You're the guy who mocked and didn't believe those of us who knew the Nats division hopes were over during that fateful series in June where we gave the initial death blow.

Most everyone here is too young to remember the 1964 Phillies. They are exhibit #1 as to why I am very cautious about premature celebration.

Has one of those feelings where Scherzer strikes out 15 and we still sonehow win against their pen in the 8th and 9th.

For once I feel good about Tehearn pitching in a game of importance. He's been doing well.
 
The Braves now have the second largest division lead in baseball, after the Dodgers—at least for tonight.

Indeed—the Wild Card is still very much in play if the Braves can’t take care of business against the Phillies and Mets.

Which they've been doing all season. But, yeah, it ain't over till it's over. But if the Braves win one more game in this series, it's basically over.
 
I remember 2011 so I'm not celebrating until the math is certain. Derek Lowe that September was as bad a pitcher as I've ever seen.
 
Would be nice if Snit could use some other options and see who sticks.

Luke has been really bad and i have no confidence in him in big moments. O'Day would at least be nice to see what he can do. He's probably done but if he's actually not, he could be a really nice piece to use. Jeremy Walker did good in his few appearances as well.

Greene's probably unavailable on Saturday but everyone else should be good.

If the braves win tomorrow, should they consider skipping soroka Sunday?

Why?

He's gonna have to duel in the playoffs. Might as well have him do it against one of the best in the bigs. Short leash him if you want. I don't have faith in Snit doing either.
 
Does it feel like the Braves are just trolling the sand fleas this series. Letting them close enough to get hopes up just to slam it shut right in their stupid faces.
 
Is Donaldson going to be the teams best player this year? Shame he started later in his career because he is a hall of fame talent. Not sure if he gets in thiugh based on aggregate career numbers.

He needs to be extended. To something in reason of course.
