    So sick of supporting this organization.

    I hope the Nashville team gets approved and they kick the Braves ass.

    I feel quite confident they can get out of the 1st round. Look at the teams they would be up against. As it stands today would be one of Marlins/Cards/Phillies depending on how that seeding would go.

    We can blame the front office all we want, but a good part of this is because Folty, Touki, Wright, and Newk didn’t step up when we needed them to

    Is there anything more 2020 than the Braves who have 1 legitimate starting pitcher only being able to afford Tommy Milone as their sole trade deadline acquisition?

    You don’t trade bullets to make a run in a season you are plane ride from having Acuna and Fried out for 3 weeks.

    I wish we made a trade to pick up more Milone types (like Walker etc). But those type of guys don’t meaningfully move the needle.
    And who made a ton of moves? A team that's desperate like the Padres or teams like the Marlins who haven't seen the playoffs in forever.

    I get not trading the farm for some guys but not even adding a backend rotation piece? Relying on Hamels, Newk, Folty is certainly a bold very bold strategy.

    To be fair to Touki and Wright, they're young, need to develop and have made like 5 MLB starts lol

    Cards own us, and Phillies have played us well. Maybe we get out of the 1st round but probably ends there.

    AA confirms no moves. Boy, that's embarrassing as hell.

    I can’t argue that point. No excuses for Newcombe and Folty

    He’s lying.

    Although it wouldn’t surprise me. Any time the Braves down play an injury, it ends up costing them a week.

    I am not lying. Look at Bowman's tweet.

    It's hard to blame Anthopolous for not going balls to the wall for this silly season, but damn, it's hard to think like that when you're watching this team's starting rotation day-in and day-out.
