GDT 4-24: Strider is the STOPPER.

[AJonesATL]

On a side note the Acuna launch angle is lingering on me. Just frustrating knowing he should be doing all of this with a 40 bomb base and for whatever reason, just still hasn't gotten the proper swing back from the injury. Hitting the ball harder than ever, but just can't find the launch.

KKKKKKKKKKKKK

If Strider makes 30+ starts this year he's winning the cy young. Said it in spring training and nothing has changed my mind.

What is the closest Braves no hitter recently? I remember Shelby Miller was one out away in Miami, but have there been any that close since?

Newk was either 1 or 2 outs away vs the Dodgers in 2019 or 2018.

Newcomb against the Dodgers in 2018 was one strike away. ****ing Chris Taylor.

Sean Newcomb came close vs the dodgers I think it was

Strider is a freakin beast. I’m glad he’s on our side.

Dude looks and plays like a douche

 

[UNCBlue012]

I did not think we’d see someone come even close to Max Fried in Atlanta anytime soon but Strider may truly be better.

 

[thewupk]

doubles with his best game in awhile. hope it gets him going

 

[CyYoung31]

Newcomb also threw, like 125 pitches in that game and had about 5 walks.

 

[thewupk]

holy cow, I totally forgot about that outing against the Dodgers lol boy is it nice watching Strider and not Newcomb

Ump is bored and wants to go home.

 

[CrazyTrain]

Also holy **** how good has Murph been?

The Braves seem to get everything right.

Mike Hampton got close once

2003, took it to 1 out in the 8th against the Phillies (Smoltz let both inherited runners score and then let them walk it off in the 9th), then Maddux went 5 2/3 no-hit the next day against the Orioles

Strider has a 1.77 FIP on the season. So much for those concerns some had during his first start.

His first start he pitched 6 innings, gave up 0 runs with 9 K's
