Congrats Swanson. Get your struggles out this year to dominate next.

Unreal. That's Swanson's 3rd inside the park homer this year. Crazy

Must be Swanson's hair

[Ozzie Swanson]

Am I crazy to think that Perez could hold down the bottom of the rotation for us next year. Ever since struggling really early in the year his velocity has been way up and he's looked pretty good. I know he still has to prove it but I wouldn't hate him starting in the rotation next year.

Maybe. He won't sniff the rotation in 2 years. But next year could be a stop gap.

Id be down with that. I see him as a trade chip at some point

[bravesfanMatt]

I watched the video of Swanson homer. Gio should get to smack each I the OF. Lazy terrible on all of them.

[UNCBlue012]

Another hit for Inciarte.

[thewupk]

Ender is a beast

[thewupk]

Swanson seems to have gotten his defense legs under him too. Was -1 DRS early on but now up to +1. Kid's gonna be a keeper I think.

Everything about Garcia screams horrible two-hole hitter, but my lord he's been good in the spot.

video of the inside the park?

Mlb.com has it. Made it around bases in 14.something.

Adonis is a good fastball hitter. If ender is on base he is probably getting more fastballs.

It doesn't help that he has two of the best performing hitters of the second half around him.

[bravesfanMatt]

That promising inning just went into the crapper.

[Enscheff]

It's like we have all forgotten what it's like to have a few players all hitting well at the same time haha.

We have :( we also haven't seen many hitting streaks like the ones by Freeman and Ender in a while!
