Pretty embarrassing performance by the offense. Good for Nola and he pitched well, but this was more terrible offense than great pitching.

This is probably the best Nola has looked all year. He's a good pitcher with his A+++++ stuff tonight and his A+++++ command. He might pitch this well two or three times a year. Sucks it's against us.

The way Nola has pitched tonight (and as strong as he was in the eighth inning), that may be a better option than letting us have a crack at their bullpen.Originally Posted by jpx7
This was his third straight start of 8 IP 0-1 ER.
So I don't think it was, and I think this is Nola getting back to the "Ace Nola" of last year.
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.
He's been good the previous 2 too. Nola is back in 2018 mode
Nola was throwing the ball into the catcher's mitt tonight. He is incapable of pitching better than he has tonight.
Snit not gonna give us a shot
Not really much more you can say other than Aaron Nola was outstanding
Chopping With The Braves And Rolling With The Tide
Why is he facing righties
Coppy
Good, but not this good. He smothered one of the best offenses in baseball with ease. I was watching the catcher's glove and it rarely had to move. This is the best Nola can pitch.
he was surely good but it went both ways. Awful at-bats all night.
Batting 6th....smh..Who had the most at bats tonight with runners on?
Oh ya....but it’s ok since Snit has a feeling in his gut and doesn’t like changing what’s been working.
If you look past the results at the underlying foundations, he began the year with 4 legitimately poor outings, and has since been back to ace form for 14 starts (tonight included), oft hidden by poor luck and defense.
We'll find out tomorrow night how much of this was Aaron Nola and how much of it was a bad approach by Braves hitters. Unless we can get to Neris, this will be our first two game losing streak in a while.
Man Chip sure did act as though that was a routine flyball.
It went to the edge of the warning track and he acted like it was a can of corn haha
Snit let Blevins face the rhh with power and now he's going to the rhp vs the rhh without power. Snit doesn't make a lot of sense
Why let Blevins face Franco in the first place?
This.
in the 9th, we'll get one of those HR calls for a ball fielded by the SS.
check out Franco's splits
