    gdt 10.3.19: time to defrock these molestering cardinals and their enabler holbrook

    Typical Braves playoff game. Acuna doesn't hustle and gets doubled up. Setup guy hurt, enter gas can. Melancon throwing meat balls on 0-2 counts

    Why are MLB bullpens so bad?

    Is it just the juiced balls? Do breaking balls no longer break? Or is it just crap pitching? To put into perspective how bad it is, the Braves pen is 12th in the league. Meaning 18 teams are worse. The Nationals pen era is a miserable 6.08...and they aren’t even the worst pen.

    Our New Relievers

    Like the ball that was hit past Charlie was a good pitch, He just slapped it the other way where Culberson wasn’t My only worry is Martin may still be hurt. They aren’t overly wild. Also has to be some human element to changing leagues and teams

    Mark Melancon to Atlanta per Passan

    Plenty free agent Rp have been serviceable. Some traded at this deadline. Signing fa isn’t the only way to upgrade your pen, but you know that. Given the hand we’ve been dealt, AA has done a good job rebuilding the pen. Jackson has been a good temp closer, but the clock has struck midnight
