    Nor will he. Fried will just have to be that much better.

    Hope that back hand was cool, Dansby.

    Also, these first inning fails are getting old. Bloop hits, errors, random infield singles that find a hole. It makes no sense but they need to tighten up

    Fortunately, Dansby's error only cost Fried half a dozen pitches but no runs.

    That slider to Riley was unfair.

    Thankfully, I missed most of Game 1 and may miss some of Game 2, but I honestly just thought they’d get up for this one. Everyone seems lethargic, and I’m not trolling either. It’s just weird.

    At some point the Braves are going to have to be able to put up more competitive at bats against good pitching. Like that one by TDA.

    Like I said...would rather see Heredia or Grossman stand there and bunt for a hit.

    Just DFA Marcel. He’s just a ****ing idiot at the plate. Totally useless in the vast majority of his at-bats. Scherzer finally throws a mistake slider and he pops it up.

    According to Chip he “dig deep into his arsenal to throw something he doesn’t throw often”. Can’t make it up

    Ozuna's foul out was somehow worse than the 4 Ks preceding him

    Isn't JD Martinez a free agent next year? I'm tired of Ozuna as our DH.

    Popped it up would be fine..His dumb ass was off stride and knees locked. He’s started every form RH off with a slider…how was he not sitting on that?

    Canha saw Fried well there. He'll probably wind up burning us tonight.

    The amount of movement on Scherzer’s fastball has been incredible.

    Also, he just rung up Adrianza something fierce
