    2023 Misc Braves Talk

    Taking a step back... We may just set the all time home run record, and Braves win record / run differential. We've hopefully got the MVP (and one the best players of all time at least just based on his peak performance) and 6 of our 8 position players are locked-up long-term. We are about to...

    After TD bomb yesterday, Murphy lost the starting job officially

    GDT 9/1/23: Braves @ Dodgers - Rosters Expand

    Loving Acuna getting the power stroke going. Be something else if he can get hot this month and create the 40-70 club

    GDT 9/1/23: Braves @ Dodgers - Rosters Expand

    I don't know how anyone can disagree at this point the Murphy / TD thing is a problem. TD just played Wednesday night, its a showdown series with home field on the line, TD just had a 505 ops in August and your telling me Murphy can't play two in a row, get a day off and then play 3 in 4? Keep...

    GDT 8/31/23: Braves vs Dodgers - Third times the charm

    The crazy thing about Acuna and I say this in admiration as opposed to criticism - is that he’s already a clear cut top three player in baseball and yet… …his ground ball and launch angle are by far the worst it’s ever been - and not by a small amount What I don’t have any knowledge of is...

    GDT 8/30/23: Braves @ Rockies - 30/60 Attempt 2

    Now I'm going to just sound like I'm complaining but I just realized as missed end of game. Did we really go with iglesias for back to back nights against one of the worst teams in baseball, with a 4 run lead, no days off and a 4 game series coming up that could determine home field advantage...

    GDT 8/30/23: Braves @ Rockies - 30/60 Attempt 2

    Hate to keep beating a dead Murphy but tonight / next four days will be telling. This is objectively a critical series with major implications for home field. Murphy had a day off yesterday There is zero excuse for Murphy not to be in there 3 of 4. Literally zero. TD has been ass the last two...

    Just need Acuna to get the power stroke back and join the gravy train

    GDT 8/27/23: Braves @ Giants - Big Opportunity for Shuster

    Prefer not to talk about it but you obviously nailed it. I've just honestly never seen anything like it in my time as a baseball fan where someone having as good as a season as him was effectively benched 70% into the season

    GDT 8/27/23: Braves @ Giants - Big Opportunity for Shuster

    Good to see Murphy getting the day off, he's been overworked. 3rd day off in four days - given our division lead, I feel like we are arguably over-working him. Surprised we haven't sent him to the Florida camp to shut-down until the playoffs.

    08/22/23 GDT: Mets @ Braves WTF is wrong with this place?

    I've been singing this tune for a while. I think its absolutely disruptive to go from an everyday player to a part-time player. Getting Murphy rest should mean playing him 7 out of every 10 games. We've largely entered into them playing every other day. There is giving someone rest and then...

    Arcia has a chance at 20 bombs. That would mean we'd have Acuna, Albies, Riley, Olson, Ozuna, Rosario, Murphy and Arcia all with 20.

    GDT: 8/19: Braves vs San Fran - Soggy Cheerios

    Need Acuns to take this MVP into his hands. Would love a couple more bombs from him today

    Murphy War Crimes

    I'm relieved to see this issue is off the table on TD hitting above where Murphy would hit I would say that if TD starts Friday after starting Monday and Wednesday and an off-day Thursday, he is our starting catcher. But I'm strongly assuming Murphy is in the line-up Friday, in which case I can...

    Murphy War Crimes

    Know I said I was done but it just hit me that ironically I actually think we will get an objective answer on if Snit believes TD is our new starting catcher. As I've said - I already have my questions given TD is starting the first game of each most recent series and hits 5th vs. Murphy hitting...

    Murphy War Crimes

    That's a good thing because murphy is now permanently hitting 7. I'm past the point of focusing on this issue but on a separate note, even though batting order not really that big of a deal, how stupid can one be to think Murphy should be hitting 7th behind Ozuna and Rosario? Just pretty...

    Fair enough - I don't disagree with any of what you just said.

    Murphy War Crimes

    He had a like a 3-week slump and just homered in back to back games. All I'm saying is its gotten out of hand. We officially have a full-on platoon at catcher and one of the platoon members hits 5th and the other hits 7th. I'm actually amazed people aren't even remotely concerned that Snit...
