    Even if we go down 0-2 I think we can still win the series if Melancon can figure things out. This thing is far from over.
    thank you weso1!

    Just like in the 2012 WC game, the hottest pitcher in baseball will lose in the postseason. This time it's the cardinals' guy though. Braves win tomorrow... I have spoken

    Is Teheran fighting injuries? Seems like he went side arm a lot at the end of this season.
    thank you weso1!

    I hope your right but I think we are Finnish.
    I don’t trust Folty to keep us in the game.

    Call me nuts. If the Braves go down 0-2, they win the series.

    You’re delusional. Even if we somehow came back to make it 2-2 we all know they’ll do the most Braves thing possible and go down big in game 5, somehow get within 1 and lose. The ultimate tease.

    Of course the Braves win tomorrow. They always win Game 2 (except for last year when they were over matched), and this Braves team never loses more than 4 games in a row. They've lost 4 in a row now dating back to the end of the regular season.

    There's 3 options with Folty tomorrow:

    1. He gets crushed. There's even history here, but some of it is before last year and before sinker Folty showed up.
    2. He dominates and shocks us all. 7 IP with 10 Ks.
    3. Folty doesn't make it deep because he gets overheated.
    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.

    The Cardinals weren't thrilled by how Ronald Acuña Jr. rounded the bases on his 9th inning homer, enough that Yadier Molina went to the mound to calm Carlos Martinez down afterwards.

    Postgame, Martinez said: "I wanted him to respect the game & respect me as a veteran player."

    Lol someone might want to tell him Molina was pumping his fists after he threw out Acuña in the first inning of game 1 like he was Jordan after sinking a game winning shot in game 7.

    Baseball culture ****ing sucks.

    The best player in this series had an amazing game both offensively and defensively and he’s somehow the villain on both sides.

    Snitker is the real villain here.

    I forgot to add. One part of part 3 is he actually gets good results. But the key might be him leaving. Unless Snitker does well with off script stuff and lets a guy like Fried go.

    If Acuna gets plunked then look for Folty to tag Molina. It could get ugly quick.

    The loss should surprise no one; braves are 8-12 after an open date.
