    Same thing with Blair. Fell off a cliff... I don't think it's unusual for minor league pitchers to lose their rhythm or slot or whatever it may be. It should be found and fixed in due time. Not overly concerned until they get a lot older.

    Albies back to Double A, per Bowman. He says they want Albies and Swanson playing together.

    Albies needs to cut down on errors. Not sure if Gwinnett 1b has something to do with throwing errors though

    Wonder if since we robbed our normal AAA manager that we trust our big time prospect more with the AA manager

    Wentz hits a walk-off 2 run homerun off of a complete game effort from Pint in game 7 (Colorado scores 1 run off an error and the matchup was Pint-Wentz).

    They'll never get there without arenado. We'll have him after we trade Teheran+ for him. Yeah, I'm dreaming

    As if Dansby will be held scoreless through 8 innings in a Game 7.

    Get's robbed of a game-tying homerun in the 7th inning. In his first at-bat he gets cut down trying to stretch a double into a triple and then strikes out to begin the bottom of the 9th.

    It's more likely that he's simply not trusting his stuff and overthrowing as a result

    So Swanson is batting 7th. Or is Our pitcher hitting 4th or 5th

    We go to the WS in 2020 after beating the Rockies in game 7 off a Wentz homerun in the 9th. Braves fans are happy everywhere. But we have to face the Red Sox and their ace Julio Teheran

    Because our lineup of Moncada, Benintendi, Swanson, Albies, Meadows, Acuna, Devers, and Schwarz is STACKED
