GDT 8/22/24: Braves vs Nationals - Soler Power's Back On

[bravesfanMatt]

So why did the Braves swarm Harris. Shouldn’t they swarm Abram’s.

I walked into the middle of this movie so who's meth head?

Murphy. Him and Hader look like they share a spoon.

Mets down 5 early. Going to be a great start to the weekend

 

[Hudson2]

Sh*t win...absolutely nothing to be proud of fo these bats...Sh*t play from sorry ass Murphy, Olson, Harris, Soler, and Arcia.

Who gives a $hit, we won. As much bad luck as we’ve had we deserve it.

We should pick up a game on the Phillies and Mets tonight. If the Phillies collapsed with us losing as many key players as we have this year it would be an epic choke job.

This thread was a lot more fun to read after the game is over than during. You guys are hilarious.

 

[Hulavol]

It’s even funnier as it’s happening in real time…it’s even better than the actual game

 

[CyYoung31]

That was not a good throw, but what the hell was Yepez doing at 1b?

I just watched the replay. I can’t stop laughing at the first baseman.

Imagine the melt down on here if Olson did something like that

 

[Slippyjms]

22-16

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

An ugly win beats a loss any day

 

[cajunrevenge]

I think he's gonna be our DH next year, and ozuna's money goes to adames

Might as well do a fire sale and rebuild if we are doing stupid **** like that. I would rather DFA Soler and pay him to not play than lose our MVP for a slightly above average hitter. Maybe they let Ozuna walk after 2025 and let Soler DH then.

I think you guys give Olson too much hell around here personally

I have to imagine no Riggy or JJ tonight. Need to score a bunch tonight cause when it gets to the 8th twit will have no idea what to do.

Charlie on mound. Not feeling it tonight.

No, but I'm sure plenty will be here bitching that he's not using his top guys.

 

[Hudson2]

I say we blow them out tonight. The team always seems to have more energy on alumni weekend. I say we score 8 tonight.

 

[bravesfanMatt]

I was fine with using Riggy. JJ on the other hand. He has pitches 4 times in 6 days. Same time frame. Prince Albert/ Lee and bummer just once each. Those three are good relievers and in some areas better than JJ. Lee is actually in a lot a ways better. Even Jackson hasn’t pitched much although he scares the crap out of me.

We've pretty much put ourselves in a position where we can't punt games. Even with the injuries, there is still enough offensive juice to where this team shouldn't have to rely on winning 3-2 every single game.
