GDT 4/29/25: Braves @ Rockies - AJSS Returns

Also, you wanna know why Snit deserves manager of the year ?

The man saw the season derailing…. Faced with huge obstacles due to a tight offseason budget and my man Profar getting caught up in what surely had to be a very sophisticated sting operation spearheaded by the Padres….

The man had a plan.

He grew a beard - and wham!- we win 8 out our next ten and three straight series.

I'll say this too. In retrospect it appears that AA had an idea this was gonna happen at the end of the offseason and the Verdugo pickup has really mitigated the damage.
 
Just got back from the game. It was a nice relaxing night at the ballpark. No drama, no stress. Like a spring training game. The vibe was so weird - almost nobody there except Braves fans. It was easily the lightest crowd Ive ever witnessed there. Combo of the cool weather, school still in session, and the Rockies being really bad.
 
For real tho, Eli White has been a Godsend. And it's not completely luck either. His statcast page shows some serious improvements in his game. He will cool off, but I think we might have found us one of those needles in haystack that every other team seems to find but us.
 
Somebody has to have a damn intervention with Ozzie or something.

I went back and looked up some old prospect scouting reports on Albies. He reminds me of Furcal who had the great rookie year then kept trying to hit homers every at bat when we just needed him to get on base.
