GDT 10/12/22: Braves vs Philthies - NLDS Game 2

[msstate7]

Credit to Snit for sticking with Kenley. He’s been nails for a month now.

Yes he has. Let this be a lesson to all you message board warriors - if you (me) rip someone(s) (jansen and Olson) long enough, they will turn it around big time

Whos our game 3 starter?

Gotta be Strider.

 

[CrazyTrain]

They gotta throw Charlie in G3, don’t they?

 

[Hulavol]

SOLID.
Kyle Wright is a damn legit number one. Never thought I’d type that….SOLID
ACUNA …SOLID
AIDS… SOLID
Dansby and Riley on the leather … SOLID
Night Shift — SOLID !!!!!!!!

Kinda snickering at you guys who declared the game over when we didn't score in the 1st....

And the ones who said Wheeler was unbeatable...

A little hyperbole, I know.

I've heard probably Charlie, with Strider being a chance as well. Will be interesting to see what they decide.

Damn right

I didn't have a good feeling about this one. Wasn't it a no-hitter after 3? So much credit to Wright, and our luck hitting when it mattered.

I think it'll be Charlie, but i'd go with Strider. Not announced yet, should obviously know sometime soon.

Props to Kyle Wright, I did not see him delivering that. Hopefully the bats wake up early in Philly. Win the next game and the Phil’s are in trouble having to pitch their #4 starter.

I expect they'll go back to Suarez if they're down 2-1. He was out of Game 1 early enough. Same with Braves and Fried.

 

[CrazyTrain]

Gotta be Strider.

Is he ready?

That would be a big moment for him and potentially rusty coming off the injury. He’s a special breed though.

I do wonder how much he was injured vs just a break. Guess we will find out.

I don’t want Charlie anywhere near this rotation right now.

Agreed. Depends on how they look at it. Honestly strider has been the better pitcher so I’d go with him to give us a chance to go up 2-1. But the Braves may want Morton for the “veteran lairdership”

 

[msstate7]

I'm fine with Charlie or strider. Charlie is gonna be our will smith this year. Avg regular season to great in postseason

Kyle Wright has been a revelation this season. He is night and day from the tentative kid that nipped around the zone.

He’s really pitching with confidence.

Good W. Nice to get some luck on our side. 3 runs on 3 nicely placed hits...

Only the staff knows. They have to weigh when they are willing to use him and inexperience…Do you do it in game 3 and use the aging vet for in game 4 If you lose…or vice versa.

 

[bravesnumberone]

If my math is correct, going back to 2001 postseason, we are 15-2 in Game 2s.

Braves have Strider or Charlie for Game 4. They arent using Fried until a possible Game 5.
