That would definitely be the way to be less stars and scrubsy. Others will say otherwise (especially on the other place), but we proved to be a better team when we had a more balanced lineup instead of just half of it working (or later on just a few guys doing something). Given Flowers age, I do...

Nick being in a lot mainly comes from upstairs. I think he really just needs to be off the team.

Just inexcusable all around. If you don't score here, fine, but you really need to clear Folty if you are thinking about him going longer than 5. Just incredible. Like...why are we trusting Dansby in RISP to make contact this year?

Some of this fanbase as a whole is starting to look extremely bad on Acuna. The one difference I have is he's likely to still play like he always has. He said he respected Snitker's decision on the regular season benching but that I will continue to play the game like how I've played it. But...

I forgot to add. One part of part 3 is he actually gets good results. But the key might be him leaving. Unless Snitker does well with off script stuff and lets a guy like Fried go.

There's 3 options with Folty tomorrow: 1. He gets crushed. There's even history here, but some of it is before last year and before sinker Folty showed up. 2. He dominates and shocks us all. 7 IP with 10 Ks. 3. Folty doesn't make it deep because he gets overheated.

I'm sorry but looking for Keuchel to be macho man and soak up innings, when you can go to a website and see what his splits are, that's incorrect even if it works. And he's not the ace either.

It was a move that you see advanced analytics teams do, and we became one of those teams once AA came in. The old guard is out but the same ole Braves are still here.

Snitker has been willing to hook Joyce if the situation requires it (especially later though), but with Markakis there's no way in heck he gets hooked, and with McCann I'm a bit doubtful too. So, considering that they will not be hooking Markakis, Miller still gets to face two lefties and a guy...

Luv 2 see all 3 of the starters bomb in the final series when they're going to pitch in the playoffs next up.

Young team. Choosing to mentally check out instead of fighting hard through game 162.

I think they wouldn't have pushed Soroka all the way to Sunday if it was truly up in the air. And I think they don't want to start Folty on the road, so it's likely an unkept secret at this point that its Keuchel/Folty/Soroka, in that order.

People were thinking that he had batting champion like ability but that he didn’t have much power. I think it’s fair to question it because of the 2019 superball (at least 4 of his 24 home runs were juiced ball influenced and that doesn’t even get into extra base hits that weren’t hit that hard...

had a dumb moment, I apologize for that. Thought he was pitching the 30th. However I still don't think you'd push to Sunday if you weren't pulling a move like that. Think that pushback all but confirms it.

edit: ignore me, I'm dumb and thought the 30th was Sunday.

Well, Soroka getting pushed to game 3 is official (he's not starting on short rest October 4th), so that part can be discussed (and it has brought mixed feelings). And I didn't say that Bowman has been always correct, its just that there's been times where he's looked very good. So, we can't...

Its not a zero percent chance or else Bowman wouldn't have posted a quote that looks like this: That does everything but straight up say that Swanson must produce this week or he will get benched for the NLDS even if everything suggests he should get out of this (and it does give me Elliot...

There's a chance that Dansby doesn't start if he doesn't have a good week this week. He's better than Hech, but he might simply not be himself (even if his luck has been porous). Shouldn't have rushed him back from injury.

yeah...that's another thing, and upstairs is not going to fight this either. Markakis will bat 5th and he will be treated like Freddie vs LHP, never being removed. Joyce will get taken down, but with Snitker, it's too far for him to understand that while Nick is great in the clubhouse, he can...

Their SP was substituting for Hamels, he likely wasn't fully stretched out. But this is unbelievable from Chicago. Two seasons in a row they've underachieved.
