    GDT 5/23/25: Braves vs Padres - The Return of Acuna

    Eli White isn't a good enough player to make those kinds of blunders.

    GDT 5/23/25: Braves vs Padres - The Return of Acuna

    We gotta fire the entire front office and the entire staff. The incompetence is staggering.

    GDT 5/23/25: Braves vs Padres - The Return of Acuna

    AA's failure to fix the pen is perhaps the biggest failure of any GM in the past decade. This pen is absolute garbage and AA has done nothing to fix it.

    GDT 5/23/25: Braves vs Padres - The Return of Acuna

    Might have been thinking Acuna would be taking his first pitch back. Just tried a get me over fastball to steal a strike and Acuna crushd it.

    GDT 5/23/25: Braves vs Padres - The Return of Acuna

    It's amazing how deep Acuna can let the ball get on him and him still turn on it.

    I recently got a Blackstone. I've had some success with making hibachi on it but haven't tried much else. Any of you got any recommendations of Blackstone dishes that worked out well for you?

    Some Personal Thoughts On Brian Snitker

    We miss Ron Washington and Eric Young. Leading a team isn't just about the manager, it's the whole staff. With Wash and Young the coaching staff was exceptional. I don't put all the blame on Snit. AA is Snit's boss. He could require Snit to make in game choices based on advanced stats. Maybe...

    GDT 5/8/77 Beat the Reds to Schwell en Bach.

    I like our starters better once Strider gets back. But our pen is so lousy it drags our staff way down. I wouldn't feel comfortable with this pen on a AAA team.

    The Advice Thread

    Lady Striker and I are looking for a new gas range for the kitchen. Looking at Thermador, Viking, Blue Star, and others of that kind. Anyone got any advice on the subject?

    Falcons DC apparently left his iPad unlocked and his son got Shedur Sanders phone number off it and prank called him on draft day. It's embarrassing for the Falcons but the bigger issue is data security. If this can happen then it's not unreasonable to think someone could get access to a team...

    I don't dislike moving up to grab Pearce. It's an aggressive move that took advantage of an unforeseen opportunity. I just think we seriously overpaid. The value of the picks exchanged very much favors the Rams. The price reeks of desperation. I gotta think the Rams were well aware of the...

    The Falcons trading back into the first round exposes the desperation of the front office. TF knows he's going to get shown the door if the Falcons dont at least make the playoffs. He might need to win a playoff game to stay. So TF is all in to win now. He doesn't care about next year's draft...

    GDT 4/22/25: Braves vs Cardinals - Blewett at the Beginning

    AA's utter failure to build a pen is inexcusable. Dude needs to be put on notice. Fix the roster or find a new home.

    Can we let the pitcher hit and use the DH for Kelenic?
