    I didn't get to see much of the game, but it looks like Blair did a great job!

    IMO he's already one of the best players on the roster.

    Yeah. He's played at a 3 WAR level so far which would be our 3rd best regular.

    This hot streak cost us a better pick, but it isn't all bad... look at the crowd into this game. This team is getting its fanbase back excited

    Absolutely. I understand people are frustrated with us losing the number one pick and possibly a top 5 spot, but I've really enjoyed this team and I think the fans are beginning to buy into what we Coppy has been selling!

    A chance to win the last 5 series while eliminating two teams (and pushing the Mutts to the brink) is what's on the line tomorrow.

    If you say you believed that was possible 8 weeks ago, you're lying.

    Not entirely sure I've been as geeked to see a game since 1995.

    Has there EVER been a statement and question a certain someone should absolutely never have made and asked publicly more than...

    Kinda pathetic to see yourself as a message board knight in shining armor. How impotent does someone have to be in real life to resort to playing hero on a message board?

    That's why I think some will be surprised when Coppy makes a big trade or 2 this offseason.

    I don't mind losing The top pick at all. The #1 pick guarantees nothing. I want to see my teams win. The Braves have shown to be fighters and I love seeing it.

    And we would have had to lose a lot more games to have received the number one pick. The Twins are going to finish 10 games behind us. I would much rather have won (and the implicit good performances that occur when you win) then to have blown that badly.

    Now tomorrow... I'm more than fine losing a game that 100% guarantees a better draft pick. No shame losing tomorrow.

    Blair stinks it up for most of his audition and then throws a great game against a play-off contender. Baseball is a very odd game.

    yeah, I liked that Blair.

    one thing that gives hope is that 2 of his 3 starts after the mechanical changes were very good. But I am not marking him down for a spot until I see more.
