    Isn't he just a fantasy baseball analyst? That's where my head went.

    Well, they go back to LA where the Braves are 1-10 in their last 11 games at LAD. Dodgers have Buehler, Urias, BP game, Max, Buehler if it goes 7, thats still some tough games to win. Series is a LONG way from done.

    I bet on the Dodgers to repeat, but the series could very easily be 1-1 or even 2-0 Dodgers. It's a bit premature to be saying this is over. Dodgers have a hell of a ball club, top to bottom one of the best teams ever. It's gonna take alot to knock them out.

    2. Probably because every single player we have in the AZL have been God awful thus far. And it has been speculated that Langeliers hasn’t played because he’s probably on the playoff taxi squad and he will join the team after the Braves are out of the playoffs

    For sure. We really need to win one in LA IMO. Obviously Morton in G3 would be sweet, as I'm assuming that we'd lose the BP game vs Urias. We can certainly do it, and I think we will, but they are going to be really tough to close out. I'd be shocked if this doesn't go at least 6

    IF we win Game 3, why wouldn't we just go with either Ynoa or Smyly as the starter in Game 4 in hopes of saving some bullpen arms? Probably not a sound strategy and it would require being up 3-0, but I don't know why Smyly's on the post-season roster if he's not going to pitch.

    Yeah, already circled G4 as a loss. Said after the game, just find a way to steal one in LA, obviously winning 2 is the ideal scenario but not counting on that happening. Havent had much luck playing there, the games were at least close even though we got swept in the RS series. Hope we can steal one there, because i dont want this 3-2 LA with the season relying on Anderson with Scherzer on the other side.

    Well, Roberts just said Urias could be pushed back to G5 for an extra day of rest. Gonna depend how long Buehler goes as well.

    Another bullpen day would be ideal for Atlanta. Even with yesterday off, they have to be tired. I think Game 5 was scheduled to be a BP day regardless but it would help to give it another day.

    On that note, I think Walker shoves today... but so does Charlie.

    That's exactly what Ron Darling pointed out. Over and over, as though he had bet his salary on them and was willing it to come true.

    I don't think this team minus Muncy, a functioning Bellinger, Kershaw, Bauer and peak Turner is one of the best teams ever.
