05/04/25 GDT Dodgers @ Braves May the 4th Be With Us

[USMA76]

Okay you guys that gave up while the Braves had a three run lead.

Hung on by the skin of their teeth.

Bet this wasn’t the one you expected to win.

Elder has had a couple of good starts now.

Guilty as charged. You notice my hand wasn't up when I asked earlier who thought we'd hold on and win.

Singer 3.24 era
Abbott 2.84 era
Greene 2.53 era
Lodolo 3.27 era

Next 4 starters. Damn, I wanna see some more bad pitching

Maybe we could've drafted Hunter Greene. He was drafted 2nd overall in the 2017 draft. The Braves ended up with the 5th overall pick (Kyle Wright) because they decided to win 12 of their last 14 games to end the year 68-93 which teams 2-4 all ended up 68-94.

don't kid yourself.. he would have been turned into a lefty that just knows how to pitch within the first year..

Also - great to see Ozuna hit the ball tonight

And the Phillies lost
And not that it matters, but so did the 7 train imposters.

I am setting the O/U at 14 days until Uncle Charlie is a Brave again

 

[CyYoung31]

What in the absolute fuck.

 

[Carp]

Guessing that is Olson?

He has got to get his launch angle fixed. Nothing will change if he keeps hitting half of his batted balls straight to the ground.

4th straight Elder start where we win! 4-2 now for the season. 11-16 when anyone else starts. Maybe Elder is the real ace!

This.. if Twit could understand Elder's TTO decline, he would be an even more effective starter and probably could setup the pen a bit better in his starts.

 

[Nerfherders]

Warts and all, Elder is getting the job done. He had the Dodgers guessing most of the night.

Appears the new sinker grip was the change needed

AA back to savant status ?

 

[Deester11]

AA back to savant status ?

No

 

[CyYoung31]

AA back to savant status ?

Not until he acquires another quality starter.

 

[zbhargrove]

Hasn’t Elders velocity been up a bit as well? Maybe the dude is becoming a solid mid-late rotation guy. Would be a nice development

 

[bravesfanMatt]

is there a world where Elder wins 17-20 games and twit starts him as game 1 starter because of the record... SS squared and Sale are healthy of course.
