Thank You 2018 Atlanta Braves

**CrimsonCowboy** · 10-08-2018, 07:51 PM

What a season. I don’t know of any Braves fan who predicted this season. Three straight 90 loss seasons, the Coppy controversy right after last season ended, who could have guessed? I thought a .500 record would have been success. Cannot say enough for a group of guys who defied the odds and didn’t listen to those who said it couldn’t be done. Thank you Atlanta Braves for an unexpected, incredible run. It was a fun ride this year. Tonight, the season may have ended. But, something special may be beginning.

has been a great year to be a Braves fan...my secret pleasure this season was watching the crafty craftsmanship of Anibal the Canibal...he also turned out to be a valued and respected member of the Council of Elders...hope AA brings him back

It was an awesome season. It didn’t end the way we wanted it to but it ended with an unexpected playoff run and that made up for the past 3 seasons. Big things are coming for the Braves!

**cajunrevenge** · 10-08-2018, 08:05 PM

This was the dry run. We should only get better for the next 3 years.

Very enjoyable season.

Incredible year. I’m beyond happy to have been a part of it.

**salmagundy** · 10-08-2018, 09:56 PM

I am very happy to have seen this year turn into a clear vision of things to come. Fan response this year will build as the team matures and over comes this year's short comings.

Ditto. Previous few years even though I bought MLBtv a couple times I never watched more than a couple innings every other game before I stopped completely. This year I watched most of the games I could when I had the chance.
Looking forward to an improved roster next year and a full year of the Ronald.

I'd also like to add that I'm incredibly encouraged by how well the young guys progressed. We had a few hiccups with players like Gohara, but overall, we've seen terrific results. Acuna, Albies, Newcomb, Touki, Fried (when healthy), etc.; all these guys really rose to the occasion.

Great year. I thought they'd come in with between 70 and 75 wins, so I was pleasantly surprised. Just a lot of key performances and the guys who slumped in either half of the season were picked up by guys who played better during those lulls.

Add Folty to the list of guys who took a big step forward.

This was a really fun season. I needed it personally as I went through a divorce this summer so this was a great distraction. I probably watched 100 or so games which is the first time I have done that in close to a decade. Already bought season tickets for next year. Cannot wait!

Better than the dry run we've experienced over the last 4 years

I thought the last four years was dry penetration. Not dry runs.

Nice season, but man did they play horribly in the playoffs...really didn't deserve to win the one they did.

That's not how baseball works...

**Heyward** · 10-09-2018, 03:52 PM

Was a great year, better than anyone could have thought. Just hope it wasnt a fluke and it's the start of something special going forward.

Haha...i know, but still even that game was bad for them and they were extremely lucky.

Don't forget Soroka in his short time this season. I'm so proud of these guys and looking forward to next season more than I am disappointed!
