I don't consider winning wildcards a worthy accomplishment. I know teams have won championships off of them. but does anybody really consider the 2003 Marlins to be the better team than the Braves that year?

Yet it's still considered making the playoffs which is what we are talking about numb nuts.

Just like the Braves aren't the 100 win team folks were pimping a week or so ago, they aren't now suddenly a bad team.

The Braves are good. The Braves are a near certain playoff team. The Braves need to make a few tweaks to the roster.

As usual, folks are unable to keep a level head when thinking about the team, so all of their suggestions can be safely ignored.

They aren't a bad team, but they are due to lose a few. Since June 1 has been incredible, but given our rotation compared to Washington. We are on a slippery slope.

The baseball whisperer comes out to tell us the Braves are due to lose a few while they are in the midst of losing a few.

Thanks for the insight! About as useful as your take on Donaldson...who just hit a bomb.
 
Riley missed that slider by 3'.

I don't know how to see plate discipline numbers in AAA, but Riley will be down there working on them soon.
 
yeah, this isn't really a smart argument today. If we're going to talk about the division, it might get close, but the Nationals are finally going to see teams that are the not-Royals and not-Orioles as well.
 
I know what the problem today is... the young guys went out drinking brews last night; the under 29 year olds are 0-14.
 
There was a chance they wouldn't given Ender his job back, but well...he's getting his job back for sure. Gonna play CF and hit 8th tomorrow. Riley's going down.

The thing is, the only thing that I really think it does is provide a breather for him. He walked 11.1% of the time this year in Gwinnett. I really agree that you might be able to question if he can see spin.

the best thing that could happen is for Ender and Gausman to return and be 2-3 WAR players. That would solve most of the teams issues.

There were signs of Ender being hurt for quite a while.

I'm thinking we can watch his exit velocity and sprint speed numbers for clues as to whether he is "back" or not.
