GDT 10/2/24: Braves @ Padres - WC Game 2 - Gotta Win to Survive

[bravesfanMatt]

Glad same got those four extra innings in cincy to get that win. Huge moment for 2024.

 

[Strike3urout]

Braves had playoff success with Swanson and FF. The new leadership on this team is crap.

Braves didn‘t do jack **** in the playoffs for the first 10 years of FF‘s career. Similarly for Swanson.

 

[AJonesATL]

I sort of hope they lose 30-2.

Kind of nuts - the Braves lost in the NLDS 8 times in a row and we lost a one game WC playoff. That was 9 straight 1st round exits. We then made it out in COVID a season I barely count, and then of course the WS. Since then, 2 NLDS exits in a row and assuming this holds, a WC loss.

So that is 1-10 in the NLDS; and two wild card round losses in our last 13 playoff appearances. I just can't count covid, it was a 60 game BS season, we played the freaking Marlins in the 1st round. So overall we are effectively 1-12 in our last 13 postseason 1st rounds. I am not even making any conclusions on that given entirely different eras. More just shocking to have that bad of a run. Even if random, the odds of that are just so low

Lee is playing with fire giving up all of this contact

Fried gave up 7 balls in play over 99 in 2 ip. 3 swing and misses in 45 pitches.

 

[bravesfanMatt]

Guys. Can’t hit a five run homer by walking.

 

[mfree80]

I may have to stop listening to the announcers make love to the Padres

 

[Strike3urout]

Ozzie is so predibtable in his stupidity. Same goes for most of these hitters. They are easily exploitable in big games.

 

[Hudson2]

Musgrove looks hurt

 

[msstate7]

What have they done without them? I'll help you out, 2-8

 

[Hudson2]

He’s coming out. That may help us out.

Seriously. The revisionist history is annoying.

 

[msstate7]

Musgrove looks hurt

After all our injuries, don't feel sorry for them at all.

 

[msstate7]

He’s coming out. That may help us out.

No it won't, but they won't beat the dodgers. I don't like the dodgers, but I detest the padres

 

[Enscheff]

I was shocked to turn the game on an hour late to see the offense is limp again.

And Fried came up small it seems.

 

[CyYoung31]

Why are you people still watching this **** show?

 

[bravesfanMatt]

Told yall Olson tweaked his swing. Maybe espn can be the Braves new hitting coach since they point out things that aren’t working that apparently the Braves are too stupid to see.

 

[Enscheff]

I’ve been a Braves fan for 31 years now, and have watched 100-150 games in every one of those years. This is by far the least enjoyable version of the Braves I’ve ever seen.

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

I hope that’s not an elbow for Musgrove

 

[CyYoung31]

I was shocked to turn the game on an hour late to see the offense is limp again.

And Fried came up small it seems.

He got out of an unlucky jam in the first after he got hit by a line drive. Was probably hurt in the 2nd when he gave up 6 straight two out hits.

2022-2024 the braves are 2-8. You can take any 3 consecutive playoff appearances in brave history, and that's the worst winning %... the years don't have to be consecutive (I. E. 2005, 2010, and 2012 is 2-7.
