Cant believe Kimbrel didn't pitch jesus Christ.

Gotta take the diapers off Kimbrel in a must win game. Closers often pitch 2 innings in crucial games. Carpenter isn't half the pitcher.
Can't believe our veteran catcher is not catching slack here. He called for a pitch into Puigs strength and it burned. He called a fckn slider for a guy who throws 97 MPH...on top of the that he went 0-14 and choked a knob when runners were on. His time is clearly up in Atl.
if you're gonna fire fredi, then you gotta clean house... fire wren and mcdowell as well.. TP and snitker
Did anyone read Kimbrel's lips?
(To Eddie) "No. I am mad because I told him to put me in if we had the lead in the 8th."
He was pissed. Shaking his head and just ****ing fuming.

And once again, Chipper was correct.
I feel like I'm constantly in a state of déjà vu with these team. Only the names and the years change, the incompetence remains the same.

Our horses simply didn't show up for the race. Theirs were leading the pack all series. We need some thoroughbreds. I don't think we have em right now.
I'm more po'd about the pitch selection...how in the heck do you throw that pitch to Uribe.
Freddie pitched his butt off...if the Braves don't resign Hudson they should consider bringing Freddie back for cheap.
Pretty fitting that they couldn't even put the ball in play in the last inning.
Still a great season by the team...they were two games better after losing Chipper.
Those who believe Kimbrel should have been used to get six outs are being ridiculous. Carpenter's been the guy there, and he just wasn't this time. Whoever called that pitched was stupid, and if he shook off a fastball to throw it he was stupid
You guys can blast me all you want, I really couldn't care less.
But you want to place blame, put it on the players. They are the ones that didn't get the job done. Gonzalez can't make that pitch or get that big hit. Put blame on guys like Upton and McCann who gave the Braves nothing in this series. Got almost nothing from Freeman, Simmons, and E. Johnson. Uggla doesn't make the roster because he stunk all season.
Place blame on the players, for once. They are the ones who have to do the job. They did not.

Our bullpen was great all year but had pretty much run out of juice by September.

Wow I have no inclination to watch any more baseball f--k the dodgers fu-k the cards maybe the pirates are root able wow I really thought this year would be different can we just get out of the freakin 1 st round ever and I don't give a damn kimbrel should have came in after the double what's the point of having the best closer if your seasons on the line and you don't use him for all I care they could have used the rest of the pen to get through the 9th this is where the injury to walden killed us
