gdt 10.9.19: today the house of cards comes tumbling down

Any manager with an ounce of good sportsmanship either doesn't mention the other team or says something respectful like how they played hard but we played harder.

Only a complete asshat denigrates the team he just beat.

I seriously hope the Cards catch a ton of pitches in the ribs from our pitcher's next year. Molina and Flaherty in particular need several reminders about how to play the game.

Chipper seems to be on a mission to piss fans off. He keeps responding to people on twitter with the argument that they should criticize players since these people never played in the majors. That's a terrible argument. I don't need to have cooked in a 5 star restaurant or even be able to cook at all to know when I'm served a burned steak.
 
I didn't pay close enough attention this year.

How come the ace, Mike Soroka, pitched game 3 and only one time this series? Shouldn't he have pitched game 1 and 4?
 
I really thought Folty’s game yesterday was inches away from being great. He was just missing spots. Foul too being missed. Infield single. Great slider for a hit. Error. Just missing the zone. I thought he looked good yesterday and it was just one of those games. Happens.

DK and Folty were much better at home than on the road. It shouldn't have been an issue regardless. Our SP, sans game 5, was pretty terrific. Our 3-6 hitters were unfathomably terrible all series. That is the sole reason why we lost this series. We asked for a steak from Freddie, JD, Neck, and Joyce and we didn't even get rump roast. They gave us a **** sandwich.

Well stated.

As much as we complain about Snit, the Braves lost because JD, Freeman and Markakis forgot they were playing baseball games the last week. No decisions made by anyone in the organization could have altered the outcome of this series as significantly as those guys playing to expectations.

The nerds can set the jocks up to succeed, but at the end of the day, the guys being paid millions have to produce.
