    I'm sure Wright would've liked to have worked the seventh but Snit's doing what he needs to do.

    Smith replaces Wright in 7th with 1 out after the BB to Davis and 98 pitches. Wright had a very good game backing up his last game.

    This is the Kyle Wright I was so excited about drafting with the fifth overall pick back in 2017. I'm just hoping he can sustain the performances he's given us in the last two games.

    I can just take credit for Fried really. Was confident in Anderson buy Wright is a surprise.

    Its starting to crystallize now that the pitching heavy strategy was the right move.

    If Soroka doesn't blow out his leg the braves are as good as anyone.

    Next year will be lit.

    Want to build the popularity of baseball? How about hiring announcers that don’t talk **** about the modern game, and instead talk about how great it is?

    I showed the stuff was always there, he just needed to execute. Hopefully he has worked things out and can be that 3 he’s capable of being.

    I was literally just about to post that perhaps Acuna was becoming a little too patient and getting himself into tough counts, and then he hits a bases clearing triple the other way.

    You’d think I’d eventually learn my lesson doubting Acuna.

    We all know that there are some guys whose projected upside just never seems to materialize. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't starting to think that Wright might be one of those guys.

    I really hope someone hits Acuna in 1st round of playoffs. That seems to make him catch fire
