GDT 10/21/21: Braves @ Dodgers - NLCS Game 5

[zbhargrove]

Is this the setup to a George Carlin punchline?

Nope! We will be there!

 

[Dalyn]

That’s gonna impact his wanking career.

I have a feeling he pays a lookalike to do that for him.

 

[Garmel]

Cy's mom gets a day off today.

Not if thewupk has anything to say about it.

 

[CyYoung31]

Exact same thing he was doing at the beginning of the year.

Sounds like a choke.

For some reason I expect four or five dominant innings from Anderson and an easy win tomorrow.

 

[Tapate50]

Think Soler will be back at the leadoff spot?

 

[Jaw]

Soler leading off, Pederson available as Snit's pinch hitter in a key situation. He seemed to really enjoy that option.

 

[CyYoung31]

Think Soler will be back at the leadoff spot?

I’d sub him for Pederson immediately.

 

[Garmel]

Sounds like a choke.

A little nerves might have been making him do it. Like I said he was doing it during his bad spell in the early part of the year as well. TDA and Kranitz need to be more aware of this when he's doing it.

 

[Dalyn]

Sounds like a choke.

I didn't know he had that close of a relationship with Bauer. That's disappointing.

 

[bravesfanMatt]

wait, why are we sitting Joc for Soler versus righty Max?!?!?

 

[jsebe10]

I’d sub him for Pederson immediately.

I would leave Pederson in…he’s had some good looks on Scherzer

 

[Jaw]

I wasn't saying what I thought should happen, I was saying what I thought would happen.

 

[DirkPiggler]

I didn't hear him say this myself, but the MLB network radio guys in the pregame yesterday said that Snitker said he would keep Soler on the bench through the end of this series.

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

So I just happen to be in Atlanta and my son and I are just happening to go to game 6 tomorrow

Be LOUD tomorrow

I think it makes sense. He's bound to be rusty. And you have right handed starters in game 6 and 7. Duvall is entrenched in CF, and then you've got lefties in Rosario and Pederson in LF and RF. Save Soler for later in the game when they have a lefty in to face Pederson, or a big spot when you can pinch hit for the pitcher.

2021 Postseason 6-2

2021 Overall 46-23

 

[Enscheff]

It's hard to imagine he's ready to produce after not seeing live pitching for a week. This is probably the right call.

 

[VirginiaBrave]

The Cowboys haven’t been relevant since the 90’s. Easy to cope when you have no hope.

Until 2021. The Boys are back. If not for Zurlien's off night in Tampa, they would be 6-0.

 

[VirginiaBrave]

I didn't know he had that close of a relationship with Bauer. That's disappointing.

Why? Max has no control over what Bauer does or doesn't do. I live in a rural area 46 kids in my graduating class. We were all close and hung out together. One is currently in jail for murdering his mother for insurance money. His situation is his own and has nothing to do with me even if we were friends most of our lives.
