Bryce Harper Megathread

Love his heart. Wish we had him.

Hey, Bryce, Yogi Berra on the phone for you. He says it's over...

[jpx7]

Love his heart. Wish we had him.

Hate his heart; wish I could eat it and gain his power.

The Nats sure talk a lot for a sub .500 ball club. It's not over, but they need to do more winning before doing more talking.

We have an easier schedule moving forward too.

One of my favorite shots in that show. Never thought I'd be that attracted to a blonde masticating a horse-heart.

[DaneHill]

That's a clown statement.

So you don't feel left out.

And... we just went into wild wild joe west territory.

I tell you man.

I mentioned last night that this was the type of tomfoolery that Patio was specifically crusading against and working judiciously to solve.

That problem has manifested itself here and I'm not sure what will be the consequences.

Seriously?

Did two years ago not teach you anything? It's far from close to being over. We've seen the Braves blow an 8 game lead in one month so we surely can blow a 10 game lead in 2 months. I'm not saying it's likely but let's not get ahead of ourselves.

That was due to injuries and a lot of bad luck creating a perfect storm of suckitude. The magic number for the division if we win tonight will be 44. The division lead will be 11 should we hold out tonight, if that gets to 15 I will be ready to call it. The Phillies have fallen off a cliff lately and the Nats are really the only competition now. We will likely be at 99% playoff odds with a win tonight.

Well Bryce, 11 down...54 to go... doesn't look too good considering the Braves weak schedule to end the year.

[Pugfan]

Nothing wrong with what he said. I probably would of said something similar if I was a player for the Nationals.

[bravebonebook]

OK, Bryce is right for saying it because he is a great, fiery ball player. But my negativity to it is from the same disgust I get from hearing MLB pundits talk about the Nats. My belief is that most feel the Braves are just lucky for winning this year (have gotten all the breaks).

Nats deserve it, right? I mean, they have won the division for what, 7 or 8 years in a row now?? It's a complete fluke that the Braves are in first place...

[Pugfan]

I think most experts thought the Braves had a good chance to win the division. After all the Braves did win 94 games last year and improved the lineup a lot in the offseason and improved the bullpen.

[DaneHill]

Ok, that caught me by surprise. Laughed so loud my parents wanted to know what's up. Could NOT tell them why.

OK, then tell me where I should be listening, cause I seem to keep hearing more how the Nats and Philthies are under-achieving or injury bitten rather than about the Braves who are simply Overcoming and Achieving.
