GDT 11/2/21: Braves @ Astros - World Series Game 6

[NYCBrave]

Still in disbelief and it hasn't quite sunk in yet. Never expected this in a million years. But this championship certainly feels like a make up for all of the heartbreaks we've had in the past few decades. I'm going to enjoy this for a very long time. What a ride!

Will Smith playoff run

2-0 with 6 saves

11 innings (finished every win)

0.00 ERA, 2.53 FIP, 0.72 WHIP

Just incredible.

I had to do some driving between worksites, so I listened to the radio feed from the mlb app. Got to the bottom of the 9th, gonna save that for drive home.

Congrats, y'all and Go Braves!

Don't know that I would have bet on Will Smith being a lockdown postseason badass, but such things happen in the playoffs.

Snitker was right.

Listening to the DOB/EOF 755 Is Real podcast with Moylan right now. They're right: The 30 for 30 on this team would be spectacular.

 

[Garmel]

We got one!

What a shame. DOB with Moylan is such a painful listen. EOF is really really good though so I’ll definitely give this one a listen

Gentlemen, if ever this offseason you get down, just remember....the 2021 FLAG FLIES FOREVER!

 

[Freshmaker]

Next year is going to be a such a big blow out of projections.

The year after a world series is always a monster ticket year.

And the battery is still developing!!!

::heads off to buy BATRK stock::

Funny they have the Dodgers and the Astros up there at #1 and #2, when both of their rosters face a vast overhaul this offseason.

Braves home opener will be Thursday Apil 7th assuming no work stoppage. Think that will be when they do the ring ceremony?

They have to win another one. For Ronnie.

I'd like to thank our Fearless Leader Jeffrey for keeping this community going after scout imploded. You deserve a pay raise my guy.

I didn't back down under pressure when people were demanding me to change the forum name.

I learned patience from Bobby. You stick with what got you to the dance.

 

[OcalaBrave]

They have to win another one. For Ronnie.

If there was one concern I had about Acuna it was humility as it seemed everything came easy to him on the ball field.

Nothing will humble you like watching your team replace you with cast offs and go win a World Championship.

That quote is a testament to his character.


Now he needs to follow Joc's lead and go hang out with the pitching staff... cause they are the one's that got Joc his second ring and are the guys that are going to get Acuna his ring.

I might need to fly in this weekend

Listening to AA giving an interview on Atlanta sports radio. He confirmed he did test positive for Covid. Also, we're in really, really good hands. He was explaining how they had all the underlying analytics showing Freddie's cold start was just bad luck and how there was no chance of selling as their numbers showed the team was far better than its record.

Any link to the interview? I love hearing AA talk about these little things... we never heard from anyone in our FO before.
