    I'm guessing you're not talking about Newk?

    I’m just sick of this team always screwing around. So damn annoying.

    Has Bae always been a "side saddle" fielder? Seems like he does it, whether he needs to or not.

    It...to be honest, wouldn't shock me if Greinke throws a CGSHO today. This team is in such a very bad place right now, outside the 2nd Toronto game, it's been terrible offensively after the Yankees series.
    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.

    Don’t worry. I’ve been assured by the experts on this board that he’s the next Jose Ramirez.

    Ah... Game threads... Everything that happens is a guarantee for the rest of the game, if not the season. No chance the Brave score today.

    To be fair on that earlier changeup, it looked just outside until literally the last second and I think a just outside pitch got called on Albies earlier. That last second tail into the right handed box is sick.

    Aside from Ozzie’s two home runs on Wednesday, the Braves haven’t hit a homerun in a week and a half. That’s...not good.

    This division is so bad that 90 wins is going to do it for it...and unless anyone upgrades immensely will promptly get disposed of in the NLDS anyway. Phillies have the pitching to do it, but can't hit if they don't get Machado.

    With the leadoff hitter being LHed, I don’t think I’d let Newk go more than 19 batters today.

    He isn’t the answer of course, but in all fairness...just about everyone is in a funk.

    Swanson looked clueless on 2 sliders and then Greinke tries to sneak a fastball inside. Why?

    That needed to be a "line drive over SS".

    It sucks, because I like him a lot, but Ender is killing us at the top of the lineup.
