GDT 9/21/13: Braves (Medlen) @ Cubs (Wood) 4:05 PM

[Julio3000]

What is the stadium specific celebration for Wrigley Field (a la the Dodgers jumping in the pool)? Having heat strokes in the bleachers? Weed-eating the ivy?

Spit-roast a goat over a bonfire made from ivy pulled off the walls.

If you really want to torture the fans, though, just winning is probably enough.

 

[Julio3000]

Avilan: Hey skipper, after we clinch, I'm gonna need a few days rest. My arm feels...

Fredi: We'll see.

 

[NYCBrave]

CJ to clean up. Fredi seems to be following the board's suggestions re this, wasn't someone calling for Gattis to be dropped and CJ be put there?

I actually think I was the one who brought this up yesterday

 

[The Tariff King]

You would.

This game is not just about clinching the division. Gotta keep winning for home field.

Heyward plays, Braves win! Coincidence? I think not.

66-30 when he plays.

If you really wanted to torture the Cubs' fans, I'd say bring in Steve Bartman for champagne popping and keg meister duties in the locker room.

I hope we go celebrate in Arizona's pool.

I hope we go celebrate in Arizona's pool.

It's probably safe by now, as long as it's heavily chlorinated.

All he does is hit

 

[bravesnumberone]

When is there going to be some ****ing accountability on umpires for balls/strikes?

 

[Bj1133]

This strike zone Wood is getting is already ridiculous. First pitch to Freeman and that pitch to Laird were both out of the zone by a good measure

Not that I disagree, but man, has Turner been a house of horrors in the playoffs for us .

I just don't understand running this lineup out there....this is a lineup you put out there tomorrow, after we clinch. No Heyward but here's BJ and Uggla in the same lineup? Come on.

Guessing Heyward's legs were sore. In any event, Fredi failed not putting his boy Elliot at leadoff.
