AL East. They’re not a bad team at all. This is going to be a tough stretch for the Braves.
the nervous nellies and jumpy jennies are a never ending source of entertainment
"I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."
"I am your retribution."
Looks like Touki starting the first game of the DH on Monday.
I can’t wait to see him
Our pen is in ok shape for the DH. Brach has pitched consecutive days. I would try not to use him. Ditto for Jackson who went multiple innings today.
"I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."
"I am your retribution."
That's not an easy stretch, Rays arent bad, and if Braves get to face Snell, that's gonna be a tough one, he's as good as anyone.
That became pretty likely as soon as you heard talk about Allard not being ready after his last game. IOW, they really didn't want to go back to him again.
I’m stoked! He’s listed as the starter on MLB At-Bat now.
Neck has been red hot. So it's working.
Forever Fredi
There’s a difference between commenting on the situation or showing disgust and making absurd proclamations based on emotion like some do here.
true
"I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."
"I am your retribution."
Not all of us can be soulless robots like Enscheff.

HRs can make up for a huge difference in hits. They had 19 hits but only 1 HR. We had 9 hits but 3 HRs.
