I get that Flaherty is likely to turn back into a pumpkin soon, but it is going to be really hard for Snit to bench the NL BA leader. Was nice to see Camargo come thru in the clutch, but it will be and should be a bit before he gets a shot at the starting gig IMO

Well, that was a hell of a first game to see at the new park.

I think he will be playing 2-3 games a week until pumpkin time arrives

Can certainly rotate him around a la Marwin Gonzalez

That's the last time I'll believe anything Chip Carey says. LOL!

Emma and bouncing elephants... and time for Acuna.
Great win for Braves Country.

In a season where the Braves would need everything to go right for them to be in contention at the end this is certainly a game and start to the year that would count towards that. Good times.

What has really happened is the starting pitching is good again and young players are developing as expected. The pickups like Tucker/Flaherty got us so wins but ultimately it will be that pitching that drives us to a mid to high 80 win totals.

So glad I fell asleep in the ninth.

**Tapate50** · 04-22-2018, 07:34 AM

It was a good game thread to read back through. Much better than years passed. You can tell there’s optimism about this team again.

Great win!

Let’s roll these clowns again tomorrow!

They've beaten up on the Marlins, Reds, Rays, and Pirates. They're 2-6 against us and the Mets. They've benefitted from a cupcake schedule. It won't last.

Does reliever in baseball have a worse job than Blevins for the Mets. He is their only lefty in the pen which means he will pitch about 40 innings this year and will get to face two of the premier LH hitters in the game (Freeman / Harper) about 35 times.

Think radio said FF is now 10/19 vs Blevins. Might wanna try someone else

Also great to see the park so full - and the lights out chop is pretty damn cool.
Now, let's go get 'em today boys!
