GDT 10/26/21: Braves @ Astros - World Series Game 1

[striker42]

First Braves game I watched live all year. I go look up the WS roster to see who possibly might start game 4. Wtf is Kyle Wright on this roster......

Mop up duty to save the pen in case of blow out is all I can figure.

About all you can do now is line Smyly up for 5 and hope Fried and Anderson for 6 and 7,

Smyly is probably going G4.

Pen came up huge yet again.

Minter need to start one of games 4-5? I think 4 is better because he may be available for game 7 if necessary.

He's probably available for a G7 if he went in G5 because of the day off. Maybe even G6.

 

[VirginiaBrave]

Either/or but it has to be a normal start especially if we are up 2-1 which we should be.

Fun fact - tomorrow will be at least the 8th game in a row the braves were the underdog according to Vegas.

I think those odds are going to start changing.

Summary of this game:

 

[jsebe10]

None of the Houston pitchers scare me.

I dunno man…That Maton is kind creepy…

 

[jpx7]

Ynoa is done but if it was a minor thing he could come back.

...

He’s ineligible.

 

[jpx7]

You’re literally the only person I like on these boards.

Correct. But I'm ineligible.

Our 9-game WS losing streak ended last night

I hope not. Keep those boys having that Chip on their shoulder. Minus the pant less cocaine parties and all

As much as I didnt agree with Snitker's bullpen usage all season, have to give him credit for how he's handled it this post season. Especially last night. He had to go totally off script once Morton went down. He went bold with giving his top guys multiple innings and the results speak for themselves.

Hopefully we can get at least 6 from Fried tonight. Need some length from the starters.
