    Official 2024 Off-Season Thread!

    RT @UNCBlue It’s not a shocking trade at all. The bullpen was in need of three things going into this offseason: - guys with options - lefties - high octane velocity Add those up and you get Kerr from a team wanting to cut payroll by including Carpenter. He’s not a sure thing, but he has a...

    Bally Sports Latest

    Bally/FS has always sucked at selling ads, IMO, so they had to have been leaving some money on the table. Maybe it was just BSS/BSSE, or maybe they sold/ran ads to Atlanta-area only, or maybe they just ignored the "Xfinity streaming" feed, but it was 95-100% ads for either other BSS programming...

    Is Morosi a bozo? He seems to be rumoring Shohei interest in the Braves due to our ability to contend long term.

    I bet that was a "pre-write" by Passan and the Morton option is still unknown

    A run in the making

    My guess, in game 1, timing was off due to the break, and then they started to press after getting shut out, which kept them from ever getting it going offensively

    How Would You Fix the Playoffs?

    The bye week layoff is obviously a real issue, because in response to last year, we scheduled two practice games while the playoffs were going on. I'm not sure there's any way for the hitters to stay sharp, doubly so with how long it had been since we played a meaningful game. I think they need...

    GDT: Braves @ Phillies Game 3: No Mentum Like Momentum

    The path to advance was winning Strider's two starts against Ranger Suarez. At this point, we're a little fortunate to still have a chance. If we can't get either of them, we don't have any business being in the playoffs. Figure out a way to have some pitching available in October next year (or...

    GDT: Braves @ Phillies Game 3: No Mentum Like Momentum

    They took him out after 3 2/3 for basically no reason in game 1. Surely someone will reach base in the first 5 innings and Thomson will start playing hero ball.

    GDT: Braves @ Phillies Game 3: No Mentum Like Momentum

    With the expected pitching matchups, I think Game 5 was always likely. Win Strider vs. bullpen tomorrow (like we badly needed to in Game 1), then hope Wheeler's elbow disintegrates in Atlanta.

    GDT: Braves @ Phillies Game 3: No Mentum Like Momentum

    Tonkin got us a couple outs and we pull him to save him for tomorrow. Maybe he is the relief ace and not the mopup guy?
