    So...what are y'all's best overall theories as to what's happened (and why) in both the micro and the macro, to our braves since our world series run?

    I think I have the solution. We shouldn't play on Sundays (3-10), or Wednesdays. (3-9) or day games (11-17) We shouldnt play against the NL West (8-20) or on national television (9-20) We shouldnt play in 1-run games (11-20), or 2-run games (3-8) If we can avoid all of that moving forward...

    GDT 6/28: Harris Not In The Lineup

    The illusion is real: 3-10 on Sundays. Also, 3-9 on Wednesdays. Their record in day games is better than I had assumed: 11-17. Still not good.

    GDT 6/24/25: Braves @ Mets - Are we about to hit our STRIDer?

    It's helped that most of the teams at the top of the standings have come back to earth. The Padres were not in a playoff spot as of yesterday, and that 6th spot is now at about an 88 win pace instead of 92 like it was 2 weeks ago.

    Minor League Thread Part Deux

    It sounds like they would both be right at home in the Braves lineup.

    Braves not serious on my Bday GDT

    We're still on this? The play wasn't made, he made another great play that saved the game, and we won. Move on.

    State of the braves

    Here's some wacky situational records for this under-performing team. Pythag record - 34-31 1-run games - 9-19 2-run games - 4-7 NL West - 6-19 Road - 11-23 All 4 together - 1-9 16 losses where the Braves had the lead.

    6/5 GDT - dbacks game 3. Now or never for the 2025 Braves

    I'm usually one of the more optimistic fans here but I have to say this team is done. Ride out the string, sell what you can. Get ready for '26.

    I hate how MLB can manipulate the game by changing the balls. Curious that in most of these years there is a definite V curve going on. My tinfoil hat goes on when I see stuff like this.

    06/01/2025 GDT: Red Sox at Braves - Nick the Stick is Back

    That HR stat is a weird one. To put it in perspective: With 2 or 3 men on base: 2024 30 HR in 813 PA, or 1 every 27.1 PA vs 213 HR in 6075 PA total, or 1 every 28.5 PA 2025 4 HR in 299 PA, or 1 every 74.8 PA vs 62 HR in 2201 PA total, or 1 every 35.5 PA So HR are down overall, and the...

    Playoff odds according to Fangraphs

    It doesn't help that seemingly all the talent is in the NL right now. These teams are stacked and I'm not sure 90 wins gets in in the NL this year. Last year was the highest win requirement for a 6-team playoff ever at 89 wins. My guess is it's gonna be like 92 or 93 this year. It also doesn't...

    Orlando Arcia Era Is Over

    Yes and he will be missed in the clubhouse. Even when he was not playing he would always be on that top wall cheering everyone on.

    Oh, and the previous 162 before that: 103-59 And the 162 before that: 109-53

    Acuna Update

    Interesting that it's been almost exactly a full season without him. Since he went down the Braves are 83-77.

    The only baseball fan rite more loved than hating on their team's manager is hating on announcers. Most people seem to enjoy Gaudin. I love how he sneaks in adult jokes from time to time.
