1) AA is a ****ing idiot for not addressing the bullpen flaws and 2) Snit has put on a mismanaging clinic late in close games this year
Braves facing their 3rd 4-game losing streak 1 month in the season
DOB: Travis d'Arnaud will go on the IL and rookie catcher William Contreras will be activated to replace him. Snitker said d'Arnaud's injury is "not good" and could be serious, but they'll wait for diagnosis after he's flown back to Atlanta to be examined by team doctor Sunday.
We're about to have pache, contreas/Jackson, and pitcher in the lineup every night. The pitching better tighten up or this season will go south quickly

When in the hell in recent memory of any team that you can recall...from your little league team as a kid to the Braves now have you seen such a **** pitching pitching staff “tighten” up or “righy the ship”? We have blowpen full of Quad A guys and Liberty thinks this **** flies and most importantly, thinks this fan base is too fckn stupid to realize. We brought back a guy that we DFAd in 2019 and was DFAd twice in 2020 in Biddle...Nate Jones, Grant Dayton, Luke Jackson, biddle, Santana, and Tomlin are all Quad A guys...in essence...we have a major league ready offense with a pitching strategy in roster building as if we are rebuilding...
I’m not worried Liberty will make the nessasary moves to fill the holes by opening the checkbook up....
Frustrating game and sounds like no TDA for a long while
Chopping With The Braves And Rolling With The Tide
I warned everyone before the season started.
Coppy
What I’m afraid of for TDA, since they’re going to have an MRI done in him, we may be looking at worse than a broken thumb for him. Hope I’m wrong, but sounds like a ligament injury
Chopping With The Braves And Rolling With The Tide
Seems like the perfect time to option Alex Jackson and sign lucroy.
What 40 man roster move will be made to recall Contreras since he's not on 40 man roster?
Oppps-- Contreras is on 40 man but Mathis is NOT. So a roster move would be necessary for Mathis to be activated.

Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth
And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;......
And, while with silent, lifting mind I’ve trod
The high untrespassed sanctity of space,
Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.
High Flight
