[Enscheff]

The Braves have a tendency to let off the gas when they reach an in-season milestone. Let's hope they can get to .500 tonight and then not lose 3 of the next 4 while scoring 2 runs in those 4 games after celebrating the accomplishment.

 

[Enscheff]

Also, the irony of Verdugo doing exactly what everyone hoped Profar would do for the lineup would be amusing if Profar wasn't being paid $42M over 3 years.

 

[CyYoung31]

I know Verdugo and White are going to be falling back to Earth here shortly, but it would not surprise me at all if a Verdugo/White platoon out performed Profar. Especially when you factor in defense.

Need Holmes to do something tonight

Need Holmes to do something tonight

Yes, pitch. That’s his job.

 

[Hulavol]

Need Holmes to do something tonight

And that one thing : DO NOT WALK these bastards.

 

[A-10]

Are the bats going to be able to do anything against Greene tonight? Feels like a 15+ strikeout kinda game for the O tonight.

 

[CyYoung31]

Kinda sucks to see Murphy getting the night off after breaking through his slump last night.

Kelenic 2-2, 2b, hr

Hopefully he's about to get going

 

[CyYoung31]

Kelenic 2-2, 2b, hr

Hopefully he's about to get going

I hope we don’t see Kelenic for the rest of the season.

 

[msstate7]

I hope we don’t see Kelenic for the rest of the season.

Probably would be a bad sign. I would love for him to make him vs verdugo a discussion

 

[msstate7]

Great start

 

[USMA76]

Also, the irony of Verdugo doing exactly what everyone hoped Profar would do for the lineup would be amusing if Profar wasn't being paid $42M over 3 years.

I probably don't want to know the answer but...do we have to pay his entire salary since he was suspended as a result of his own stupidity/misconduct?

 

[msstate7]

Braves won't see .500 this season, will they?

 

[WaitingFor2017]

Not an ideal start after Hunter Greene has owned Atlanta.

 

[bravesfanMatt]

Radio said lefties are hitting a .140 against Greene. So naturally let’s start our lefty catcher.

 

[WaitingFor2017]

Only reason Baldwin is playing tonight is because the Reds are throwing a lefty tomorrow.

 

[msstate7]

So, Celtics vs Knicks tonight

 

[CyYoung31]

Night all.
